GE IS200BPVDG1BR1 VME Rack

الوصف

The GE IS200BPVDG1BR1 is a VME Rack Assembly manufactured by General Electric (GE) for use in their Speedtronic Mark VI series of industrial turbine control systems.

Unlike a single backplane board, the IS200BPVDG1BR1 is typically the complete rack chassis or mounting assembly that houses the backplane and provides the structural framework for the control system modules.

🏗️ Function and System Context

The primary function of the IS200BPVDG1BR1 VME Rack is to provide a unified, stable environment for the core control components of the Mark VI system.

• Structural Housing: It is a chassis designed to physically hold and protect the specialized electronic boards, cables, and power supplies.
• VME Compatibility: The term VME (Versa Module Eurocard) refers to the standard bus architecture used in this rack. The rack is designed to accept GE’s custom VME-style printed circuit boards (PCBs), such as the main processor card (like the VCMI) and various Input/Output (I/O) modules.
• Grounding: The rack assembly is designed to ensure proper grounding. The metal-to-metal contact under the mounting screws is engineered to effectively ground the rack to the mounting panel, which is crucial for system safety and signal integrity in industrial environments.
• Control Backbone: The rack typically contains a specific backplane board (like the IS200BPVCG1B or similar) which acts as the electrical “highway,” routing signals and power to all the modules plugged into it.
