About the IC3600PSZA1
The IC3600PSZA1 is what is called a periphery card. A periphery card is a type of printed circuit board (PCB) which is used for inputting and outputting information. The IC3600PSZA1 is a component in the Speedtronic Mark I-II series which is used for turbine control. The IC3600PSZA1 was made by GE (General Electric). The Mark I system was first introduced by General Electric in 1968 and is the first in the Mark series of turbine controls. The Mark turbine systems are used to control and automate the operations of gas and steam turbines. These systems maintain proper temperatures, control fuels, and automate important processes like startup, shutdown, and cooldown. The Mark systems are also responsible for ensuring the safety of both turbine equipment and the people who operate that equipment.
Many different circuit board parts are featured on the IC3600PSZA1. One (1) rectangular black relay or contactor is positioned in the center of the IC3600PSZA1. The board also features ten (10) small metal cube-shaped transistors. One large yellow capacitor can be found near the bottom left side of the IC3600PSZA1. Near the upper left corner, there are two blue potentiometers. These potentiometers can also be called variable resistors because they contain dials which allow an operator to adjust the resistance of the device. Two (2) blue capacitors can also be found underneath the potentiometers. Several resistors and diodes may also be found on the IC3600PSZA1.
