Functional Description

IS200SHRAH2ADC is a HART Enabled Analog Input/Output Terminal Board developed by GE. It is a part of Mark VIe control system. The terminal board is a compact and versatile analog input terminal designed to interface with the PHRA or YHRA pack within a system. It facilitates communication using HART protocol between the PHRA and HART-enabled field devices. Here's an expanded overview of its features and capabilities:

Analog Inputs and Outputs

Accommodates 10 analog inputs and two analog outputs.

• Analog Inputs: The board supports various types of analog transmitters including two-wire, three-wire, four-wire, or externally powered transmitters. This flexibility allows for versatile integration of different types of analog signals into the system.
• Analog Outputs: The two analog outputs are standardized as 4-20 mA. These outputs provide a reliable means for transmitting control signals or data to external devices or systems. HART Protocol Integration. The terminal board supports HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) protocol, enabling bi-directional communication between the PHRA or YHRA pack and HART-enabled field devices. This capability allows for advanced monitoring, diagnostics, and configuration of connected field devices, enhancing operational efficiency and maintenance capabilities.

Board Configuration

• Simplex Version: The board is available only in a simplex version, ensuring straightforward integration and operation within the system architecture.
• Compact Design and Mounting Options
• Compact Size: The board's compact design makes it suitable for space-constrained installations, such as within control cabinets or other industrial environments where space optimization is crucial.
• Mounting Flexibility: It supports DIN-rail mounting, which is common in industrial environments, ensuring easy installation and integration into existing control systems.

Installation

• Mounting Options: Along with a plastic insulator, is mounted on a sheet metal carrier. This carrier then securely mounts onto a DIN-rail. Alternatively, the SHRA with the insulator can be mounted on a sheet metal assembly and bolted directly to a cabinet. These mounting options provide flexibility depending on the specific installation requirements and environment.
• Terminal Block Options: Itutilizes a right-angle header that accepts a range of commercially available pluggable terminal blocks, also offering 48 terminals. This option provides flexibility for installations that may require different types of terminal blocks or where modular components are advantageous.
• Wire Size: Typically, 18 AWG wires (shielded twisted-pair) are used for wiring connections to the terminal board. This wire size ensures robust signal transmission and is commonly used in industrial applications for its durability and performance characteristics.
• I/O Cable Shield Termination: Adjacent to the terminal blocks, provisions are made for terminating the shield of the I/O cables. Proper termination of the shield helps to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensures reliable signal integrity, critical for accurate data transmission in industrial environments.
