PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IS215WEPAH2B is a Wind Energy Pitch Axis for Mark VI / Mark VIe wind turbine control systems. This board serves within automated drive systems to control wind turbine blade pitch operations. The circuit assembly incorporates conformal coating to protect surface-mount components from environmental contamination.
The IS215WEPAH2B integrates two factory-mounted daughterboards designated as the AEPAH1B and the BPPC. Dedicated hardware resources provide specialized monitoring, motor control signaling, and digital communication capabilities across the pitch axis assembly. It includes direct termination channels for position feedback, serial communication, and drive command switching.
