The IC200ALG630 is a component module of the VersaMax I/O platform that is formerly manufactured by GE Intelligent Platforms (GE IP), now produced by Emerson Automation. This module is specifically used for Temperature measuring requirements or in the integration of non-standard millivolt signals provided by transducers. This module has Seven (7) analog input channels that support direct wiring of a number of Thermocouple sensor types such as J, K, T, S, and R as well as a variety of millivolt signals including +/-19.5mV, +/-39mV, +/-78.125mV, +/-156.25mV, +/-312.5mV, and +/-625mV.
The IC200ALG630 comes with signal conversion resolution of 16 bits, provided by the individual Analog to Digital converter (ADC) present at each input channel. In addition, each input channel has scan time of 60 milliseconds per point at 60 Hz and 70 milliseconds per point at 50 Hz; Accuracy of +/- 0.2 % on voltage measurement and +/- 0.15% on Temperature measurement and conformity error of +/–0.3 degree Celsius, or +/–0.5 degree Fahrenheit. Furthermore, each input point of the IC200ALG630 is capable of implementing diagnostics which includes Open Thermocouple, over/under range, and high/low alarm, and thermistor error. |
The IC200ALG630 has backplane current consumption of 125 mA on both 5 VDC and 3.3 VDC output of the backplane. It also has optical isolation and frame to ground isolation rating of 250 VAC for continuous and 1500 VAC for 1 minute voltage duration. LED status indicator is also provided with this module specifically an OK LED which indicates active backplane power when lit Green and Amber when module is faulted.
