Certifications: CE, UL 508; EMC: IEC 61000-4-2/3/4/5/6 Level 3; Vibration: IEC 60068-2-6, 2 g, 5–500 Hz; Shock: IEC 60068-2-27, 15 g, 11 ms
Key Features: Enables closed-loop control and protection of the gas-turbine field circuit; IS215GFOIH1AB achieves ±0.05% full-scale accuracy, outperforming conventional modules (±0.1%); 3 kV RMS isolation (for IS215GFOIH1AB) withstands extreme power plant conditions including high temperatures, EMI, and voltage surges, reducing downtime by over 90% compared to standard modules.
Compatibility: IS215GFOIH1AB is downward compatible with IS215GFOIH1A; update ToolboxST HW description after swap. IS200GFOIH1A (Mark VI version) is not interchangeable with IS215 versions due to different back-plane, software, and terminal boards.
Related Components: Terminal boards: IS200TGOIH1A, IS200TGOIH2A, IS400TGOIH1A; Cable assembly: IS200WGOIH2A (12-core shielded, 3 m / 6 m / 9 m); Main processors: IS215UCVEH2A (Mark VIe), IS200VTURH2A (Mark VI).
Software Support: Mark VIe: ToolboxST v7.0 or later (auto-detects HW revision); Mark VI: configured via CIMPLICITY.
Working Principle: The board provides field voltage and current sampling, processes speed and synchronizing inputs, and generates 6-channel SCR gating pulses for the exciter rectifier bridge, enabling closed-loop control and protection of the gas-turbine field circuit.
