Product Description
The IS210AEBIH3B printed circuit board is definable as a printed circuit board that was originally manufactured by General Electric alternative energy shell company GE Energy; specifically for their Mark VIe series of Wind Turbine Control Systems and control system component products. Beyond this very basic series placement, the specialized nature of GE Energy’s Mark VIe Wind Turbine Control Series seems to have limited the availability of original, factory-issued instructional manual material concerning the IS210AEBIH3B PCB specifically. As if this wasn’t enough, this IS210AEBIH3B part has generally limited market availability, and so any information present on this IS210AEBIH3B product page has been sourced from a breakdown of the customized IS210AEBIH3B product number, paired with any scraps of information included in less product-specific instructional manuals.
An inspection of the IS210AEBIH3B product number should be supplemented some by a discovery of the IS210AEBIH3B’s functional description, which is available hidden away in a related manual as an Alternative Energy Bridge Interface. While this exists as the sole piece of information detailing the IS210AEBIH3B printed circuit board available online, it should be helpful in its contextualization of the information revealed in a IS210AEBIH3B Part Number Breakdown. In conducting this breakdown, the IS210 series tag present at the very beginning of the IS210AEBIH3B product number relays to the knowledgable Mark VIe Series drive administrator two important piece of information; the PCB’s assembly type and manufacturer location. As with any IS210 or IS200-marked printed circuit board, this AE Bridge Interface was manufactured domestically; in General Electric’s Salem, Virginia factory location, to be exact. The IS210AEBIH3B Alternative Energy Bridge Interface is revealed to possess a special assembly version, as indicated by the presence of the “210” number, which alters the standard IS200 series tag indicating a normal assembly version for the PCB. While the exact reason for this product’s designation as a special assembly is unknown, it is likely that this model may feature a SCOM grounding output terminal that reconfigures its basic assembly; as seen in many similar Mark VIe Wind Turbine Control Series products.
Moving from the IS210AEBIH3B part number’s initial IS210 series tag, one will experience an instance of the AEBI functional acronym, which is included for basic identification purposes. This functional acronym was developed for functional industry-circle conversational use in place of the long and wordy full IS210AEBIH3B product number, and is itself followed by another chunk of product-specific information in the “H3” series grouping tage, which, similar to the IS210 series tag, offers dual naming functionality for the IS210AEBIH3B product. This H3 series tag identifies the IS210AEBIH3B Alternative Energy Bridge Interface as a confromally-coated printed circuit board with group three Mark VIe Wind Turbine Control Series grouping. Although the true meaning of a Mark VIe Wind Series group three series grouping is not available due to a lack of instructional information, the conformal coating style specific to this product is standard to many General Electric printed circuit boards. Conformal PCB coating is a layer of chemically-applied protective insulatory coating that should cover every surface on every hardware component affixed to its designated printed circuit board. While conformal PCB coating is much thinner than the alternative normal PCB coating, it is much more effective in its coating style and succeeds in covering every hardware component beyond a base level of protection.
