Description
The GE IS200TBCIS2C is a terminal board used within the GE Mark VI Series gas turbine control systems, specifically for contact inputs. It plays a crucial role in acquiring digital on/off signals from various simple contact-based sensors and switches for the control system to process.
Here’s a breakdown of its functionalities and how you can find more information about it:
Function:
- The IS200TBCIS2C interfaces with various contact-based sensors and switches that provide digital (on/off) signals, such as:
- Pushbuttons for operator control.
- Limit switches for position indication.
- Pressure switches for safety interlocks.
- Vibration switches for fault detection.
- These sensors have an open or closed circuit, indicating an on/off state.
- The terminal board features:
- Screw terminals for secure connection of multiple contact-based sensors and switches.
- Internal circuitry that detects the open or closed state of each contact and converts it into a digital signal (typically high or low voltage) that the Mark VI system can understand.
Applications:
The IS200TBCIS2C is essential for the Mark VI system by:
- Enabling the acquisition of critical digital on/off data from various contact sensors and switches within the gas turbine.
- Providing a reliable interface between simple contact devices and the control system.
- Offering features like channel-to-channel isolation to minimize electrical noise and improve signal reliability (depending on the specific board revision).
