GE IS220YAICS1AL Safety Analog I/O Pack
Mark VIeS SIL3-Certified Analog I/O | 16-bit Precision | Redundant IONet | “L” Factory-Calibrated | Turbine Safety Control
1. Core Product Overview
The GE IS220YAICS1AL is a **SIL3-certified safety analog I/O pack** in the Mark VIeS series, engineered for critical safety instrumented systems (SIS) in gas/steam turbines, combined cycle power plants, and oil & gas/petrochemical hazardous areas. The “L” suffix denotes a **factory-calibrated variant** with enhanced 16-bit precision, preloaded safety logic, and optimized IONet parameters for seamless integration with Mark VIeS controllers (IS220UCSAH1AK/IS420UCSCH1A). It integrates 8 analog input channels (4-20mA/0-10V/RTD/thermocouple) and 4 analog output channels (4-20mA/0-10V), supporting high-precision measurement of temperature, pressure, flow, and vibration signals for safety loops (overspeed protection, flameout detection, emergency shutdown). Designed for Mark VIeS backplane compatibility, redundant 24V DC power (10W), and -20°C~+60°C industrial operation, it meets **Class I, Div 2/ATEX Zone 2** hazardous area ratings, with IP20 protection and conformal coating for harsh environments. The module’s safety-certified hardware/software design ensures fault isolation, deterministic signal processing, and SIL3 compliance for safety integrity level 3 applications.

2. I/O Channels & Signal Processing
The IS220YAICS1AL’s 8 analog input channels support **4-20mA (2-wire/3-wire)**, **0-10V voltage**, **RTD (PT100/PT1000)**, and **thermocouple (J/K/T/E/R/S/B)**, with 16-bit resolution (±0.05% accuracy) for high-precision measurement of safety-critical parameters (turbine speed, exhaust temperature, fuel pressure). The 4 analog output channels (4-20mA/0-10V) provide deterministic control signals for safety valves, actuators, and emergency shutdown devices, with<10ms response time and fault-safe output (0mA/0V) in case of module failure. The “L” variant’s factory calibration includes channel-specific offset/ gain tuning, RTD/thermocouple linearization, and output signal trimming, reducing on-site setup time and ensuring consistency across safety loops. The module’s signal processing includes ECC memory error correction, overrange/underrange detection, and open-circuit/short-circuit diagnostics, with front-panel LEDs indicating channel status, power, and fault conditions.
• Analog Inputs (8): 4-20mA/0-10V/RTD/TC; 16-bit resolution; ±0.05% accuracy; 2/3-wire sensor connection; overrange/underrange detection
• Analog Outputs (4): 4-20mA/0-10V; 16-bit resolution; ±0.1% accuracy;<10ms response; fault-safe output (0mA/0V); overcurrent protection
• Signal Processing: ECC memory error correction; RTD/TC linearization; channel isolation; deterministic sampling (100Hz); open-circuit/short-circuit diagnostics
• “L” Variant Calibration: Factory channel tuning; offset/gain calibration; signal trimming; RTD/TC sensor matching; safety loop pre-configuration

3. Communication & Mark VIeS Ecosystem
The IS220YAICS1AL is a Mark VIeS backplane-compatible I/O pack, integrating dual redundant Ethernet ports for **IONet real-time data** and **Modbus TCP/PROFINET RT** communication with ESWB/ESWA industrial switches. It supports Mark VIeS safety communication protocols, enabling seamless data exchange with safety controllers and I/O packs (PUAA/PAICH/PSCA), while front-panel LEDs provide real-time status of power, communication, and fault conditions. The module works with Mark VIeS terminal boards (IS200STAIS1A/IS400STAIS1A/IS200TBAIS1C) for field wiring, with the “L” variant factory configuration including pre-tuned IONet parameters and Modbus register mapping for safety loops. It is fully compatible with ToolboxST/ControlST software for safety configuration, SIL3 loop validation, and remote diagnostics—reducing on-site setup time and ensuring compliance with IEC 61508/IEC 61511 standards.
