About the IC3600ADAD1A
The IC3600ADAD1A is a FANUC GE printed circuit board manufactured to function as a D/A Diode Converter Card for the Mark I or Mark II series. These series, which were the first two in GE’s Speedtronic gas/steam turbine management series, are able to manage heavy duty GE turbine systems as small as a single 4000 hp unit to a multi-turbine system with 400 Mw combined cycles. The MKI/MKII systems are designed using microprocessors and integrated circuits to carry out sequencing, control, and protective functions. Some processes have redundancies (single or double) built in to ensure safe machine operation and reliability of service.
The IC3600ADAD1A has two drilled-out corners. The board is marked with several bits of information, including its individual board id number, its revision code, and markings to identify all components on the board. One edge of the board has been numbered from one to fifty by fives. The numbers correspond to twenty-five right-angled metal pins attached to the surface of the board.
The IC3600ADAD1A is designed with fixed through-hole components, which are sometimes mounted vertically. Capacitors on the board include two 50V (77F921C) aluminum electrolytic capacitors and one 200 VDC 10 +/- polyester vinyl capacitor. The board has several kinds of resistors, including carbon composite. In one corner of the board, there are three trim potentiometers in a line. These may be used for voltage division.
The IC3600ADAD1A will be protected by a static-reducing covering or sleeve before it leaves our warehouse. If manuals and datasheets have been retained, it is recommended technicians review these before installation begins. GE provided all technical support for the IC3600ADAD1A.
