DS200EXDEG1A

Product Description

This DS200EXDEG1A printed circuit board from General Electric is an important part of their Mark V Series, as mentioned above. The Mark V from trusted industrial retailer General Electric is a series of circuit boards and internal automated drive system components that have been developed specifically as a system of turbine controls. This DS200EXDEG1A printed circuit board gained relevance within the Mark V Series given its intended functionality as a Mark V Series De-Excitation Control Board. This DS200EXDEG1A model of De-Excitation Control Board, however, is not the original product that General Electric released, as it modified the existing DS200EXDEG1 De-Excitation Control Board through use of a singular, A-rated functional product revision.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

As with any General Electric Mark V Series product, this DS200EXDEG1A De-Excitation Control Board makes use of an elevated number of hardware components to achieve its originally-intended functionality.The GE De-Excitation Control Board DS200EXDEG1A features 2 34-pin connectors, 2 10-pin connectors, and 5 indicator LEDs. It is also populated with 8 capacitors, test points, and terminal connectors. During normal processing the capacitors in the assembly of this Mark V Series product store high-voltage current and when signalled, a circuit on the board releases the high voltage. These same circuits again begin the process of storing high-voltage current. During normal operation the DS200EXDEG1A operator is unaware of the cycle and is not exposed to safety concerns because of the capacitors. The DS200EXDEG1A board has 5 OK LEDs that are visible to the operator, LEDs that light when the board passes all diagnostic checks performed at startup and remain on if no errors are encountered. This gives the operator a quick means of monitoring the status of the board during normal processing. The terminal connectors available in the internal assembly of this DS200EXDEG1A De-Excitation control board are used to connect jumper cables to achieve a particular processing outcome. The written documentation provides a description of the terminal connectors and the specific outcome that can be achieved by jumpering two terminal connectors together. The DS200EXDEG1A board's jumper cables have connectors that fit over their respective terminals.
