Functional Description
IS230TRLSH1B is an Relay Output Assembly Module designed and developed by GE. It is a part of Mark VIe control system. The component is DIN-Rail mounted. A simplex relay output assembly module is a device used in industrial automation and control systems. It provides a means of switching electrical loads on and off using a relay. The module typically consists of a printed circuit board with a relay mounted on it, along with the necessary components to drive the relay. The module also includes terminals for connecting the load and control signals.
Product Features
- On the board, there are seven MOVs. If a vertical connection is desired, plug connectors are available. It can be used in conjunction with the Mark VI system's main control module as well as a backup protection module.
- In a triple architecture application, the TRLS module will be used in conjunction with the previously mentioned control module, as well as the IONet and main processor card. When connected to any type of rack, whether a twenty-one or thirteen-slot VME rack, this module will only take up one slot. The model's main visual components include, but are not limited to, metal oxide varistors, sub-D pin connectors, female plug connectors, and many others.
- During a visual inspection of this board, it is clear that there are two I/O packs on the board. These packs are labeled as discrete output packs and are connected via two sub-D pin connectors. These packs and connectors are located along one edge of the board, depending on how the board is held horizontally, on the top or bottom of the board.
- On the opposite side of the board, there are two terminal blocks labeled TB1 and TB2. These two terminals are near the metal oxide varistors, of which there are seven. This component also includes flanges that are oriented upward and downward.
Characteristics
- Double the I/O Packs for Versatility: This I/O module comes equipped with not one, but two I/O packs. This dual-pack configuration enhances its versatility, allowing it to handle a wider range of input and output signals, thus making it a valuable asset in various applications.
- Guarding Against Voltage Surges: With the inclusion of seven metal oxide varistors, this module stands as a guardian against voltage spikes and surges. These varistors play a pivotal role in safeguarding the connected components, ensuring their reliability and extending their longevity. This protection translates into peace of mind for operators and minimized risks of system disruptions.
- Reliable Control with 12 Relays: The module boasts an impressive array of 12 relays. These relays serve as efficient switches for high-current loads, allowing precise control over external devices. Whether it's managing motors, heaters, or other high-current equipment, this module steps up to the task with ease and precision.
- Stable and Secure Connections with Terminal Blocks
The inclusion of two terminal blocks, labeled TB1 and TB2, further enhances the module's appeal. These terminal blocks simplify the wiring process, enabling convenient and secure connections for the connected devices. Their robust design ensures stable connections, reducing the risk of unwanted disconnections and system downtime.
- Efficient External Device Control: A relay output assembly is integrated into the module, offering an efficient and reliable solution for controlling external devices. Whether it's triggering alarms, activating safety measures, or managing critical equipment, this module provides the means to do so with confidence.
- SIL Certification for Safety Assurance: Safety is paramount in critical applications, and this module delivers with its SIL certification. This certification ensures that the module meets the highest safety standards, making it a trustworthy choice for use in critical environments where reliability and safety are non-negotiable.
- Simplex Configuration for Specific Needs: While it excels in various aspects, it's important to note that this module is designed as a simplex module. It may not be compatible with TMR (Triple Modular Redundancy) setups, but its reliability and features make it a solid choice for specific control system requirements.
