GE IS200TRPGH1BDD
The GE IS200TRPGH1BDD is a primary trip and flame detector terminal board within the Mark VI Speedtronic Turbine Control System. It executes critical emergency shutdown commands by driving trip solenoids and continuously monitoring flame detector circuits.

-
Engineering Advantages:
-
High-current solenoid actuation: Stable –125 VDC overcomes mechanical resistance of heavy-duty trip solenoids for instantaneous valve closure during emergencies
-
Consolidated flame surveillance: 8 independent flame detector inputs enable 2-out-of-3 voting logic, preventing nuisance trips while maintaining safety
-
Deterministic fault isolation: Robust electrical isolation protects the VME backplane and processor from field-side voltage spikes
-
Solid-state reliability: Eliminates contact wear, significantly extending MTBF in high-vibration turbine environments
-
-
Working Principle: The board receives trip commands from the Mark VI controller, drives –125 VDC to trip solenoids through force-guided voting relays, and simultaneously monitors 8 flame detector circuits. If a solenoid circuit shorts, the board identifies the fault locally, preventing damage propagation to the wider control network.
-
Installation Requirements: Mount in VME rack; verify –125 VDC output matches solenoid ratings in Speedtronic Toolbox software; the H1BDD revision is backward-compatible with most Mark VI TRPG applications but I/O configuration must be verified.
-
Usage Notes: Handle with ESD protection; confirm TMR voting configuration in software; the BDD variant offers enhanced coating and component screening for extreme environments.
