About the DS3800NFCF1J1E

The DS3800NFCF1J1E is a turbine control firing board developed by GE. It fits into the Mark IV series, designed for gas and steam turbine control. The Mark IV, which can also be used for air, fuel and water emissions control, helps maintain safe operating conditions and allows the user to automate some of the turbine system routines, such as shutdown and cool down.

The DS3800NFCF1J1E has the following specs:

• It is alignment marked (A-L) and factory drilled.

• It has two push-button switches. These are labeled "step" and "reset."

• It has two sets of LEDs. One set, located in the upper left, is composed of seven red LEDs. The other, in the lower left, is composed of seven red LEDs and one amber LED.

• It has two jumper switches.

• It has transistors grouped on each edge. There are twenty-one transistors.

• Test points tend to run parallel to the edges of the board. There are twenty-nine test points.

• It is built with various diodes, resistors, and capacitors, including 8542 +/- 0022 M/e 200V electrolytic capacitors. Resistors tend to be metal film resistors.

• It has 42 integrated circuits, including crystal oscillators, 8-bit static MOS RAM chips, negative edge triggered flip-flops, and 4-bit up/down counters.

• It is designed to accept a daughter board. The auxiliary DS3800DFCF fits on four nylon pins located center of the left short edge. If the auxiliary board is installed, this gives the DS3800NFCF1J1E access to that board's components, including ammeters.

Installation guidelines for the DS3800NFCF1J1E may be found within technical support publications from GE, such as manuals and datasheets.
