More Information

Overview Manuals I/O Architecture Signal Conditioning Diagnostics Applications

Features:

  • Converts twenty field inputs to digital data and regulates four analog output channels on one Mark VI VME board.
  • Supports simplex or triple modular redundant signal paths through paired TBAI terminal boards.
  • Provides a dedicated 200 Hz path on the first four inputs for faster turbine-protection measurements.
Ten inputs and two outputs terminate on each TBAI board, keeping the field-side channel split consistent across the J3 and J4 cable connections.

Loop transmitters may use the terminal board's 24 VDC excitation or an independent supply, so powered and externally powered instruments can share the analog interface.

The exact IS200VAICH1C assembly is listed for Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D, T4 locations when it is installed within the approved Mark VI configuration.

For installed-base maintenance, Apter Power can source the General Electric IS200VAICH1C VME Analog Input/Output Board for compatible SPEEDTRONIC Mark VI racks.

Field-interface arrangement

  • Terminal-board split: Each TBAI board carries ten analog inputs and two analog outputs.
  • Cable paths: J3 and J4 connect the VME board to the two field terminal assemblies.
  • Input grouping: Sixteen channels accept standard current or voltage signals, with separate ranges assigned to the remaining four paths.
  • Excitation choice: Two-wire transmitters can be powered from the Mark VI 24 VDC source or from an independent supply.
  • Redundant routing: A TMR installation fans each field signal to the R, S, and T processor racks.

Filtering and measurement behavior

  • Accepted spans: Channel configuration covers 4-20 mA, ±1 mA, ±5 VDC, and ±10 VDC signals.
  • J3 filtering: The first cable group uses a single hardware pole at 500 rad/s.
  • J4 filtering: The second cable group applies two hardware poles at 72 and 500 rad/s.
  • Software selection: Low-pass corner choices are 0, 0.75, 1.5, 3, 6, or 12 Hz.
  • Noise rejection: Common-mode rejection is 60 dB for 60 Hz AC and 80 dB for DC.

Fault recognition and isolation

  • LED interpretation: RUN flashes green during normal execution, FAIL shows a solid red board fault, and STATUS turns orange for an active board alarm.
  • Hardware limits: Exceeding a fixed channel limit sets the composite L3DIAG_VAIC signal and suspends scanning of the affected input.
  • System limits: Configurable high and low thresholds may be reset independently through RESET_SYS logic.
  • TMR comparison: The voter identifies a channel whose value departs from the other two by more than the configured percentage of span.
  • Output supervision: D/A commands, measured current, total current, scaling relays, and the suicide relay are monitored for consistency.
  • Hardware identity: A terminal-board catalog or revision mismatch is reported before incompatible field hardware is placed in service.

Compressor-protection use

  • LM turbine arrangement: Two compressor-discharge pressure transducers feed the high-speed input group for stall detection.
  • Heavy-duty arrangement: Three pressure measurements provide the corresponding detection channels on larger turbine packages.
  • Decision variables: The logic evaluates both an absolute PS3 decrease and the rate of pressure change, dPS3dt.
  • Protective response: When the configured criteria are met, the board's measurements support trip coordination through the controller and relay outputs.
Description
Analog conversion for SPEEDTRONIC Mark VI gas- and steam-turbine control racks is handled by the General Electric IS200VAICH1C VME Analog Input/Output Board, which links field circuits with the VCMI/controller path.

Current and voltage measurements passing through IS200VAICH1C are converted to digital values for control processing, while commanded values return through its D/A path as regulated customer output currents.

In triple modular redundant service, terminal-board signals fan out to R, S, and T racks, with one IS200VAICH1C in each path. If one output channel becomes faulty, that board is removed from participation and the remaining two continue producing the selected current; a simplex arrangement uses one board for the complete output current.

As the final member of the earlier VAIC generation, IS200VAICH1C operates with TBAIH1B or earlier terminal boards and with every DTAI revision. This compatibility boundary distinguishes it from the later VAICH1D generation.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
What should be checked before installing IS200VAICH1C in an existing Mark VI rack?
Confirm that IS200VAICH1C will connect to TBAIH1B or an earlier TBAI board, or to any DTAI revision; do not assume compatibility with the later TBAIH1C/STAI generation.
Why does IS200VAICH1C report the L3DIAG_VAIC composite alarm?
A hardware input limit has been exceeded. The affected IS200VAICH1C channel stops scanning until the signal is corrected and the latched diagnostic is reset.
How should a TMR disagreement on IS200VAICH1C be investigated?
Compare the three voted channel values and review the configured TMR_DiffLimit as a percentage of span before replacing IS200VAICH1C.
What happens when an IS200VAICH1C analog output fault persists?
Persistent output-path faults can operate the suicide relay, disconnecting the faulty IS200VAICH1C output so healthy TMR channels remain in control.
Why can IS200VAICH1C reject a replacement terminal board?
The terminal-board ID chip must match the configured hardware. A part-number or hardware-revision mismatch is reported by IS200VAICH1C and should be corrected before service.
What should be verified if IS200VAICH1C does not enter RUN after installation?
De-energize the rack, reseat IS200VAICH1C, tighten its captive screws, latch J3 and J4 securely, then review RUN, FAIL, and STATUS indications after power is restored.
How can IS200VAICH1C be used when a turbine protection loop needs faster sampling?
Route the required signals to inputs 1 through 4 on IS200VAICH1C for 200 Hz acquisition; the remaining channels use the normal 100 Hz scan.
