About the IS200SHRAH2A
This IS200SHRAH2A Mark VIe Series printed circuit board is better-definable by its functional description as a HART-enabled Input/Output Board, as it is referred to in original, product-centric instructional manual materials. This IS200SHRAH2A Input/Output board is attributable as a General Electric Mark VIe Series product, although it was actually originally mass-produced by GE Energy, the alternative energy-geared subsidiary manufacturer of the automated industrial giant General Electric. This IS200SHRAH2A printed circuit board or PCB for short additionally exists as a modified version of an already-developed Mark VIe Series Input/Output Board; altering the IS200SHRAH2 parent printed circuit board through its adoption of a singular, A-rated functional product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The IS200SHRAH2A HART-enabled Input/Output board is perhaps examined through the lens of its intended functionality within the greater Mark VIe Series. This IS200SHRAH2A PCB is an Input/Output board that accepts ten total analog inputs and two analog outputs, which allow for crucial interfacing between the IS200SHRAH2A PCB and the corresponding PHRA and YHRA I/O packs that also exist in the Mark VIe Series. This Input/Output Board incorporates the HART acronym into its functional description as a HART Input/Output Board as it allows for interfacing between the Mark VIe Series PHRA I/O pack and the HART Highway Addressable Remote Transducer.
Now that some of the intended functionality of this revised IS200SHRAH2A circuit board has been explained, it is possible to contextualize some of its hardware assembly inclusions and configurations. For starters, the IS200SHRAH2A board plugs into the greater Mark VIe Series assembly through the use of a D-type connector, communicating with the greater controller assembly with Ethernet communications. In terms of installation-minded hardware; the IS200SHRAH2A HART-enabled Input/Output board is mounted onto a plastic holder, which itself is mounted onto a sheet metal carrier for convenient installation on the DIN-rail mounting system. Considering this IS200SHRAH2A PCB's H2 series grouping tag, the IS200SHRAH2A PCB possesses a right-angle header ideal for the installation of a number of styles of pluggable terminal block options, although the most commonly-adopted type of terminal block in SHRA board assemblies are high-density Euro-block style terminal blocks.
This IS200SHRAH2A I/O board makes use of several manually-movable customizable jumpers in its assembly, for customization purposes. This IS200SHRAH2A PCB has twenty jumpers in total, with each jumper possessing its own individual hardware reference designator label. Each jumper or set of jumpers within this twenty has its own factory-specified customization function, ranging from voltage/current input selection to return to common connection; as specified in the IS200SHRAH2A datasheet attached above in the manuals tab. The right-angle header described above was discovered upon a diligent breakdown of the functional IS200SHRAH2A product number, which reveals a decent amount of product-specific hardware information, including this IS200SHRAH2A I/O boards' domestic manufacture, normal assembly type, SHRA functional acronym, conformal style of PCB protective coating, group two Mark VIe Series grouping, and A-rated functional product revision.
