GE IS200VTCCH1C IS200VTCCH1CBD Thermocouple Input

The GE IS200VTCCH1C IS200VTCCH1CBD Thermocouple Input Board Mark VI IS200 converts temperature signals from thermocouple sensors. You will find this board critical for accurate turbine temperature monitoring. Its high-precision design supports multiple thermocouple types simultaneously.

Dimensions, Weight, and Physical Layout

This thermocouple input board measures 16.2 cm in length and 11.8 cm in width. Its height stays at 2.2 cm including all isolation barriers. The total weight reaches 0.48 kilograms for standard rack mounting. A six-layer PCB minimizes thermal drift across adjacent input channels.

Input Interfaces and Component Count

The GE IS200VTCCH1C IS200VTCCH1CBD Thermocouple Input Board Mark VI IS200 offers sixteen differential thermocouple input channels. Each channel supports type J, K, T, and E thermocouples. You also receive four dedicated cold-junction compensation sensors on board. In total, this board contains 203 individual electronic components. These include 16 analog front-ends, 4 compensation ICs, and 124 precision resistors.

Energy Storage and Power Parameters

A 3.3V supercapacitor provides onboard energy storage for 36 hours. This backup retains calibration coefficients during power interruptions. The board draws only 5.2 watts from a nominal 24V DC supply. Peak inrush current stays safely below 2.4 amperes.

Resolution, Accuracy, and Environmental Limits

You get 24-bit analog-to-digital conversion for each thermocouple input. The board achieves ±0.5°C accuracy across the full temperature range. A 100 MHz dedicated processor handles linearization and cold-junction compensation. Therefore, the operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +70°C. Storage temperatures extend from -55°C to +85°C without performance loss.

Connectors, Isolation, and Additional Features

Two 40-pin ribbon cable headers connect to external terminal blocks. A single 10-pin configuration port allows calibration adjustments. For similar static trip system temperature monitoring, see the RMS-TSG-TZ-C model from the same manufacturer. However, this thermocouple board specializes in high-accuracy temperature sensing exclusively. Mean time between failures (MTBF) exceeds 180,000 hours in continuous operation.
