GE IS200DSFCG1AEB is a D/S Feedback Board for Mark VIe systems. It processes drive/sensor feedback signals (e.g., encoder/resolver), offers isolation, diagnostics, operates at -40°C to +70°C, meets UL/CE, ensuring precise motion control in industrial automation.
The GE IS200DSFCG1AEB is a high-performance D/S (Drive/Sensor) Feedback Board engineered
exclusively for GE’s Mark VIe Distributed Control System (DCS)—a critical signal interface
component that enables real-time, high-precision transmission of feedback data between industrial
drives (e.g., motor, turbine drives) and sensors (e.g., encoders, resolvers) to Mark VIe controllers.
Designed to bridge drive-sensor communication gaps in mission-critical operations, it conditions and
validates feedback signals (e.g., speed, position, torque) to ensure accurate control loop execution,
preventing equipment misalignment or performance degradation. Built to GE’s industrial-grade
standards, it withstands harsh environments (extreme temperatures, EMI, dust) and is ideal for power
generation, oil & gas, and heavy manufacturing—where reliable drive/sensor feedback directly
impacts operational safety, efficiency, and equipment lifespan.
Core Features
1. Multi-Signal Compatibility
Supports encoder, resolver, analog torque, and digital speed feedback signals—eliminating the need for multiple dedicated boards. Reduces hardware inventory costs by 35% and simplifies system design for mixed drive/sensor setups.
2. Ultra-Low Latency Feedback
Delivers <500 ns latency for digital signals and 16-bit resolution for analog data, ensuring real-time synchronization between drives, sensors, and Mark VIe controllers. Critical for high-speed applications (e.g., turbine speed regulation, conveyor belt torque control) where delays cause operational errors.
3. Industrial-Grade Ruggedness
EMI Shielding: 2.5kV AC electrical isolation blocks interference from high-voltage drives or heavy machinery, preventing signal corruption.
Durable Construction: Conformal coating and gold-plated terminals extend service life to 10+ years in harsh environments (e.g., refinery motor rooms, power plant turbine halls).
Fault Protection: Short-circuit protection on input channels prevents board damage from sensor/drive electrical anomalies.
4. Plug-and-Play Mark VIe Integration
Auto-detected by GE Mark VIe Configuration Studio, which includes preloaded signal calibration templates for common sensors/drives. No custom coding required—cuts installation and commissioning time by 40% vs. generic feedback boards.
5. Proactive Diagnostics
Dual-Color LED Indicators: Separate lights for “signal presence” (amber) and “fault” (red) enable instant troubleshooting (e.g., identify a disconnected encoder in seconds).
Signal Validation: Built-in parity checking and open/short-circuit detection alert operators to corrupted data or sensor failures before they impact control loops.
6. Hazardous Zone Readiness
ATEX/IECEx certification allows deployment in Zone 2 (flammable gas) and Zone 22 (combustible dust) areas—ideal for oil refinery pump drives, chemical plant mixer sensors, and grain elevator conveyor feedback.
Applications
Optimized for industries requiring reliable drive/sensor feedback in Mark VIe-controlled systems:
Power Generation: Gas/steam turbine speed feedback (encoders to controllers), generator torque monitoring, boiler feedwater pump drive position control.
