About the IS210BAPAH1A
The IS210BAPAH1A functions as an Analog Processor module. It is a component for the Mark VI or the Mark VIe systems. Both of these systems are from GE and have been designed to manage steam or gas turbines. The Mark VI is designed with central control, with the heart of the system being a Central Control Module with 13- or 21-slot VME card racks. This platform can be used for the integration of power island and balance of plant controls. Conversely, the Mark VIe is a distributed control system with control processing spread throughout the system via nodes. These nodes are then kept under the control of a central scheduler.
Along with a SAMB terminal board, the IS210BAPAH1A makes up an Acoustic Monitoring Input pack. This pack supports dynamics for frame 6/7/9 gas turbines. The IS210BAPAH1A is built into a narrow black housing with openings at both the top and bottom to allow for air flow. The rear surface includes top and bottom flanges with mounting holes cut in their surface. The front faceplate has a single jack connector and two sets of LED indicators.
Configuration and diagnostics for the IS210BAPAH1A can be run through the ToolboxST application. The acoustic monitoring pack can calculate the broadband root-mean-square (RMS) energy of the time-domain sampled data in a frequency range of 0 to 5000 Hz. It can also take an RMS scan average and a peak-to-peak scan average. More information about the pack, its installation, and function, as well as handling guidelines, may be found through manufacturer publications (user guides/manuals/datasheets.)
