Product Features

Reliable Communication Capability: GE IS200RAPAG1BBA is equipped with multiple Ethernet drivers. It has three 100 Mb Ethernet drivers for IONet, enabling each controller to communicate with up to 3 network switches. In redundant systems, it allows each controller to directly monitor redundant inputs and compare for any potential differences. Additionally, it has two Ethernet drivers for point - to - point communication on the control network with other Mark VI, Mark VIe, and EX2100 generator excitation controls, as well as operator and maintenance stations.

Powerful Data Processing: 667 MHz processor and a QNX operating system, it can quickly and efficiently process various data and control signals. It can handle the data from sensors connected to the terminal blocks on the board, analyze and process it in a timely manner, and provide accurate data support for the overall control system of the turbine, ensuring the stable operation of the turbine unit.

Strong Filtering and Protection: GE IS200RAPAG1BBA has built in extensive filtering and transient protection mechanisms. This feature ensures its proper operation in harsh industrial environments by effectively suppressing electromagnetic interference and transient over-voltage signals. The transient energy can be conducted back to the source through the filter ground terminal, and a separate safety ground terminal is provided for dielectric strength testing.

Installation

Prepare the Installation Environment: Select a clean, dry, and well - ventilated location in the control cabinet. Make sure the installation site is away from strong electromagnetic interference sources and has good heat dissipation conditions. Prepare the necessary tools, such as screwdrivers and wire strippers. GE IS200RAPAG1BBA can be installed on the base of the cabinet. For dual and triple redundant systems, the second and third boards can be installed adjacent to each other for a compact layout. Align the board with the mounting holes and use screws to fix it firmly, ensuring that the board is installed flat and stable.

Troubleshooting

Communication Failure: Check if the Ethernet cables are properly connected and whether there is any damage or looseness. Ensure that the network settings of GE IS200RAPAG1BBA, such as IP address and subnet mask, are correct. Check if the connected network devices, such as switches and other control units, are working properly. If the problem persists, try replacing the Ethernet cable or port to see if the issue can be resolved.

Data Processing Abnormality: If the data processing speed is slow or the processed data is inaccurate, first check if the processor is overloaded. Reduce the load on the processor if necessary. Check if the software and firmware of the board are up to date. Update the software and firmware if there are new versions available.

Power Supply Problem: If it fails to start or has abnormal operation, check if the power supply voltage is within the specified range of 18 - 36V DC. Check if the power supply circuit is intact and whether there is any short circuit or open circuit. If the power supply voltage is normal but the board still does not work properly, it may be that the power supply module on the board is faulty and needs to be replaced.

Application range

Gas Turbine Control: In the power generation industry, especially in gas turbine power plants, GE IS200RAPAG1BBA is an essential part of the control system. It monitors and controls the operation of gas turbines, such as adjusting the fuel supply and monitoring the rotation speed and temperature of the turbine. By precisely processing various sensor data, it helps to optimize the combustion process of the gas turbine, improve energy conversion efficiency, and ensure the safe and stable operation of the gas turbine generator set.

Steam Turbine Control: It is also widely used in steam turbine control systems. In thermal power plants, it plays a key role in controlling the steam turbine's startup, shutdown, and load adjustment processes. It monitors parameters such as the steam pressure, flow rate, and shaft displacement of the steam turbine, and adjusts the opening of the steam valve and other actuators in a timely manner to ensure the stable operation of the steam turbine and the quality of power generation.

Mechanical Drive Applications: In industrial production lines that require mechanical drive, such as in the metallurgical and petrochemical industries, it can be used to control and monitor the motors and transmission devices. It can ensure the accurate operation of the mechanical drive system, adjust the speed and torque of the motor according to the process requirements, and improve the production efficiency and product quality.
