About the DS3820PSFE
The DS3820PSFE is a GE Mark IV power supply. The Mark IV was the third of GE’s Speedtronic systems to be released, and the first of these gas and steam turbine control systems to offer triple modular redundant control, which reduced significantly the amount of downtime caused by equipment issues. The DS3820PSFE can be purchased from AX Control as either a reconditioned unit that has passed inspection by our in-house technicians or as a new, never-used surplus model. The Mark IV Turbine Control System Series containing this DS3820PSFE Power Supply Board product has to be considered a now-obsolete legacy General Electric product series now; given the fact that its original General Electric manufacture was discontinued due to a General Electric-identified full-series functional obsolescence in one of the many many years beyond its initial GE Mark Series rollout. The Mark IV Series that this DS3820PSFE device belongs to has to be considered a now-obsolete legacy General Electric product series, although it is still desirable on the greater figurative automated industrial marketplace as it is one of General Electric's lastly-developed Mark Series to incorporate the patented Speedtronic control system technology across a range of its different offerings.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS3820PSFE is an L-shaped power supply with a wider base and a narrow tower portion. This unit has both internal and external circuit board components. The external circuit board has two lines of four female plugs located on its surface. This side also has two circular openings on its lower edge to allow cables access between the interior and exterior of the unit. The interior circuit boards include high-voltage capacitors, plug components, resistors, switches, transistors, potentiometers, and heat sinks. Surface wiring is used to connect various parts of the unit together. Multiple edges of the unit are open to allow for air circulation. As standard with any other Mark IV Series product made available to our extensive new and reconditioned inventory here, this DS3820PSFE Power Supply Board device's various listed capacitors, diodes, transistors, resistors, and specialized integrated circuits all truly exist as part of a greater voltage-regulation strategy standardized across the vast majority of Mark IV Series products. This DS3820PSFE Power Supply Board is more than likely also the originally-developed product of its specific Mark IV Turbine Control System Series functional role; given the fact that its DS3820PSFE functional product number seems to not contain any trailing, revision-indicating digits.
For a complete description of the DS3820PSFE, including step-by-step installation instructions and handling precautions, refer to technical support publications from GE. This includes data sheets, manuals, and user guides. AX Control offers hard-to-find industrial automation parts from manufacturers like Fuji, GE, Reliance, and Eurotherm.

This DS3820PSFE Power Supply Board modular assembly product from General Electric is of course never found contextualized within a large pool of originally-developed Mark IV Series instructional manual materials on the internet, in what must be interpreted as a symptom of the Mark IV Turbine Control System Series's legacy product series attribution. With this being the case, this DS3820PSFE Power Supply Board device's DS3820PSFE Power Supply Board functional product number itself's importance cannot be understated as it now serves to exist as a decently-strong primary source of DS3820PSFE Power Supply Board hardware component and component specification detail. The DS3820PSFE functional product number relays a number of critical DS3820PSFE Power Supply Board hardware informational nuggets through a series of carefully-developed functional naming chunks. For starters, this DS3820PSFE Power Supply Board's functional product number begins with the D3820 series tag indirectly delegating this DS3820PSFE product's special modular Mark IV Series assembly version on top of its domestic original manufacture location. This is followed in the DS3820PSFE functional product number by an instance of the PSFE functional product acronym.
