Product Brief Description

The GE 369B1868G0008 is an Analog Input Terminal Board designed to be used in industrial control systems, specifically for the GE Mark VIe platform. Unlike the previous module, its primary role is to act as the physical connection point for analog sensors that output signals in the form of milliamps (mA) or volts (V). This provides a robust and reliable interface for a variety of process variables beyond just temperature, such as pressure, flow, and level.

Detailed Product Description

This module, identified by part number 369B1868G0008, is a critical component for a distributed control system using the GE Mark VI or VIe series. It serves as a high-density signal interface, receiving standard industrial analog signals from up to 16 separate channels (16CHs). The signals it processes are typically either a 4-20mA current loop or a 0-10V voltage signal, which are common standards for industrial instrumentation. The terminal board converts these analog signals into a digital format, protecting the sensitive electronic circuits of the controller from electrical noise and voltage spikes. This allows the system to accurately read and monitor real-world process data.
