About the DS3800HXRC

The DS3800HXRC is a printed circuit board (PCB) designed to be a part of the Mark IV line from General Electric. The Mark IV was created for gas and steam turbine control. This system can be used to monitor the turbines and their auxiliaries, to sequence both for start up and shut down procedures, and to keep the entire system operating within safe parameters. It can also be used for air, water and fuel emissions control.

The DS3800HXRC has been produced as a Series 6 receiver. It also acts as a motherboard to DS3800DXRC, which can be connected to this printed circuit board via a ribbon cable that connects to a port situated in the middle of the board. The DS3800DXRC is a circuit board with 18 jumper switches, one toggle switch, a red LED, 4 TP points and multiple integrated circuits.

The DS3800HXRC has the following specifications:

• Factory drilled, with clips attached to two corners

• Marked 6BA03. Marked at the top of the board for alignment.

• Populated with four connectors. This includes the ribbon connector mentioned above. It also has a 218A44553-1 connector on one edge, and two male connectors located on the opposite edge.

• Has two transistors located in the lower left quadrant of the board

• Has 48 integrated circuits.

• Has been designed with multiple jumper switches, resistor networks, and metal film resistors. Jumpers allow the user to change certain aspects of the board by changing the location of the jumper.

Technical support for the DS3800HXRC, including manuals and data sheets, came from General Electric. Installation guidelines may be found by sourcing these publications.
