Functional Description

IS215PMVPH1A is an I/O Module developed by GE. It is a part of Mark VIe control system. In Mark VIe systems, the I/O packs comprise two essential components- the generic processor board and the data acquisition board, which varies depending on the connected device type. These packs, situated on each terminal board, are pivotal in the system's functionality. They digitize signals from sensors and transducers, execute specialized control algorithms, and facilitate communication with the central Mark VIe controller. By performing these tasks, the I/O packs ensure smooth integration and operation of connected devices within the broader control system, contributing to the system's overall efficiency and effectiveness.

Terminal Blocks Features

Terminal blocks are essential components within control systems, facilitating the flow of signals from sensors to the boards. Two primary types of terminal boards are available, each serving specific functions.

T-type terminal boards features

• Two 24-point barrier-type terminal blocks
• Accommodation for two 3.0 mm (12AWG) wires per point
• Captive clamps for bare wire termination
• Screw spacing of 9.53 mm (0.375 in) minimum
• S-Type Terminal Boards

S-type terminal boards features

• Half the size of T-type boards
• Support for one I/O pack
• Two versions: fixed and removable terminal blocks
• Acceptance of one 2.05 mm (12AWG) wire or two 1.63 mm (#14AWG) wires per point
• Screw spacing of 5.08 mm (0.2 in) minimum

Board Arrangement and Mounting

• Terminal boards are arranged in vertical columns, allowing access from top and/or bottom cable entrances.
• Wide boards may contain specialized components like magnetic relays with fused circuits for solenoid drivers. While T-type boards are typically standard-base mounted, they can also be DIN-rail mounted for flexible installation configurations.

Mark VIe I/O features

• Two primary types of I/O modules are utilized within control systems:
  
  • General-purpose I/O: Versatile and applicable to both turbine operations and general process control.
  • Turbine-specific I/O: Tailored for direct interfacing with unique turbine sensors and actuators, minimizing the need for interposing instrumentation.
• Benefits of Turbine-Specific I/O
  • Reduction or elimination of interposing instrumentation streamlines the control system, enhancing operational efficiency.
  • Mitigation of potential single point failures in critical areas improves running reliability and reduces long-term maintenance requirements.
  • Direct interfacing with sensors and actuators enables more effective diagnostics, allowing for direct interrogation of equipment devices.
  • Data obtained from direct device interrogation enhances analysis of device and system performance, optimizing overall system operation and maintenance strategies.
