Product Description
This DS2020FECNRX005A General Electric product offering is a unique Mark V Series product, as it features dual functional descriptions in relevant General Electric instructional materials; both as a Field Exciter Board and as a Line Protection Board. This perceived dual functionality is likely a major contributing factor to this DS2020FECNRX005A PCB's classification as a printed circuit board within the Mark V Series with a special assembly version, as revealed by the inclusion of the DS2020 series tag in the DS2020FECNRX005A alphanumeric product number.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The General Electric Field Exciter Board DS2020FECNRX005A features 7 jumpers and 2 terminal blocks with 3 terminals on each. The jumpers are identified as JP1 through JP7. The GE Line Protection Board DS2020FECNRX005A also contains multiple prong-type connectors that consist of metal prongs that are covered by a matching socket connector. The IDs for these connectors include P1C1, P1G1, P2G1, and N1CI, as specified in original General Electric instructional manual materials. The cable attached to these various connectors originate on the component attached to the board with standoffs. When you connect cables to the board, first attach the board to the unit with plastic screws, before ultimately attaching the cables.
While cable connectors have their own set of installation instructions in this DS2020FECNRX005A device's pertinent instructional manual materials, so too does this product's several fuses. General Electric recommends the Mark V series drive administrator to obtain a supply of the fuses to have on hand in case a fuse blows out. If you plan to replace the board because the original board is defective, mark on the cable the ID of the connector, before noting how the jumpers are arranged on the board. If a jumper covers pins 1 and 2 on the original board, move the jumper on the replacement board to cover the same pins. When you move the jumpers, refrain from bending the jumper pins. Before making a purchase decision on this DS2020FECNRX005A Field Exciter Board, it is important to realize that the original hardware-specific information stored on this product page is reminiscent of the original DS2020FECN Field Excited Board, which is missing any revision functional or otherwise made to this particular PCB.
