The IS420UCSBH1A is a high‑performance controller module in the Mark VIe/VIeS control system family. This “UCSB” (Universal Control System Block) module is designed to serve as a core processing unit for industrial automation in mission‑critical environments—such as power generation turbines (steam, gas), large compressors, marine propulsion, and process control systems. It executes control logic, interfaces with I/O modules via the IONet/ethernet network, supports redundancy, and is optimized for reliability and longevity.
