General Electric (GE) recently introduced a new I/O expansion module, the IS210BPPCH1AC, that further enhances the performance of its Mark VIe control platform. Designed specifically for Mark VIe Speedtronic systems, this I/O pack processor card offers updated components and enhanced features with higher data processing power and communication performance compared to the older BPPB I/O pack.

Designed to work with TMR (Triple modular redundancy) or dual terminal boards, the IS210BPPCH1AC module can be mixed with older BPPB components and usually supports automatic reconfiguration when components are replaced. In addition, the module supports branding, that is, the process of labeling a specific code set in a ToolboxST application to meet a specific purpose, which is essential for the configuration of the Safety Instrument Function (SIF) and must be certified for functional safety according to IEC 61511 standards.

The module uses a double-sided circuit board design and integrates multiple integrated circuits, transistors, resistors, capacitors, inductors and diodes. The board also includes a fuse, multiple jumpers, and test points. Each component is labeled with a reference designer to make it easier to identify.

The IS210BPPCH1AC module is used in a wide range of industrial automation fields, including chemical, petroleum, building materials, aerospace and electrical. It plays an important role in power systems, especially in the control systems of gas turbines and steam turbines.

This new GE product not only enriches the Mark VIe product line, but also provides customers around the world with more efficient and reliable industrial automation solutions, further strengthening GE’s leadership position in industrial control systems
