Product Description
This DS200TBQGG1A printed circuit board from the respected industrial manufacturer General Electric is a unique printed circuit board or PCB product offering that exists specifically as a member of the Mark V Series of wind turbine control systems and related automated drive products. As mentioned earlier, this DS200TBQGG1A PCB is more explicitly definable by its original instructional manual-introduced functional description as a Gas Turbine Termination Card. While this DS200TBQGG1A PCB exists as a Gas Turbine Termination Card, it is not the original Gas Turbine Termination Card offered as a member of General Electric's Mark V Turbine Control System Series; that would be the DS200TBQGG1 parent printed circuit board missing this DS200TBQGG1A product's singular A-rated functionality-enhancing product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
As alluded to earlier, many specific hardware component inclusions and specifications contribute towards this DS200TBQGG1A product's intended functionality. The GE Gas Turbine Termination Board DS200TBQGG1A's assembly features 2 terminal blocks. Each block contains 95 terminals for signal wires. The GE Gas Turbine Termination Board DS200TBQGG1A also contains 2 jumpers, and 6 34-pin connectors. The board is 11.25 inches wide and 3 inches high and it contains 5 holes for attaching the board to the interior of the drive. The interior of the drive cabinet contains racks which are used to support the boards and have screws holes that align with the holes on the board. When you are ready to install the replacement board, examine the cabinet and notice where the old board is installed. The best practice, as outlined in original manufacturer installation manuals, is to install the replacement in the same position. It is also important to notice where the cables are connected on the board and how the cables are routed. This also applies to the signal wires attached to the terminals, as improper cable routing will inhibit or block the free flow of air inside the drive; the components in the DS200TBQGG1A PCB's Mark V Series automated drive generate heat and the drive uses airflow to keep the interior of the drive cool. If the interior become too hot, the drive will issue an overheat condition and cause the drive to shutdown automatically. Another benefit of cable routing is that power cables cause interference with signal cables if the two types of cables are routed too close to each other. Interference can also occur if the signal cables and the power cables run in parallel. Proper cable routing will prevent this interference from developing.
