About the DS3800NPCM

The DS3800NPCM is a PCB made by General Electric. PCB stands for printed circuit board. This board is what is known as an analog exciter card. The DS3800NPCM is a component of the MKIV (Mark IV) series which is used for gas and steam turbine management. The Mark series has been developed and improved for fifty years. The DS3800NPCM is a daughter card. These small cards are designed to be connected to larger circuit boards in order to provide that circuit board with more options for functions.

The DS3800NPCM features four (4) long black resistors. Each of these resistors has a resistance of twenty watts (20w) or 675 volts (675v). They are each connected to the card with thin wires. White plastic mounts hold the resistors up away from the surface of the DS3800NPCM. The DS3800NPCM also features two (2) circular red components which are called metal oxide varistors or MOVs. The MOVs are called MOV1 and MOV2. A series of small metal jumpers can also be found on the DS3800NPCM. There are five (5) jumpers in total. These jumpers are called J1 to J5. Twelve (12) small holes are placed around the DS3800NPCM. These holes allow the DS3800NPCM to be screwed on to a larger printed circuit board. DS3800NPCM, which is the full name of the circuit board, is located on one edge of the card.

All products from AX Control are shipped wrapped in static-free packaging which will dissipate all static energy before the operator handles the part.
