About the IS200EBRGH2A

Bridge and Protection module IS200EBRGH2A is a Bridge Interface that is used for controlling related bridge I/O terminal boards as well as controlling the power bridge (SCR). This board is part of the second group of the EBRG boards, this second group is used with thyristors that are seventy-seven millimeters or smaller. One feature of this board is that it can be used with most SCR devices within the EX2100e series, as such, it allows for uses with several bridge architectures and SCR ratings which includes paralleling bridge converters, simplex, and WBU.

There are LED indicators on the IS200EBRGH2A board that will provide the status for the following:

• Alarm Conditions

• Bridge Temperature

• Currents into the Bridge

• Cooling Fan Rotation

• Fault Conditions

• Gate Power Supply

• Line Filter

• Output Firing

There are features of the EBRG board that are used for interfacing current condition feedback and controlling the bridge; the bridge controls will pass through this board. Please note that there is a C controller within this series that will not interface with the IS200EBRGH2A board for bridge firing. 

The main mounting location for this board is the Power Conversion Cabinet, when in the power conversion cabinet. This model will also be used with a PCM, DC circuit contactors, and a circuit disconnect or breaker.
