DS3820LIMA

Product Description

The DS3820LIMA is part of the Mark IV Speedtronic series produced by General Electric. This circuit board is relatively small and used in a larger series to control and run gas or steam turbines. A gas or steam turbine uses a large internal combustion engine to mix fuel and air to cause a contained explosion. This explosion creates a series of gases that are under a lot of pressure and force their way out of the engine causing the turbine to move at high speed generating a great deal of energy. The energy created by the moving turbine is then harnessed and used for a multitude of other purposes. The DS3820LIMA is a small circuit board with one large orange capacitor, two straight blue capacitors, and one large circular capacitor. Capacitors have an electrical field where it stores extra energy for the circuit board to use at a later time. The DS3820LIMA has two small light blue diodes and two larger dark blue diodes. A diode controls which way the direction flows. The DS3820LIMA has two male ports along one side. One male port is white with five gold metal the other male port is black with sides with ten metal ports. The DS3820LIMA has six light blue resistors with up to five color bands to show how much energy the resistors can restrict. The DS3820LIMA has a long black terminal with twelve screw tops. The DS3820LIMA has a red tower with a power port that attaches to metal bars with gold metal boxes with three grey wires attached to blue connectors on the circuit board. The DS3820LIMA is printed on the circuit board along with the emblem for General Electric. Where the circuit board is made (U. S. A.) is printed under the General Electric emblem. Each piece is also labeled with an alphanumeric code.
