About the DS3800NMEC1K1J
This DS3800NMEC1K1J printed circuit board or PCB for short from the trusted automated industrial powerhouse manufacturer General Electric was specifically designed and manufactured with a functional placement in the greater Mark IV Turbine Control System Series in mind. As many have been able to predict solely based off of its full extended series name, the Mark IV Series that this DS3800NMEC1K1J product belongs to has a set of specific functional applications in the management or control systems of General Electric-accepting gas and steam turbine automated drive assemblies. This DS3800NMEC1K1J product's Mark IV Series' intended functional range had not yet been expanded to include the possible alternative energy-based wind turbine applications of later-developed Mark product series such as the Mark VI Turbine Control System Series. With this being the case, it is still viewed as quite the generally-desirable GE Mark product series, given the fact that it is still one of GE's final-developed Mark Series to take advantage of the patented Speedtronic control system technology first seen with the release of the Mark I Series in the mid to later 1960s.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS3800NMEC1K1J is a motor exciter control board for the Mark IV (Speedtronic) series from GE. The DS3800NMEC1K1J and other circuit boards in the Speedtronic line are used to run and control gas and steam turbines. A turbine uses an internal combustion engine to mix fuel and air to create a controlled explosion. This explosion creates a series of gases that are under pressure and force their way out causing the turbine to spin. The energy created by the spinning turbine is then harnessed and used for an assortment of other purposes. The DS3800NMEC1K1J has a variable resistor or Potentiometer. The variable resistor can be identified by the black knob with a white arrow in the center. This knob allows the worker to adjust the variable resistor from zero to one-hundred, with ten-degree increments. This DS3800NMEC1K1J printed circuit board or PCB for short is actually not the originally-developed product of its specific Mark VI Series functionality, as proven through the presence of various trailing, revision-indicating digits on the DS3800NMEC1K1J functional product number. Not the originally-developed Motor Exciter Control Board.
The DS3800NMEC1K1J has diodes (allow energy to follow in only one direction) and capacitors (hold energy in an electric field). The DS3800NMEC1K1J has six masculine connection points to connect with the circuit boards surrounding it. The DS3800NMEC1K1J has thirty-five integrated circuits which hold all the programming information for the DS3800NMEC1K1J. The integrated circuits are split into EEPROM and EPROMs. The only difference between these two is EPROM can be altered while EEPROMs cannot. The DS3800NMEC1K1J has a silver square called a crystal oscillator which uses a crystal to create a high and precise frequency. The DS3800NMEC1K1J has ten half circle black transistors that are used to amply or alter electrical signals. The DS3800NMEC1K1J has nearly one-hundred resistors (restrict the amount of energy that flows through them). Call AX Control for more information. Any rectifier, capacitor, transistor, diode, or even integrated circuit in the normal Mark IV Turbine Control System Series assembly of this DS3800NMEC1K1J printed circuit board product offering should truthfully exist as part of a greater series of voltage-limiting hardware components streamlined for inclusion across the rest of the Mark VI Turbine Control System Series and the larger Mark Series product suite.
