IS400TDBTH6A | Turbine Control I/O Module

Key Features and Advantages

High-Density I/O: The IS400TDBTH6A combines 16 digital inputs and 16 digital outputs in a single-slot module, maximizing I/O density in space-constrained turbine control cabinets.

Mission-Critical Reliability: Designed for continuous operation in harsh environments, this module features industrial-grade components with MTBF exceeding 200,000 hours, ensuring uninterrupted turbine operation.

Advanced Diagnostics: Integrated self-monitoring continuously checks module health, detecting channel faults, power supply issues, and communication errors before they impact turbine operations.

Fast Response: With sub-millisecond response times, the IS400TDBTH6A ensures precise control of turbine safety systems including fuel shutoff valves and ignition sequences.

Seamless Integration: Native compatibility with GE’s Mark VIe control system enables plug-and-play configuration through ToolboxST software, reducing commissioning time by up to 40%.
