What is the Parker Sporlan IB-G 953580?

The IB-G, item 953580, is the Parker Sporlan Global Interface Board — a valve interface board that turns a 4-20 mA or 0-10 V control signal into the step sequence for a Sporlan electronic expansion valve, powered from the 24 V terminals. The record covers 3 complete kits, new in original packaging: each box holds the board, a snap-in DIN-rail carrier, and the quick reference guide. Firmware FW-P0160D, board revision 3.0, dated July 2022. 7 photos and 1 video below show the exact units covered by this record.

What the terminals and switches do

The twelve-way pluggable terminal carries everything on one row: the analog input pair (S+ and S-), the contact-closure commands OPN and CLS that drive the valve fully open or closed, a reference terminal, and the valve coil leads B, W, G, K and R before the 24 V supply pair. The 4-20 mA / 0-10 V selection is a physical jumper block next to the VALVE connector, with input scaling points marked at 300, 600, 1000 and 1200 ohms. SW1 sets the valve itself: the first three switches select the step count — 6386, 3193, 2500 or 1596 steps to match the valve model — and the remaining switches flip between bipolar and unipolar drive, reverse travel direction, quick response at 200 pps, and whether an idle board parks the valve closed.

What ships in each box

Each white Sporlan Valve Division box contains three pieces: the board in a static-shielded bag, a grey snap-in plastic track carrier that mounts the bare PCB onto standard DIN rail (the bare board has only 4 mm corner holes), and the SD-402 quick reference guide that maps the terminal row and the SW1 tables. The label repeats item 953580, part 2200963 and firmware FW-P0160D, so a stocked box can be verified without opening it. All three units in this record are the same rev 3.0 build dated July 2022.
