Product Description
This DS2020FECNRP005A printed circuit board was originally designed to exist as a member of the Mark V Series of gas, steam and wind turbine control systems and related products, as described above. The Mark V Series that this DS2020FECNRP005A PCB belongs to is considered a legacy series, as it is no longer in active production by its original manufacturer. This DS2020FECNRP005A board's Mark V Series is additionally considered one of the more recently-developed General Electric product lines still utilizing their patented Speedtronic technology, which was originally devised for the rollout of the Mark I Series in the late 1960s. This DS2020FECNRP005A printed circuit board or PCB for short is more explicitly-definable by its official functional product description as a Field Exciter Module, which appears in relevant General Electric and Mark V Series instructional manual materials. While definable as a Field Exciter Module, this DS2020FECNRP005A product is by no means the originally-developed PCB of its functionality to exist within the Mark V Turbine Control System Series; that would be the DS2020FECNRP005 parent Field Exciter Module missing this DS2020FECNRP005A Module's A-rated functional product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
To achieve a functionality as a Field Exciter Module, the DS2020FECNRP005A Module incorporates several product-specific and crucial hardware components and specifications into its assembly. Given this DS2020FECNRP005A Field Exciter Module's low amount of original instructional manual materials available online for research purposes, it should come as no great surprise that this DS2020FECNRP005A functional product number itself is a strong source of hardware information. The DS2020 tag at the very beginning of the DS2020FECNRP005A functional product number details this DS2020FECNRP005A device's possession of a special modular Mark V Series assembly. Some of the other information coded in the DS2020FECNRP005A functional product number includes this DS2020FECNRP005A product's domestic manufacture location, FECN functional acronym, RP005 style of printed circuit board assembly protection, and finally its A-rated significant functional product revision. The GE Field Exciter Board DS2020FECNRP005A features 7 jumpers and 2 terminal blocks with 3 terminals on each. The jumpers are identified as JP1 through JP7, and were included in this DS2020FECNRP005A device's assembly for convenient customization. The GE Line Protection Board DS2020FECNRP005A also contains multiple prong-type connectors. The board is installed on standoffs on another component of the drive. The signal wires that connect to the board originate on the component to which it is attached.
This DS2020FECNRP005A board and other components in the Mark V Series automated drive are disproportionately subject to overheating. Overheating can cause the components to wear out sooner than expected and cause the drive to experience intermittent problems due to the heat. Also, the excessive heat can cause a overheating trip condition to occur which causes the drive to automatically shutdown. This would cause a loss of production and cause inconvenience to the other operations in the site. Also, it would necessitate restarting the drive and a resolution found for the condition. The best practice is to install the drive properly with cooling being a major consideration; make sure all factory-designated clearance spaces are allowed for normative DS2020FECNRP005A module function. Providing excitation for a 24 A motor field; this DS2020FECNRP005A product offering can operate through the use of both NRX non-plugging or NRP plugging field supplies. Before making a final purchase decision on this DS2020FECNRP005A General Electric Mark V Series modular assembly, it is important to note that its originally-introduced performance specifications and dimensions have been altered through its acceptance of a singular A-rated functional product revision in its internal assembly.
