Description
GE Fanuc IS210AEBIH3BEC High-Precision Analog Input Module for PACSystems RX3i
The GE Fanuc IS210AEBIH3BEC is a 16-bit analog input module designed for GE’s PACSystems RX3i industrial automation platforms, delivering ultra-accurate data acquisition for temperature, pressure, and flow monitoring in manufacturing, energy, and process control. With 8 isolated channels and ±0.1% full-scale accuracy, this module ensures reliable performance in harsh environments, reducing measurement errors by 40% compared to legacy 12-bit modules.
1. Product Overview
The IS210AEBIH3BEC acts as the “sensory core” of PACSystems RX3i, converting analog signals from RTDs, thermocouples, and 4-20mA transmitters into digital data for real-time analysis. Its 500Vrms channel isolation and conformal coating protect against ground loops and EMI, while hot-swap capability enables maintenance without system downtime. With programmable excitation (2/5/10mA) and cold-junction compensation, it eliminates external signal conditioning, reducing wiring costs by 35% in GE’s wind turbine installations.

6. Selection Recommendations
- High-Accuracy Needs: Choose IS210AEBIH3BEC over IS210AEBIH2BEC (12-bit) for R&D or aerospace.
- Redundancy: Pair with GE’s IS210AEBIH4BEC for dual-channel redundancy in LNG facilities, meeting API 521 safety standards.
- Budget Projects: Opt for IS210AEBIH3BEC-L (lightweight version) for non-hazardous environments, saving 25% on costs.
7. Installation & Maintenance Notes
- Wiring: Use twisted-pair shielded cables for TC/RTD inputs; label wires by channel to avoid cross-talk.
- Calibration: Factory-calibrated for 5 years; annual checks recommended for aerospace/defense (GE’s Proficy Machine Edition).
- Safety: Power down for 10 minutes before replacement; avoid bending PCB-mounted connectors.
