Description
Product Overview
The GE IS215UCCCS05A is a Safety Controller Board designed for GE’s Mark VIES Speedtronic Turbine Control System, specifically engineered to manage critical safety functions in industrial applications. As part of the Mark VIES functional safety ecosystem, this module provides SIL 2/SIL 3 compliance for safety-instrumented systems (SIS) in high-risk environments like oil & gas, power generation, and chemical processing .
Key features include redundant control architecture, real-time data processing, and compatibility with GE’s ToolboxST software for configuration. The board supports simplex, dual, or triple modular redundant (TMR) configurations, ensuring fail-safe operation in extreme conditions. Its rugged design with conformal coating protects against moisture, dust, and electromagnetic interference (EMI), making it suitable for offshore platforms and harsh industrial settings .
