About the DS3800NTBD1C1D
The DS3800NTBD1C1D is a termination module manufactured by GE (General Electric) for the Mark IV Turbine Control System series. This series was created to manage gas/steam turbine systems , as you have more than likely been able to tell based off of its full extended series name, and has triple-redundant backups on critical controls and parameters, which allows it to switch control as needed to keep the system running. The Mark IV Turbine Control System Series must generally be considered a now-obsolete legacy GE product series, given the fact that its originally GE production was discontinued by the trusted industrial manufacturer due to a series-wide functional obsolescence identified by GE in one of the many year following its initial Mark IV Series product series rollout. With this being true, this DS3800NTBD1C1D device's greater Mark IV Turbine Control System Series is still very much a desirable GE Mark product series within its greater General Electric promotional marketplace, as it is one of Genera; Electric's last-developed Mark product series to take advantage of the patented Speedtronic control system technology originally seen with the release of the Mark I Series in the mid to later 1960s.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS3800NTBD1C1D works in conjunction with the larger DS3820STMA card. Termination modules are created to connect Input/Output cards and field wiring. They are often DIN rail mounted. Termination modules may be special function, digital or analog. The DS3800NTBD1C1D is a small auxiliary card with factory drilling designed to accept DIN rail screw mounts. There are two additional screw mounts parallel to these mounting holes toward the center of the card. The board is marked with two codes: 6FA05 and 6DA05. The DS3800NTBD1C1D has twelve metal film resistors of a single value. These are placed in a parallel line on one board edge. The resistors do not run in numerical order as marked; rather, the first three resistors are in the order of R1, R3, R2. PCB mating connectors on the DS3800NTBD1C1D are marked like jumper switches. The first connector, J1, is a female 37-pin connector with two screw mounts. J2 is a 37-pin male connector with two screw mounts. J3, which is marked 218A4807 P5 87942-5, is a vertical male 38-pin connector.
The DS3800NTBD1C1D has an additional twelve jumper switches, which begin at J4. Each of these may be either to O or to T. Jumpers on the DS3800NTBD1C1D are placed in one of four labeled rows. Row one, which is labeled RST, includes J4 through J6. Row two is labeled ADB2 and includes J7 through J9. Row three is labeled ADB5 and includes J10 through J12. Row four is labeled PAR and includes J13 through J15. GE was responsible for all technical support for the DS3800NTBD1C1D, including data sheets and manuals. Given this specific DS3800NTBD1C1D printed circuit board product offering's attribution to the now-obsolete Mark IV Turbine Control System Series, as discussed above, the DS3800NTBD1C1D functional product number itself can be introduced as a decently-strong primary source of DS3800NTBD1C1D Board hardware component and component specification information. as it codes for these relevant details indirectly through its series of GE-designed functional naming components. For instance, the DS3800NTBD1C1D functional product number is started off through an inclusion of the dual-functional DS3800 series tag responsible for delegating this DS3800NTBD1C1D product's normal Mark IV Series assembly on top of its domestic location of original General Electric manufacture.
