About the IS200AEPAH1A
The IS200AEPAH1A is a PCB component manufactured by GE for the Mark VIe series. This series is part of the Speedtronic line for steam/gas turbine control created by General Electric in the 1960s and released in various forms since then, although this IS200AEPAH1A model has been specified for wind turbine applications particularly. This printed circuit board can be more exactly defined as an Alternative Energy Pitch Axis, and is a revised version of the original IS200AEPAH1 parent printed circuit board. The IS200AEPAH1A modifies the IS200AEPAH1 parent board through its inclusion of a sole functional revision, in this case rated at an "A" grade.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The IS200AEPAH1A is built with an optional auxiliary board, which is attached to the IS200AEPAH1A through the use of several screws inserted into standoffs. The IS200AEPAH1A communicates with its main corresponding processor board via connections to two male pin connectors in the upper left corner. This board is populated with multiple integrated circuits, two female phone plugs, a three-pin female connector, and two light emitting diodes. This AEPA-abbreviated board also features a couple of LED indicators, located along the left edge of the base board. Before making a purchase decision for the IS200AEPAH1A Alternative Energy Pitch Axis, it may be important to to considered the different Input and Output types compatible with this model. The I/O types supported by this AEPA-abbreviated model include:
- 8 analog inputs
- 1 incremental encoder input
- 1 absolute encoder input
- 1 analog output
- 20 discrete inputs
- 1 discrete output
- 8 relay outputs
- 2 RS-485 interfaces
- 1 brake control output
Note that the various input and output versions present here are exactly similar to those featured in the Mark VIe Series' BPPB component printed circuit board, also available for purchase here through AX Control. In addition to the various I/O types featured on the IS200AEPAH1A, this Mark VIe series PCB has twelve relays, and is built with six metal oxide varistors, for important surge protection applications. These varistors are placed in a single line. Varistors can be succinctly defined as variable resistors with resistance dependent on the applied voltage. The AEPA board has seventeen female-pin vertical connectors located along the edges of the board. These connectors vary from two pins up to twenty pins. Finally, the IS200AEPAH1A board makes use of several large factory-made holes in its surface, most of which are plated for voltage storage and protection.
As with many other Mark VIe series printed circuit boards, this Alternative Energy Pitch Axis includes hundreds of standard integrated circuits, resistors, transistors, and capacitors in its assembly, although a single unique c-shaped metal housing is placed on the board, marked HW1. Please refer to original, factory-issued manuals or data sheets for safe and convenient installation guidelines. Our AX Control Shipping team will use anti-static material to protect the IS200AEPAH1A during shipment. We recommend the use of a grounding strap during unboxing and installation, for supreme lethal voltage protection. As this IS200AEPAH1A product is a General Electric device, many of its originally-available instructional manual materials have been destroyed or recalled by their original manufacturer in the numerous years following its original Mark product series rollout. With this being the case, this IS200AEPAH1A device's functional product number serves to exist as a decent supplementary source of IS200AEPAH1A Board hardware component and component specification details, including this IS200AEPAH1A product's normal Mark VIe Series assembly version, domestic location of original manufacture, AEPA functional product acronym, conformal PCB coating style, group one Mark VIe Series product grouping, and finally, its sole, A-rated functional product revision.
