The GE IS230SNTCH2A is a thermocouple input module assembly for the GE Mark VIe control system. This assembly consists of a STTCH2A terminal board and a PTCCH1B I/O pack. It’s designed to read temperature signals from thermocouples and convert them into a digital format the controller can use.
Key Features
- Thermocouple Input: The module’s primary function is to accurately measure temperatures using thermocouples. Thermocouples are a common type of temperature sensor used in industrial environments due to their ruggedness and wide temperature range.
- PTCCH1B I/O Pack: This is the core component of the assembly, housing the electronics that process the low-voltage signals from thermocouples and perform cold junction compensation to ensure accurate temperature readings.
- STTCH2A Terminal Board: This board provides the physical wiring connections for the thermocouples, ensuring a secure and organized interface for installation.
- Mark VIe Integration: As a component of the IS230 series, this module is designed to seamlessly integrate with the Mark VIe control platform, ensuring reliable and high-performance temperature monitoring.
Applications
The IS230SNTCH2A is vital in industrial settings that require precise and reliable temperature monitoring.
- Power Generation: It’s used in power plants to monitor critical temperatures on gas and steam turbines, such as exhaust gas temperatures and bearing temperatures, which are essential for safe and efficient operation.
- Oil and Gas: In refineries and offshore platforms, it’s used to measure temperatures in pipes, reactors, and furnaces, helping to ensure process safety and efficiency.
- Industrial Automation: It’s a fundamental component in many manufacturing processes where temperature control is critical for product quality and safety.
