GE IS420PPNGH1A PROFINET Controller Gateway Module

Product Details:

The GE IS420PPNGH1A is a PROFINET Controller Gateway Module part of the Mark VIe Series, designed for GE’s Distributed Control Systems, particularly Speedtronic turbine controls. As a dual-function device, it acts as a PROFINET controller and a gateway, enabling high-speed data exchange between systems.

Manufactured in the U.S. and readily available, it features a 1066 MHz Intel EP80579 processor, runs on QNX Neutrino OS, and has 256 DDR2 SDRAM. Measuring 13.0 x 4.0 inches and weighing 2.4 lbs, it uses air cooling and requires vertical panel mounting with unobstructed airflow. It operates on 24 VDC within 22–149°F, supporting up to 6 KB/ms PROFINET data rates, and requires ControlST V05.04+ for configuration.

Key Features:
PROFINET Integration: Functions as both controller and gateway, enabling seamless data exchange in industrial networks.

Powerful Hardware: Equipped with a 1066 MHz Intel EP80579 processor, 256 DDR2 SDRAM, and QNX Neutrino OS for reliable, high-speed processing of up to 6 KB/ms PROFINET data.

Industrial Design: Air-cooled, compact, and lightweight with vertical panel mounting. Operates in 22–149°F on 24 VDC, suited for turbine control environments.

Network Requirements: Uses ESWA or ESWB unmanaged switches; IONet and PROFINET need separate switches. Supports 3–18 feet cabling for flexible installation.
