About the DS3820DPMI1A1A
The DS3820DPMI1A1A component number represents a Digital Per Motor Module. This module was originally designed and manufactured by General Electric as part of the company’s Mark IV turbine control replacement parts. The Mark IV, one of GE’s Speedtronic turbine control systems, offered significant improvements over earlier systems through its breakthrough triple modular redundant control design.
The DS3820DPMI1A1A module functions as a Digital per motor module. Modules like this one are typically used to control connected devices via programmed outputs. Modules have inputs that can program the motor in specific ways using hardwired timers and switches, as well as digital switches.
The DS3820DPMI1A1A is a large module consisting of multiple parts. The entire module sits upon a metal carrier that has been factory-notched to allow for mounting. Above this is an open chassis with several components mounted within. There is a circuit board mounted directly on top of this chassis. To the left side, a second chassis/rack system is mounted above the bottom carrier. This connects to other components using wired connections. Finally, there is a third metal carrier to the left of the vertical rack system. This system has a second circuit board mounted on its exterior. The circuit board is the most heavily populated portion of the entire module. It is covered by a plexiglass protective cover and is separated from the vertical plate by standoffs.
