About the IS230TNCIH4C
This IS230TNCIH4C Modular Assembly product offering was originally designed and manufactured for General Electric's Mark VI Turbine Control System Series as should have been made obvious above; the Mark VI Series that this IS230TNCIH4C Modular Assembly device belongs to pertains to a specific set of functional applications in the control and management systems of popular and GE-compatible gas, steam, and wind turbine automated drive assemblies.This has to be heralded as quite the noteworthy functional upgrade upon the previous industry-standard Mark V Turbine Control System Series of a similar full title, as this IS230TNCIH4C Modular Assembly product's Mark VI Series was developed to expand the Mark V Series' rudimentary gas and steam turbine-based application range to include the alternative energy-focused wind turbine application.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The IS230TNCIH4C board is marketed by General Electric as a printed circuit board. This circuit board can be mounted in either a thirteen or twenty-one VME slot-type rack. It will typically be used with a control module when used in a simplex architecture type system but if the chosen architecture is triple redundant it will be used with an IONet, main processor card, and the control module. There are two main communication types that the TNCI model can be used with, these are the Unit Data Highway, which is an Ethernet-based LAN type of communication, and an IONet communication. Please note that the UDH communication driver will typically be associated with the main processor card located within the Mark VI System. The IS230TNCIH4C Modular Assembly functional product number actually codes for a number of important IS230TNCIH4C Modular Assembly device hardware qualities through a series of consecutive functional naming chunks. For instance, this IS230TNCIH4C Modular Assembly functional product number begins with an inclusion of the dual-functional IS230 series tag telling of this IS230TNCIH4C Modular Assembly product's special modular Mark VI Series assembly on top of its domestic GE manufacture location. Some other IS230TNCIH4C Modular Assembly details indicated like this are its:
- TNCI functional abbreviation
- Conformal PCB coating
- Group Four Mark VI Series grouping
- C-rated revision
While the IS230TNCIH4C board is made up of over a dozen capacitors, resistors, and even more small components, the main visual components of this model are the two terminal blocks, three sub-D pin connectors, two female plug-type connectors, and the metal oxide varistors for which there are twenty-five. The two terminal blocks are labeled TB1 and TB2 and are located near the bottom edge of the board, the metal oxide varistors are located just above the two terminal blocks. The three sub-D pin connectors, which are located near the top edge of the board, are each made up of thirty-seven pins. As mentioned above the IS230TNCIH4C model will be used with a control module but in some circumstances, it is required that a backup protection module also be used.
