About the DS3800NHVE1B1A

The DS3800NHVE1B1A is a PCB in the Mark IV line from GE. This printed circuit board functions as a high volt board for the Mark IV. This system was created for gas or steam turbine control and has a variety of features that allow for more efficient management, such as the ability to automate basic procedures (startup/shutdown,) and to monitor water, air or fuel emissions.

The DS3800NHVE1B1A has alignment markings on two edges (letters and numbers,) and is also marked with '6DA01' and '6BA01.' It is factory-drilled dead-center of the board and in all corners (twice.)

Much of the space on the DS3800NHVE1B1A is taken up by six Bicron 218A4886 P1 K0 transformers. These are placed in two rows of three. Sitting outside these rows on the upper and lower edges of the board are two sets of headers. Both sets are 8-position 3-pin. The upper set is labeled P1 through P3, and the lower N1 through N3. Five more headers are placed on the right edge. These are 2-pin four-position, and are labeled 01 through 03, P, and N.

The DS3800NHVE1B1A also contains two vertical pin (male) communication connectors. It has six light emitting diodes (LEDs,) six contact points, and five jumpers. Jumpers can be set to H or to B.

The DS3800NHVE1B1A contains resistors and capacitors of differing values. Resistors are both carbon composite and ceramic-covered metal film.

General Electric was responsible for all technical support for the DS3800NHVE1B1A, including publications like manuals, which provide the end user with information on part specs, installation guidelines, and maintenance.
