Description
GE IS220PTURH1B Turbine‑Specific Primary Trip I/O Pack
Product Overview
IS220PTURH1B is a turbine‑specific primary trip I/O pack for GE Speedtronic Mark VIe / Mark VIeS turbine control systems. Equipped with an on‑board BPPC processor, it handles high‑speed turbine‑critical signals including magnetic‑pickup speed inputs, emergency trip loops, flame detection, generator auto‑synchronization and breaker control. It interfaces with field terminal boards such as TTURH1C, TRPAH1A and STURHxA, and communicates with the main UCSB controller over redundant IONet Ethernet. This unit supports both simplex and TMR triple‑modular‑redundant configurations for safety‑critical turbine protection. ControlST V04.07 or higher software version is required for operation. Original OEM manufacturing is discontinued; it is supplied as spare‑parts for existing power‑generation turbine assets.

IS220PTURH1B
Typical Applications
- Gas‑turbine & steam‑turbine primary safety control: Collect shaft‑speed signals, execute overspeed detection and primary trip logic
- Generator synchronization: Auto‑synchronization and main‑breaker closing control for turbo‑generator units
- Flame detection & combustion monitoring: Interfaces with flame‑sensor circuits for gas‑turbine flame‑loss protection
- Combined‑cycle power plant: Critical I/O processing for combined‑cycle unit control and safety interlock loops
- Mark VIeS SIS safety‑instrumented system: Deployed in TMR architecture to satisfy SIL‑rated turbine‑protection requirements
- Oil‑gas turbo‑machinery: Turbine‑driven compressor safety and control for refinery and pipeline sites
- Brown‑field maintenance & retrofit: Spare‑part replacement and system expansion for installed Mark VIe cabinets

Key Features & Benefits
- Local high‑speed signal processing: On‑board BPPC processor processes speed, trip and flame‑monitoring signals locally, lowers control‑loop latency for fast turbine‑trip response.
- Four‑channel MPU speed acquisition: Supports multi‑sensor shaft‑speed measurement, suitable for redundant overspeed‑protection design.
- Multi‑function turbine‑oriented I/O: Integrates speed measurement, emergency trip handling, flame detection and generator auto‑synchronization functions in one single pack, reduces cabinet component count.
- Redundant dual‑IONet Ethernet: Dual independent Ethernet links enhance communication reliability between I/O pack and UCSB main controller.
- High‑voltage galvanic isolation: 2500 V isolation between field side and control backplane, improves anti‑interference performance in harsh turbine‑hall environments.
- Simplex / TMR flexible deployment: Supports single‑module or triple‑modular‑redundant setup to meet different safety‑level project requirements.
- Plug‑on pack‑style mechanical design: Directly mounts onto dedicated terminal boards, simple installation and quick field replacement during overhaul.
- Comprehensive front‑panel diagnostics: LED status indicators and IR service port facilitate on‑site commissioning and fault troubleshooting.
