Description
Because the available sources conflict or provide only a catalog listing, the technical fields below are limited to information that can be reasonably supported rather than filling unsupported values.
Product Identification
The exact number 517-0224-16A-458525 appears in current GE automation-parts catalogs as a control board, and one current listing categorizes it within its GE PLC module inventory.
Another supplier lists the complete number as a GE module, while its surrounding catalog includes legacy GE PLC, VME, WESDAC, and industrial-control hardware.
There is also evidence that the part is actively searched and quoted in the industrial automation market as a GE PLC 4-interface link controller module, but this description comes from marketplace buyer activity rather than an OEM technical document and should not be treated as a confirmed engineering specification.
Procurement Notes
For a replacement purchase, the complete 517-0224-16A-458525 identification should be matched against the installed board. This is particularly important for older GE hardware where a long-form assembly number can encode a specific hardware revision or factory configuration.
Recommended verification points include:
| Verification Item | Procurement Purpose |
|---|---|
| Full part number | Prevents substitution with a visually similar board |
| 458525 suffix | Helps identify the exact assembly/configuration |
| Board revision | Hardware revisions may differ |
| Connector layout | Confirms physical fit and system wiring |
| Installed rack/system | Establishes the correct GE platform |
| EPROM/firmware markings | Important for legacy controller compatibility |
| Existing board photos | Useful for confirming connector and component arrangement |
| Nameplate / serial number | Supports exact-unit identification |

Lifecycle Considerations
The part is consistently presented as legacy GE automation hardware, and current availability appears to be through specialist industrial inventory rather than a conventional current-product catalog.
I would not publish an exact voltage, channel count, processor, memory capacity, or communication protocol for this part without the applicable GE drawing or a clear nameplate because the searchable sources do not provide sufficiently reliable evidence for those specifications.
FAQ
What is GE 517-0224-16A-458525?
It is listed as a GE industrial PLC/control board used with legacy automation hardware.
Is 517-0224-16A-458525 a complete PLC?
The available listings identify it as a module/control board, not a complete standalone PLC system. Its exact role within the host system should be verified.
What are the electrical specifications?
Reliable public OEM specifications were not located for this exact part number, so voltage, I/O, communications, and power values should be confirmed from the original GE documentation or the physical unit.
Is it still available?
Current specialist automation suppliers continue to list the exact part number, indicating secondary-market availability.
What should be checked before ordering?
Match the complete part number, board revision, connector arrangement, system/rack type, and firmware or memory configuration against the installed unit.
