About the IS200VPROH1A
The IS200VPROH1A is a circuit board component made by General Electric for use within their Mark VI gas/steam turbine control system series. The Mark VI is typically used for electrical generation or process plant applications, for the control of turbine speed, generator synchronization, turbine load control, and protection from loss of load. This IS200VPROH1A device's greater Mark VI Series is additionally seen as attractive on the greater general automated industrial marketplace as it is one of General Electric's final-developed Mark product series to utilize the patented Speedtronic control system technology first seen alongside the rollout of the initial Mark I Series in the mid to later 1960s. The Mark VI Series that this IS200VPROH1A product belongs to is actually a significant improvement upon the Mark V Turbine Control System Series that came before, as the Mark V Series' potential applications were limited to gas and steam turbine settings exclusively, whereas the Mark VI Series has been extended to alternative energy-based wind turbine automated assemblies as well.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The IS200VPROH1A functions as a Turbine Protection Module, specifically, as designated in originally-available instructional manual materials from General Electric. This board takes up more than one slot in the rack system. It provides emergency overspeed protection for turbines lacking a mechanical overspeed bolt. The module is designed to be separate from the rest of the turbine control system. In a TMR system, each of the VPRO boards has its own on-board power supply. The IS200VPROH1A controls trip solenoid boards using the TREG board. The Mark VI Turbine Control System Series that this IS200VPROH1A product belongs to is not detailed in any great depth of originally-printed instructional manual materials online, given the Mark VI Series' now-discontinued legacy series status. With this being true, this IS200VPROH1A device still benefits from its General Electric manufacture as it is in possession of the IS200VPROH1A functional product number indirectly detailing a number of relevant hardware component and component specification details. For example, the IS200VPROH1A functional product number starts off with the dual-functional IS200 series tag describing this IS200VPROH1A PCB's normal Mark VI Series assembly on top of its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other relevant details embedded in functional chunks of this product number include the IS200VPROH1A device's:
- VPRO functional product abbreviation
- Conformal PCB coating style
- Group one Mark VI Series product grouping
- A-rated functional product revision
The IS200VPROH1A has a very wide front faceplate that is populated with several lines of components. This includes LED indicators, a power switch, four D-shell cable connectors, an IONet port, and an Ethernet (male) plug port. The faceplate is marked with the GE logo and with the board identifying number. It connects to the circuit board using screw connections. The IS200VPROH1A has two board components that are stacked together. Both boards have two backplane connectors. The top board has a large heat sink attached to its surface. Both boards are populated with other components including resistors, test points, capacitors, integrated circuits, and transformers. For additional information regarding the IS200VPROH1A, its specifications, or for detailed installation procedures, please refer to GE documentation like user guides and manuals. AX Control may have copies of these documents available if your originals have been lost or misplaced. Before making any sole final purchase decision on this IS200VPROH1A product, it is important to understand that this IS200VPROH1A device is not the originally-designed product of its specific Mark VI Series functionality, as that would be the IS200VPROH1 parent Turbine Protection Module not utilizing this IS200VPROH1A product's sole A-rated functional product revision. Unfortunately, this IS200VPROH1A product has not been able to be photographed for the IS200VPROH1A personalized product page here, given its generally-low market availability.
