DS3800NPIA

Product Description

The DS3800NPIA was manufactured by General Electric (GE). This device is a printed circuit board or PCB. The DS3800NPIA is a small part of the Speedtronic Mark IV series or MKIV for short. The Mark IV series is a system which is used for the control of both gas and steam turbines. The MKIV is one in a series of Mark systems. These Mark systems have been in use for five (5) decades to control turbines. These systems automate turbine processes and also protect the turbine systems from damage which may be caused by operating under unsafe operating conditions. The Mark systems’ technologies are based on processes which have been practiced and refined since the late 1940s.

The DS3800NPIA is a daughter board, which is a small card which can be attached to a larger board. Adding a daughter card to a larger circuit board adds extra functions and gives an operator more options. The DS3800NPIA daughter card is what is known as a high voltage input card.

The DS3800NPIA is a very small printed circuit board. This card features a total of twenty (20) grey resistors on its surface. Sixteen (16) of these grey resistors are medium sized. They are labeled with the letter R, as R1 to R8 and R11 to R18. The other four (4) grey resistors are smaller than the others. They are also labeled with the letter are and are called R9 to R10 and R19 to R20. Seventeen (17) large wire links (or jumpers) can be found on the DS3800NPIA.
