About the DS200IIBDG1ACA
This DS200IIBDG1ACA printed circuit board product offering from General Electric was originally manufactured for the Mark V Turbine Control System Series, as discussed in the brief functional product description above. The Mark V Series that this DS200IIBDG1ACA printed circuit board belongs to, as hinted at by its full extended series name, has specific applications in the management and control systems of popular and compatible wind, steam, and gas turbine automated drive assemblies. With this being true, this DS200IIBDG1ACA PCB's greater Mark V Series must also be considered a now-obsolete legacy product series, as its manufacture was discontinued in the many years past its initial release due to a manufacturer-identified functional series obsolescence. The Mark V Series that this DS200IIBDG1ACA Device is a component member of, while obsolete, still attracts some interest on the figurative automated industrial marketplace; as it is one of the final-developed product series to make use of the patented Speedtronic control system technology first seen with the rollout of the Mark I Series in the mid to later 1960s.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The GE Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) Board DS200IIBDG1ACA contains nine indicator LEDs that provide a status of the processing of the board. The LEDs are visible from the interior of the circuit board cabinet and are red in color when lit. Generally, this DS200IIBDG1ACA PCB's voltage suppression and limitation is introduced with its normal Mark V Series assembly's acceptance of a series-standardized selection of hardware components and component specifications such as different types of capacitors, resistors, and even specialized integrated circuits. Each of the gate drive circuits contained in this DS200IIBDG1ACA IGBT Board's normal Mark V Series assembly has a specific functionality as outlined in the DS200IIBDG1ACA instructional manual above; this DS200IIBDG1ACA PCB's IGBT Gate Drive Circuits, for example, are provided for each output phase, and consist of optically-isolated gate drive modules with their own concurrent discrete components. Additional circuits important to the normative functionality of this DS200IIBDG1ACA printed circuit board include its Shunt Current Feedback, Gate Turn-on Delay, and Temperature Sensor Input Circuits. This DS200IIBDG1ACA PCB is both a highly-revised and customizable General Electric printed circuit board product, as it features a singular Berg-type manually-moveable hardware jumper in its assembly for customization purposes. As detailed once again in the DS200IIBDG1ACA datasheet attached above, this jumper specifically selects for the length of this DS200IIBDG1ACA Board's gate turn-on delay.
A 32-pin ribbon cable connector is contained on the board and during the replacement procedure you must consider the proper procedure to disconnect and connect the ribbon cable. The ribbon cable is made of fine wires which are easily broken or disconnected from the connector. If any of the fine wires is disconnected the signal it carries will not be sent to the board or received by the board. The ribbon cable has two tabs on either side that secure the connector in place. To remove the ribbon cable, grasp the connector on both sides of the connector and at the same time release the two tabs. Then, pull the connector out from the board. To remove the board from the drive, remove the four screws that hold the board in place. Make sure you keep the four screws together and store them in a safe place for future use. Hold the board by the edges and pull out the board from the drive cabinet. Place the board on a flat surface that is free of dirt, dust, and debris. Remove the replacement board from the static protective bag, flatten the bag on a clean surface, and place the board on the bag. This DS200IIBDG1ACA printed circuit board product offering receives its power from the IMCP Power Supply Board through the use of the VAC1 and VAC2 20 kHz square wave twisted-pair power supply connectors. The only significant difference between these two connectors functionally is their respective Pin numbers and their factory-printed nomenclature labels, of course. This DS200IIBDG1ACA PCB actually does not exist as the originally-developed product of its specific Mark V Series functionality; that would be the DS200IIBDG1 parent IGBT Board missing this DS200IIBDG1ACA product's full three-fold revision history.
