About the DS3800NPSE1B1A
The DS3800NPSE1B1A printed circuit board (PCB) by General Electric is an important part used for turbine operations. The DS3800NPSE1B1A is a power supply board. This device was made to be one of many components in the Mark IV (MKIV) system for turbine operation and protection. Mark IV is the fourth system in General Electric’s Mark series. Mark IV controls the operation of turbines and protects the turbine system from damage.
The DS3800NPSE1B1A features several different types of circuit board components. The most prominent of these components is a series of capacitors. Thirty-eight (38) yellow capacitors are located on the board as well as one (1) silver capacitor. Nine (9) of the yellow capacitors are arranged in one horizontal row near the top of the DS3800NPSE1B1A. Twenty-seven (27) other yellow capacitors can be seen directly below these. They are arranged in four (4) vertical lines. Three (3) of the lines contain eight (8) capacitors each and the last line contains three (3) capacitors. One (1) yellow capacitor is situated near the top right corner of the DS3800NPSE1B1A. This capacitor has a voltage of 500 volts (500v). The last of the yellow capacitors can be found at the bottom of the board near the left corner. This capacitors is smaller than the others and has a voltage of 200 volts (200v). The silver capacitor is metal and shaped like a rectangle. This component is positioned near the top right corner of the DS3800NPSE1B1A underneath the 500v yellow capacitor. Also positioned near these capacitors is one (1) orange LED. These devices are also known as light-emitting diodes.
