About the DS3800NPSC

The DS3800NPSC PCB (printed circuit board) was made to be a part of the GE (General Electric) Mark I system. Mark IV is part of the Mark series which controls and automates the operations of turbines. The Mark IV also protects the turbine and the operators of the turbine from conditions which may be dangerous. The Mark series have efficiently operated gas and steam turbines for decades. Mark IV was the third system of the Mark series to debut.

The first series created for the system was called Mark I. The Mark I was created in the late 60s, specifically 1968. The Mark IV automates all turbine processes. Processes such as startup and shutdown, gas and liquid fuel injection, as well as the turbine’s temperature are maintained by the Mark IV. The Mark IV has a diagnostic system which helps the operator to find out the cause of a problem. The Mark IV series includes a built-in printer. This printer creates print-outs which are timestamped. This creates a record which shows the operator whatever errors occured in the turbine and when they occured. The DS3800NPSC is a type of printed circuit board (PCB) which is known as a power supply circuit board. Power supply boards may contain diodes lined up in rows. Power supply boards sometimes have light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The light-emitting diodes glow when the component is functioning. Power supply PCBs like the DS3800NPSC often contain transistors. Small resistors may be situated on top of the surface of the DS3800NPSC.

The DS3800NPSC is always shipped in a type of packaging which gets rid of any static energy which may have accumulated during the shipping process. This packaging protects the operator shock when it is unpackaged.
