The GE IS400JPGPA1ACD is a critical support board in GE’s Mark VI Distributed Control System, designed to complement Core Analog modules and terminal boards like TCAS/TCAT. Its primary role is to provide essential power distribution and shield grounding for analog signal chains, ensuring signal integrity in industrial environments.
Featuring dedicated terminals for shield ground connections and 24V field power, it interfaces with PCAA modules and field devices to minimize electrical noise—vital for accurate transmission of thermocouple, 4-20 mA, and LVDT signals. It connects to PCAA modules via power connectors, integrating seamlessly into simplex, dual, or TMR configurations to support gas turbine and heavy machinery control systems.
Features:
Power & Ground Management: Delivers 24V field power to sensors/actuators and provides shield grounding terminals, reducing electromagnetic interference.
System Integration: Works with PCAA modules and TCAT terminal boards, enabling reliable signal flow in redundant (TMR/dual) and simplex setups.
Noise Mitigation: Shield ground connections, often linked to mounting sheet metal, preserve signal accuracy in high-noise industrial settings.
Durable Design: Rugged construction with secure terminals ensures stability in harsh conditions, supporting continuous operation in turbine applications.
Mark VI Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates into the series’ architecture, enhancing analog signal reliability for critical monitoring and control functions.
