The GE IS230STAIH4A is a basic analog I/O assembly for the GE Mark VIe control system. This module operates in a simplex configuration, making it a fundamental component for managing analog signals from and to a process.
Key Features
- Analog I/O: The module is designed to handle both analog inputs (from sensors like pressure, temperature, and flow transmitters) and analog outputs (to devices like valves and actuators). This makes it a versatile tool for controlling and monitoring continuous processes.
- Simplex Configuration: The term “simplex” means the module is a single, non-redundant unit. This is a common and cost-effective solution for applications where a single point of failure won’t lead to a catastrophic event. It’s often used for less critical monitoring or control loops.
- Mark VIe Integration: As part of the IS230 series, this assembly is designed to seamlessly integrate with the Mark VIe control platform. It acts as a reliable interface between the physical process and the main controller, converting analog signals into digital data and vice-versa.
Applications
The IS230STAIH4A is used in various industrial settings that require reliable analog control and monitoring.
- Power Generation: It’s used in power plants to monitor and control continuous variables on gas and steam turbines, such as fuel flow rates, lubrication oil pressure, and valve positions.
- Oil and Gas: In refineries and offshore platforms, it helps manage critical process variables, including the level of fluids in tanks, pressure in pipelines, and the position of control valves.
- Industrial Automation: The module is a fundamental component in many manufacturing processes that rely on automated control for efficiency and product quality.
