About the DS3800HPBC1D1C
The GE Parallel Line Buffer Board DS3800HPBC1D1C 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 Parallel Line Buffer Board DS3800HPBC1D1C also is populated with 1 red indicator LED and 2 amber LEDs which are visible from the front of the board. The board also is populated with 3 jumpers, and multiple capacitors.
Another component on the board is a transistor to transistor logic (TTL) device. It serves as the interface logic between integrated circuits. While The GE Parallel Line Buffer Board DS3800HPBC1D1C is designed for quick installation and removal from the drive, it is important to remember that all power must be removed from the drive before the board can be removed. The board has multiple power sources attached to it for the power requirements.
When the installation of the drive is planned, careful consideration must be given to the need for all power to be routed near the installation. For example, if ac power must be available, route the ac power lines to be near drive. For the dc power requirements, inverters are used to convert ac power to dc power. The inverters must be powered and near the install also.
Also consider that shut off devices must be installed for all electrical power supplies. In an emergency, the servicer can pull the shut off device to immediately cut off power to the drive. They must be installed in an easily accessible location and also be in good working order.
