Product Description
This DS200GSIAG1CEC Mark V Series product offering exists as a Common DC Bus Regenerative Board within General Electric's Mark V Turbine Control System Series, as alluded to above. The Mark V Series that this DS200GSIAG1CEC printed circuit board or PCB for short belongs to is definable as a now-obsolete legacy General Electric product series, given its eventual manufacturing discontinuation due to obsolescence that took place in the many years after its initial release. This Mark V Series, while a discontinued legacy series, is still something of a well-updated General Electric product series, as it is one of the final General Electric Mark product series to utilize the Speedtronic control system technology it its various offerings; a technology first introduced with the rollout of the primary Mark I Series in the later 1960s. This DS200GSIAG1CEC Common DC Bus Regenerative Board does not exist as the original General Electric product intended for that specific functional role; that would be the DS200GSIAG1 parent Common DC Bus Regenerative Board missing all three of this DS200GSIAG1CEC PCB's three significant product revisions.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
As with any General Electric printed circuit board product offering available here, Mark V Series or otherwise, this DS200GSIAG1CEC PCB has a specific functional role that is adopted through its internal assembly's acceptance of a specific series of functionality-inducing hardware components and component specifications. The GE Common DC Bus Regenerative Board DS200GSIAG1CEC contains three 40-pin connectors, two 16-pin connectors, and 6 jumpers. The board also has 1 8-pin connector and multiple test points. This DS200GSIAG1CEC printed circuit board is not surrounded with a wealth of original instructional manual materials on the internet, most liely a symptom of its attribution to the now-obsolete Mark V Turbine Control System legacy product series. With this being true, the DS200GSIAG1CEC functional product number itself can be considered a strong source of original DS200GSIAG1CEC board hardware information, beginning with its DS200 series tag holding dual naming functionality. The DS200 series tag at the very beginning of the DS200GSIAG1CEC functional product number is telling of this DS200GSIAG1CEC product offering's normal Mark V Series assembly and its domestic location of original manufacture. Some of the other relevant DS200GSIAG1CEC Board hardware details revealed in functional chunks of the DS200GSIAG1CEC functional product number include this Mark V Series PCB's:
- GSIA functional product acronym
- Normal PCB coating style
- Group one Mark V Series product grouping
- C-rated primary functional revision
- E-rated secondary functional revision
- C-rated artwork configuration revision
Whenever you service, maintain, or install boards in a drive, the servicer must be aware of some information to maintain the safety of all individuals nearby and also to avoid damage to the drive and all other devices in the area around the drive. Also, the better informed the servicer is, the faster the replacement procedure will be completed and the shorter the time the drive will be offline. Because safety is the first consideration, inspect the floor for moisture that can conduct electricity and cause an electrical safety hazard. Also, clean the floor of oil, grease, and debris which might become a trip hazard. Inspect the electrical cords and disconnect any that are ungrounded. It is best practice to not use them around a high-voltage device such as the drive or other powerful devices in the immediate area. Make sure the servicer knows where the emergency shut-offs are and also how to use them. In an emergency, you must act quickly to disengage the power. The servicer also must consider that working with a helper, assistant, or associate is the best practice. The assistant is there in case an emergency happens and they can shut off the power or call for help. The assistance can also help during the replacement and reduce the time needed for the drive to be offline.
