Description

GE IS200STCCH2A Thermocouple Input Terminal Board

 

The IS200STCCH2A is a high-performance thermocouple input terminal board designed by General Electric (GE) for its Mark VIe turbine control system. This module serves as a critical component in industrial automation, enabling precise temperature monitoring and control in demanding environments such as power generation, oil & gas, and manufacturing. With its advanced signal conditioning capabilities and robust design, the IS200STCCH2A ensures seamless integration and reliable operation in turbine control applications.

1. Product Description

The IS200STCCH2A is a compact, DIN-rail mountable module featuring 16 isolated thermocouple input channels for direct connection to Type J, K, T, E, R, S, or B thermocouples. It supports cold-junction compensation (CJC) to ensure accurate temperature measurements and includes digital filtering to reduce noise interference. The module also incorporates overvoltage protection via Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) and optical isolation to prevent ground loops, enhancing system reliability. By integrating with GE’s Mark VIe control platform, the IS200STCCH2A streamlines temperature data acquisition and reduces commissioning time.

6. Selection Recommendations

  • Temperature Range: Choose the IS200STCCH2A if your application requires -200°C to 1,800°C temperature monitoring.
  • Thermocouple Types: Opt for this module if your project uses multiple thermocouple types (e.g., J, K, T) and requires flexible channel configuration.
  • Redundancy Needs: Ideal for TMR systems in critical environments, ensuring uninterrupted temperature monitoring.

7. Precautions

  • Installation: Use twisted-pair cables for thermocouple signals to minimize EMI interference. Securely mount the module in a vibration-free environment.
  • Maintenance: Calibrate the module annually to ensure accuracy. Clean dust from the module quarterly to prevent overheating.
  • Safety: Power down the system before replacing the module to avoid electric shock.
