About the IC3600SVDC1C
General Electric (GE) created the IC3600SVDC1C printed circuit board (PCB) to be a component in their Speedtronic Mark I-II series. The IC3600SVDC1C is what is known as a Vibration Detection Board. The MKI (Mark I) and MKII (Mark II) are the earliest systems released for GE’s Mark line. These series were designed to meet all of the needs gas turbine automation and management. Mark systems have been used for decades in turbines all around the world.
The IC3600SVDC1C is a printed circuit board which has a metal plate connected to its left edge. This plate reaches across the length of the IC3600SVDC1C. A collection of components is positioned along this metal plate. One (1) light-emitting diode or LED is positioned near the top of the plate. This LED has been attached to the PCB by a series of white wires. Five (5) buttons which come in red and black are sitting below the LED and all have different functions. White wires also connects these buttons to the surface of the printed circuit board. One (1) blue potentiometer is positioned right next to the plate. Potentiometers can also be called variable resistors. They each have adjustable knobs which an operator can use to change the device’s resistance as necessary. A line of metal prongs has been placed along the other end of the IC3600SVDC1C. These prongs are meant to connect the IC3600SVDC1C with the other parts in the turbine system. A number of light blue resistors take up much of the space on the IC3600SVDC1C. Each resistor has a series of colored bands. These bands represent each device’s respective resistance.
