Product Description
A printed circuit board existing as a member of General Electrics’ Mark VI Speedtronic series of printed component parts, the IS200AEPAH1BKE printed circuit board is usually referred to in industry circles by its distinctive functional acronym; AEPA. This particular model of AEPA circuit board is considered a revised or updated version, as it carries a functional revision 1 value of B, a functional revision 2 value of K, and an artwork revision value of E. Before deciding to make a purchase of this IS200 model, please consider each revision version carefully, as they may impact compatibility or installation specifications greatly.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The IS200AEPAH1BKE model is a printed circuit board. When the AEPA board was being built it was built with an optional auxiliary board. The optional auxiliary board will be inserted with screws into standoffs on the AEPA. If the auxiliary board is connected to the main module with the two connectors in the upper left-hand corner. The two connectors are male connectors. There is a multitude of integrated circuits which include but are not limited to a three-pin female connector, and two female phone plugs.
The AEPA module can be used with triple modular or simplex redundancy types. If used with triple modular redundancy type architecture, the IS200AEPAH1BKE PCB necessitates the use of three separate and independent control modules, IONets, and power supplies. The TMR architecture also allows for the riding through of a single-point failure within the electronics and can repair the module or defective card while the process is running.
Components
Some of the components specific to the IS200AEPAH1BKE model of PCB include:
- twelve relays
- various metal oxide varistors, with one main metal oxide varistor in the upper corner of the board
- a total of nineteen white female vertical pin connectors ranging from two pin to eighteen pin connectors. These connectors can be found along the edges of the AEPA board.
- a conformal-style protective PCB coating
The IS200AEPAH1BKE board is no different from any other Mark VI Speedtronic component part, in that it is compatible with a specific set of input and output applications. Some of these applications are synchronizing, trip system, shaft voltage, and current monitoring applications, although applications are only a select few of which can be run with the AEPA board. For more information on the I/O applications relevant to owners of a IS200AEPAH1BKE printed circuit board, please refer to the GER-4193A GE Power Systems manual.
