About the DS3800HMPG1G1D
This DS3800HMPG1G1D product offering from General Electric was originally designed and manufactured specifically with the heralded automated industrial machine producer's Mark IV Turbine Control System Series in mind, specifically. The Mark IV Turbine Control System Series, as indicated initially through use of its full extended series name here, has a set of specific applications in the management and control systems of General Electric-compatible gas and steam turbine automated drive assemblies, which is understandably something of a downgrade upon the soon-to-come Mark VI Turbine Control System Series that was expanded to included further wind energy-based applications. This DS3800HMPG1G1D printed circuit board product offering's greater Mark iV Turbine Control System Series is still very much considered a desirable GE Mark product series, as it is one of the very last GE Mark product series to incorporate the brand's patented style of Speedtronic control system technology into a range of its different offerings.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
This DS3800HMPG1G1D product offering is not unlike any other printed circuit board device made available to our extended new and reconditioned inventory here at AX, in that its specific intended Mark IV Series functionality is introduced by its normal Mark IV Series assembly's acceptance of a specially-designed set of hardware components and component specifications. The GE CPU Board DS3800HMPG1G1D is designed for quick installation in the drive. The board features a modular connector on 1 end and retention levers on the other end. The GE CPU Board DS3800HMPG1G1D also is populated with 2 red indicator LEDs and 1 amber LED which are visible from the front of the board. The board also is populated with a microprocessor, erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) modules, and a 34-pin connector. Given the fact that this DS3800HMPG1G1D printed circuit board or PCB for short belongs to a now-obsolete legacy GE product series, it is not accompanied online by any great level of originally-pertinent instructional manual materials. With this being the case, the DS3800HMPG1G1D functional product number itself stands to serve as a viable alternative source of DS3800HMPG1G1D Board hardware component and component specification information, as it codes for these details through a GE-formulated selection of consecutive functional naming elements. To start, the DS3800HMPG1G1D functional product number begins with the dual-functioning DS3800 series tag delegating this DS3800HMPG1G1D PCB's normal Mark IV Series product assembly version as well as its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other relevant hardware details indicated in this manner include this DS3800HMPG1G1D Board's:
- HMPG functional product acronym
- Group one Mark IV Series product grouping
- Normal PCB coating style
Before you begin any maintenance or service on the drive, including replacing the GE CPU Board DS3800HMPG1G1D, there are some preliminary considerations to keep in mind. The drive is a high-voltage device that can cause serious injury if the servicer is shocked by the electric current. You must also understand the danger caused by the powerful motor and moving parts. They can also cause injury. Visually inspect the area and note any moisture or water on the floor. Because water is a conductor, it is a hazard to have water on the floor while working with high-voltage current. Use towels or another method to dry the floor completely. If the floor is moist from condensation, consider installing a dehumidifier or other device to dry the air. If any devices are attached to 2-wire extension cords, remove the extension cords from the area around drive. They are a shock hazard and are not safe to have in the area. Locate and inspect all the emergency shutdown devices associated with the drive. Make sure they are functional and are easy to find in an emergency.
