GE Mark VIe Wind IS215WEMAH1A Printed Circuit Board

General Shipping and Revision Information

This IS215WEMAH1A printed circuit board is one that has been shrouded in relative mystery,

given its allegiance to the less-documented Mark VIe Wind Turbine Control System Series.

The Mark VIe Wind Turbine Series, while relatively new compared to many similar

General Electric legacy series printed circuit board available here at AX Control;

is quite the specialized series. The Mark VIe Wind Turbine Series was manufactured

by General Electric alternative energy shell company GE Energy,

which may be to blame for the lack of original, factory-printed instructional

materials for the IS215WEMAH1A PCB on the internet.

Unfortunately, this IS215WEMAH1A is known too for its generally-limited industrial

automation market availability, so a visual inspection of the hardware components

affixed to the base board of the IS215WEMAH1A is impossible at this time.

With that being said, a thorough, guided IS215WEMAH1A part number breakdown

can still yield quite a bit of valuable information to the prospective PCB buyer.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

The sole piece of information retrievable from original, manufacturer-issued manual

materials concerning this product specifically only defines this PCB's status

as a WEMA and BPPS board assembly.

This defined name, however, does provide several clues to the knowledgeable Mark VIe drive administrator.

The IS215 tag at the beginning of the individualized IS215WEMAH1A

product number indicates that this PCB has a special assembly version.

This is more likely than not due to this assembly's incorporation of

the previously mentioned BPPB option board, along with the WEMA board itself

The IS215 tag present at the beginning of this part number actually has dual naming functionality

additionally asserting the IS215WEMAH1A assembly's domestically-manufactured status

The WEMA functional acronym makes an appearance in the IS215WEMAH1A part number,

following its IS215 series tag was created with the intention of use as a convenient industry shorthand

is immediately followed by the "H1" series grouping tag in the IS215WEMAH1A product number

The H1 series grouping tag, similarly to the IS215 series tag, has dual naming functionality;

classifying the WEMA and BPPS Board Assembly as a Mark VIe board with group

one series grouping that is protected by a conformal style of PCB protective coating.

While the true meaning of a group one series grouping within the Mark VIe Wind 

Turbine Control Series has been lost in verbatim, the conformal style of PCB coating

specific to this product has been well-documented.

As opposed to the thicker normal style of PCB coating, conformal printed circuit board coating is a thin,

chemically-applied layer of PCB protective coating that should envelop the entirety

of every surface on every component affixed to the base board of the IS215WEMAH1A WEMA and BPPS Board Assembly.

A final trailing "A" digit in the personalized IS215WEMAH1A product number reveals 

to the drive administrator this product's singular functional revision, which carries an "A" rating.
