About the DS200LRPAG1AFE
The DS200LRPAG1AFE is circuit board fabricated by General Electric as a modular component of the Mark V Turbine Control Speedtronic System Series. The MKV, which was one of the last of the Speedtronic steam and gas turbine control systems to be released by GE, can be configured in Simplex or TMR form, depending on the needs, size, and complexity of the turbine system. Either setup offers the end-user a high degree of reliability, the Simplex design using the MKV’s software implemented fault tolerance and the TMR combining this and the inherent benefits of a triple modular redundant architecture. Regardless of the design chosen by the end user, the MKV offers built-in diagnostics, a common hardware interface for gas and steam functions, online maintenance, and a direct sensor interface. While this DS200LRPAG1AFE PCB's Mark V Series' specific turbine applications are well-documented, it must be considered to exist as a now-obsolete legacy Mark product series from GE; given the eventual obsolescence-necessitated manufacturing discontinuation that happened in one of the many years beyond its initial GE Mark Series rollout. With this being the case, this DS200LRPAG1AFE PCB's greater Mark V Series is still quite the hot commodity on the general automated industrial marketplace, as it is one of the final-developed GE product series to make use of the patented Speedtronic control system technology mentioned just before.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS200LRPAG1AFE functions as a Line Protection Board. It is a smaller rectangular board with several drill holes, including one in each corner and at the middle of each edge. These can be filled by mounting hardware like standoffs or screws. The DS200LRPAG1AFE board is densely populated by components like a transformer, relays, several heat sinks with mounted transistors, jumper switches, potentiometers, high voltage electrolytic capacitors plus capacitors made from other materials, resistors, resistor network arrays, and diodes. Most of these previously-listed DS200LRPAG1AFE Board hardware components are actually Mark V Series-standardized components especially useful in various voltage suppression and limitation processes. The DS200LRPAG1AFE board also has LED indicators, a reset switch, several terminal strips, and female vertical connectors. This specific DS200LRPAG1AFE Line Protection Board is actually not the originally designed and developed product of its specific Mark V Series functional role; that would have to be the DS200LRPAG1 parent Line Protection Board not making use of this DS200LRPAG1AFE PCB's full three-fold revision history including two functional product revisions and an artwork configuration revision rated at grades of A, F, and E, respectively.
For proper installation techniques or for more information regarding handling or maintenance, please review technical support publications like product manuals or series user guides that should have been supplied by General Electric with your OEM purchase. Given this DS200LRPAG1AFE Mark V Series product offering's initial attribution to the now-obsolete Mark V Turbine Control System Legacy Series, it should not come as all to much of a surprise to find out that this DS200LRPAG1AFE product is not offered online with any great amount of originally-printed instructional manual materials. With this being true, in this instance, the DS200LRPAG1AFE functional product number itself can be considered a strong supplementary source of DS200LRPAG1AFE Board hardware component and component specification details, as it reveals specific informational nuggets in a series of functional naming segments. For instance, the DS200LRPAG1AFE functional product number is started off by the dual-functional DS200 series tag delegating this DS200LRPAG1AFE PCB's normal Mark V Series assembly version as well as its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other relevant hardware details revealed through the DS200LRPAG1AFE functional product number include this DS200LRPAG1AFE PCB's:
- LRPA functional product acronym
- Normal PCB coating style
- Group one Mark V Series product grouping
- A-rated primary functional revision
- F-rated secondary functional revision
- E-rated artwork configuration revision
