About the DS200TCPSG1A
This DS200TCPSG1A General Electric printed circuit board has specific functionality as a DC Input Power Supply Board within its Mark V Series of products and Mark V Series automated drive assembly, as stated above. In relevant automated industrial sphere conversations, this DS200TCPSG1A DC Power Supply Board's DS200TCPSG1A functional product number can be shortened to the TCPS functional abbreviation for convenience's sake. This DS200TCPSG1A GE product offering is not the original DC Input Power Supply Board offered by General Electric, however, as this specific PCB is a modified version of the preexisting DS200TCPSG1A DC Input Power Supply Board; altering the PCB through the inclusion of a sole, A-rated functional product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
As with any General Electric product offered alongside the Mark V Series, this DS200TCPSG1A DC Input Power Supply Board's functionality is supported through the use of several product-specific hardware inclusions and specifications. The GE Power Supply DC Input Board DS200TCPSG1A contains three fuses, one 16-pin connector, and one 9-pin connector. It also contains multiple test points in its internal assembly. When you suspect that the board has stopped performing as expected or has suddenly stopped working the first step in troubleshooting, as outlined by General Electric instructional manuals, is to examine the DS200TCPSG1A Board's three fuses. These fuses prevent damage to the board by shutting down the board if too much current is present in the board or if an irregularity has occurred in the current. With this being said, its is important to keep on hand a supply of the fuses with the same rating in case the fuses blow. These fuses must be exactly the same rating because a different fuse might expose the board to an over-current condition and lead to damage. To install a replacement fuse, the qualified servicer performing the replacement must have a knowledge of the drive and how to safely disengage the drive from power. Depending on how the board is installed and the accessibility of the board, the fuses can be replaced without removing the board. However, if you must remove the board, use a screwdriver to remove the four screws that secure the board in the metal board rack.
While the configuration and corrective repair process for this DS200TCPSG1A DC Input Power Supply Board's various fuses are certainly important, fuses are not the only piece of relevant hardware in this PCB's assembly. This DS200TCPSG1A PCB makes use of other crucial components, including a DS200-signified normal Mark V Series assembly, a normal style of printed circuit board protective coating, and a singular functionality-enhancing functional product revision rated at an A grade by the manufacturer General Electric. All of these hardware components were discovered upon a breakdown of the DS200TCPSG1A functional product number, considering the low availability of specific instructional manual materials detailing this DS200TCPSG1A PCB online.
