Product Description
This DS200SHCBG1A General Electric printed circuit board was, as described above, originally manufactured for use in the Mark V Turbine Control System Series. As indicated by its full name, the Mark V Series has a set of specific applications in the control and management systems of wind, steam, and gas turbine automated drive assemblies. The Mark V Series is considered to exist as a General Electric legacy series, as its manufacture has been discontinued in the years since its original release. While the Mark V Turbine Control System Series that this DS200SHCBG1A printed circuit board belongs to is a legacy series, it also exists as one of the final General Electric product series to incorporate the patented Speedtronic control system technology into its products. This DS200SHCBG1A printed circuit board is better-defined by its official functional product description as a Shunt Connector Card, although it is not the original Mark V Series product offering of its intended functionality to be developed by GE. The original Shunt Connector Card designed and produced for placement in the Mark V Turbine Control System Series is the DS200SHCBG1 Shunt Connector Card missing this DS200SHCBG1A product's A-rated functional product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
As with any Mark V Series printed circuit board product offering, this DS200SHCBG1A Shunt Connector Card makes use of its own selection of functionality-introducing hardware component inclusions and specifications. The GE Shunt Connector Board DS200SHCBG1A features one 2-pin connector and two terminals for the bridge and motor signal connections. Various hardware components standardized to the Mark V Turbine Control System Series are included in the internal configuration of this DS200SHCBG1A PCB, including standard voltage-limiting hardware components such as resistors, capacitors, and diodes. Given this DS200SHCBG1A PCB's lack of available original instructional manual materials on the internet for research purposes, the DS200SHCBG1A functional product number itself is considered a strong source of DS200SHCBG1A Shunt Connector Card original hardware specification information, coding for details such as this DS200SHCBG1A PCB's

When you replace the GE Shunt Connector Board DS200SHCBG1A, you must disconnect the 3 wires from the old board and reconnect them to the replacement board. It is best practice to create a tag for each of the cables and wrap the tag around the cable or use a sticker that can be pressed on the cable to attach it. To disconnect the 2-pin cable, use one hand to keep the board from moving and use the other hand to grasp the cable connector and pull it out of the board connector. To disconnect the bridge and motor cables, use a wrench or other hand tool to loosen and remove the nuts on the terminals. Slide the cable off the terminal and move them out of the work area. Then, slide the cable over the terminal and secure it with one nut. Use a hand tool to tighten it enough to make it snug on the terminal. Over tightening the nut might cause the terminal to break. These original factory-printed installation insturctions must be followed to prevent damage on the DS200SHCBG1A board through lasting surface voltages.
Always make sure the wrist strap you are wearing is properly connected because otherwise it cannot protect the board and the drive from static. One end must be wrapped around your arm, hand, or wrist. The other end features a clip that must be connected to a metal surface that is free of paint. Some wrist straps plug into a connector on the workbench, providing an easy and secure connection.
