GE IS210TCSAS1A - CORE PROTECTION TERM BOARD

A proven and safe solution

GE brings decades of domain expertise to the Mark VIeS Functional Safety

System. The Mark series of controllers has earned a reputation for superior running 

reliability and superior tripping reliability when required in thousands of TMR 

systems installed in power generation and infrastructure applications globally. These 

proven philosophies are atthe heart of the Mark VIeS Functional Safety System.

Flexibility and reliability Redundancy is a critical feature in safety control system design,

enabling continuous process operation during system maintenance or repair. 

Functional Description

The Analog I/O pack (PAIC) is an electrical interface that connects one or two I/O Ethernet networks to an analog input terminal board. 

The PAIC includes a BPPx processor board as well as an acquisition board dedicated to the analog I/O function.

The module has ten analog inputs. The first eight inputs can be set to 5 V or 10 V or 4-20 mA current loop inputs. 

The final two inputs can be set to 1 mA or 4-20 mA current inputs.

The load terminal resistors for current loop inputs are located on the terminal board, and the PAIC senses voltage across these resistors. 

PAICH2 has two current loop outputs ranging from 0 to 20 mA.

 It also includes additional hardware that allows for 0-200 mA current on the first output only.

The I/O pack receives and sends data to the controller via dual RJ-45 Ethernet connectors and is powered by a three-pin connector. 

Field devices are communicated with via a DC-37 pin connector that connects directly to the associated terminal board.

LED indicator lights provide visual diagnostics.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

This pack has an internally placed BPPx processor board as well as an acquisition board that is used for thermocouple input functions.

Before even considering any ultimate purchase decision on this IS220PTCCH1A device, 

it is crucial to understand the fact that this IS220PTCCH1A device is actually not the originally-developed product of its specific Mark V Series intended functional role, 

as that would in fact be the IS220PTCCH1 parent Thermocouple Input Module noticeably not adopting this IS220PTCCH1A device's sole A-rated functional product revision. 

The IS220PTCCH1A can be used in simplex, duplex, and triple modular redundant applications.

This board can support E, J, K, S, and T standard thermocouples as well as mV inputs with a span of -8 to 45 mV.  E, J, K, S, and T thermocouples 

can be either grounded or ungrounded and can be located up to 984 feet from the turbine I/O panel.  Cable resistance must be kept to a maximum 450 Ω. 

The number of packs used dictate the following:

Qty 1 IS220PTCCH1A - 12 Thermocouple Inputs

Qty 2 IS220PTCCH1A - 24 Thermocouple Inputs

Qty 3 IS220PTCCH1A - Used in TMR Configurations
