About the IS200STAIS2ACB
General Electric developed the IS200STAIS2ACB to be one of many components in the Mark VI series for industrial gas and steam turbine control and automation. The Mark VI, like all of the series in the Mark lineup, was created to address all of the needs of turbine operations, including alternative energy-based wind turbine automated drive assemblies; a significant upgrade upon the more-restricted potential application ranges of the previously-developed Mark V Turbine Control System Series of the full extended series name. These series have been in use by various industries around the globe since the Mark I debuted in 1969. The Mark I Turbine Control System Series housing this IS200STAIS2ACB product is additionally seen as desirable on its greater automated industrial marketplace given its status as one of the final-produced GE Mark product series to utilize the patented Speedtronic control system technology first seen with the rollout of the Mark I Series in the mid to later 1960s; most likely 1969 as well.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The IS200STAIS2ACB is a printed circuit board (PCB) or printed circuit card which is in the shape of a rectangle. Almost the entire left border of the IS200STAIS2ACB has been taken up by two (2) large green terminal blocks. These terminal blocks contain a series of terminals which are in the shape of a cube and comprised of silver metal. Forty-eight (48) terminals may be seen on the IS200STAIS2ACB in total, or twenty-four (24) within each terminal block. Attached to the opposite end of the IS200STAIS2ACB on the right is a black and silver connector port. This device is useful for attaching more components or circuit cards to the IS200STAIS2ACB. Centered on the IS200STAIS2ACB is a long vertical row of components. Ten (10) potentiometers that are solid black are situated in this area in a vertical line. Four (4) additional potentiometers have been grouped together in the lower right corner. Ten (10) transistors that are black and in the shape of half circles are also lined up in the center of the IS200STAIS2ACB. Paired together with every transistor is a solid black jumper. Every jumper is used to connect together at least two (2) total metal jumper pins.
This IS200STAIS2ACB Analog Card was manufactured for General Electric's Mark VI Turbine Control System Series, as originally iterated in the brief IS200STAIS2ACB product description inserted above on this IS200STAIS2ACB personalized product page here. Because of this attribution, this IS200STAIS2ACB device is actually not followed online by any high amount of originally-printed instructional manual materials, likely as a functional of the Mark VI Series' status as one of the final-developed GE Mark product series that is oftentimes infringed upon online by second-party resellers. With this being the case, this IS200STAIS2ACB device does still benefit from its General Electric product attribution as it makes use of the IS200STAIS2ACB functional product number specially designed to illustrate a series of relevant IS200STAIS2ACB Board details through its characteristic set of consecutively-arranged functional naming elements. For instance, this IS200STAIS2ACB product's functional product number begins through a standard inclusion of the IS200 series grouping tag responsible for describing this IS200STAIS2ACB product's normal Mark VI Series assembly version on top of its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other pertinent hardware details revealed in this fashion include this IS200STAIS2ACB product's:
- STAI functional product abbreviation
- Special PCB coating style
- Group 2 Mark VI Series product grouping
- Three-fold revision history
