Product Description
The IC3600SSVG1 is a servo valve drive card made by General Electric (GE). A servo valve is an electrically operated valve which controls fluids. Servo drives may provide precise control over the position, pressure, velocity, and force of fluids. The IC3600SSVG1 card is an example of a printed circuit board or PCB. The IC3600SSVG1 was created to be a part of the Mark I-II turbine control system. Mark I and II have each been in use for decades since their creation in 1969 and 1973 respectively. These series are the earliest two in the Speedtronic Mark line. This line was created to provide superior control, automation, and safety of gas turbine systems.
The IC3600SSVG1 is made up of a large PCB or printed circuit board which features a long metal plate. This metal plate features a total of four (4) large red components which are connected to the surface of the printed circuit board with white wires. One (1) blue potentiometer is featured on the board right next to this plate. Also known as a variable resistor, this potentiometer features a knob which may be adjusted to change the resistance of the component. One (1) integrated circuit is positioned on both ends of the IC3600SSVG1. Integrated circuits are components which feature a self-contained network of very tiny electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, and other parts. A number of small square shaped capacitors which are solid red can be found throughout the IC3600SSVG1, along with a number of other capacitors and resistors in various colors.
