Product Description
The GE IS215VCMIH2C is a VME Communications Interface (VCMI) module designed for the Mark VI Speedtronic turbine control system. It combines high-speed communication and discrete I/O signal acquisition into a compact, rugged module, making it ideal for modern industrial control environments.
This module functions as both a VME bus master controller and discrete I/O interface. Moreover, it supports dual 10/100 Mbps IONet Ethernet ports and RS-485/RS-232 serial interfaces, providing reliable communication and network redundancy. It also features 16 isolated DC input channels capable of accepting signals from dry contacts, NAMUR sensors, or open-collector gates within a 0–60 VDC range.
The IS215VCMIH2C uses hardware filtering (1 ms) and 1 kHz scan rates to deliver accurate, timely signal processing. In addition, it is designed for harsh environments, offering hot-swap capability for quick replacement without system downtime. This module is widely deployed in power plants, LNG facilities, petrochemical sites, and marine platforms.
