About the IC3600TPSE1
The IC3600TPSE1 is a 9V Converter card manufactured as a component for the first two Speedtronic systems released by General Electric. These systems, which came to be known as the Mark I and Mark II, were created to make the GE heavy-duty turbines more efficient and were made to be easily adaptable and scalable. The MKI and MKII are now considered obsolete by GE and are no longer supported by the manufacturer, but the systems remain in use in many places around the world in the management of turbine systems as simple as single turbine 4000 hp units and as complex as full power systems (to 400 Mw.)
The IC3600TPSE1 is a GE FANUC component. The largest component on the board is a round transformer. This connects via colored wires to the board and to several other components. The next largest component on the board is a circular coil inductor. This is protected by a gray housing. The board has five transistors located on its surface, including two Motorola 2N3738 7414 bipolar transistors. It uses five capacitors, including two ceramic capacitors and three aluminum electrolytic through-hole capacitors. These are marked 76F92NN200 20 μf 150 VDC and 77F92KL500 50 μf 25 VDC. The board is populated with several ceramic diodes, as well as multiple CCR or carbon composite resistors. These components are mounted to the board in a vertical fashion.
The IC3600TPSE1 is connected to a silver front panel. This panel is narrow and contains no components or openings. The panel fits over both the top and bottom edge of the circuit board and has cutaways on both ends to allow spacing to keep clear of the drill mounts in both corners of the PCB.
