DS200PCCAG5ACB

Product Description

The DS200PCCAG5ACB is a Power Connect Card (PCCA) that was created by General Electric. GE no longer offers any type of support for this board and it has become a little difficult to locate. AX Control does, however, make every attempt to keep this board stocked.

The DS200PCCAG5ACB was created to be a go-between a SCR power bridge and the drive’s control circuitry. It does this using pulse transformers which will feed the gate drive to the SCR bridge. This board is classified as a high horsepower PCCA and should be used with high HP controllers because it has eliminated all of its snubbers and has located them somewhere else in the system.  Besides not having snubbers, this board also has eliminated its use of an attenuation string. There are 12 plug connectors on the PCCA that can be used by the PCCA to send gate pulse signals that go forward and in reverse to the SCR bridge. It also can communicate with the power supply board using another one of its plug connectors. The power supply board that should be used with this system is a DCFB-type board. This PCCA also uses Leg reactors and fuses. It uses separate or common bus transformers.

The DS200PCCAG5ACB uses a total of 4 wire jumpers. These are labeled WP4, WP3, JP2, and JP1. This board is located just behind the drive control which is behind the power supply board. The PCCA is secured with these two boards onto the backside of a board carrier. There are 6 plastic holders that keep it secured into the carrier.
