Product Description
This DS200GGDAG1 printed circuit board was developed by the trusted automated drive manufacturer General Electric, specifically for use in the Mark V Turbine Control System Series, as mentioned before. This DS200GGDAG1 GGDA-abbreviated product offering's Mark V Turbine Control Series, as indicated by its name, is a Series of Speedtronic technology-driven automated drives and drive components with specific and crucial applications in wind, steam, and gas turbine configurations. This DS200GGDAG1 printed circuit board product is defined functionally in original Mark V Series instructional manual materials as a GTO Gate Driver Board, a functional description that reinforces this DS200GGDAG1 PCB's normal Mark V Series assembly status. While it may possess a normal style of Mark V Series assembly, this DS200GGDAG1 GTO Gate Driver Board is additionally definable as the first edition of GTO Gate Driver Board manufactured for the Mark V Series, as its DS200GGDAG1 functional product number is missing any trailing alphanumeric digits detailing a potential revision history.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
A number of specific hardware component inclusions and specifications all lend to this DS200GGDAG1 printed circuit board's functional status as a GTO Gate Driver Board. To start off, the GE GTO Gate Driver Board DS200GGDAG1 features 2 3-pin connectors and 2 bayonet connectors. The GE GTO Gate Driver Board DS200GGDAG1 also contains 2 sets of 4 LEDs; Each set has 1 red LED, 1 amber LED, and 2 green LEDs. The bayonet-type connectors on the DS200GGDAG1 PCB's base board require some special consideration when you replace the board. To disconnect them from the board, hold one by the connector and pull it away from the board. Only hold the cable from the connector portion and not from the cable, as you might damage the cable by pulling the wires out of the connector. This is especially true because of the plastic retention clips that hold the bayonet cable in the connector in the internal assembly of this DS200GGDAG1 GTO Gate Driver Board.
The two sets of LEDs on the board display the same information between both sets. One set is viewable from the side of the board and the other set is viewable only when looking down on the board's front face. These intuitive diagnostic LEDs provide information concerning the health of the board. The two green LEDs are lit when the board is processing normally and the AC LED flashes to indicate when activity is occurring, whereas the red LED is on when a fatal error has occurred. Finally, the amber LED is lit as a warning that a non-fatal error has occurred. This set of LED diagnostic indicators is one of the only hardware elements in the assembly of the DS200GGDAG1 GTO Gate Driver Board that is not protected under this DS200GGDAG1 printed circuit board's normal style of PCB protective coating. The normal style of PCB hardware coating made available to this DS200GGDAG1 product offering exists as a thick, rudimentary layer of base-level protection that envelops protects individual hardware elements in this DS200GGDAG1 Board's assembly on a functional priority basis. The normal style of PCB coating attributable to this DS200GGDAG1 GTO Gate Drive Board was discovered during an analysis of the DS200GGDAG1 functional product number itself, which contains other relevant hardware and software specification information, such as the DS200GGDAG1 PCB's normal Mark V Series assembly type, its GGDA functional product abbreviation, its domestic location of manufacture, and finally this DS200GGDAG1 PCB's Group One Mark V Series grouping.
