About the DS200CTBDG1A
The DS200CTBDG1A is a Mark V GE DS200 control board that was used as part of a turbine control system. The Mark V was one of the later Speedtronic turbine control management systems released by General Electric. It was an integrated protection/monitoring/control system designed for mechanical and generator applications of steam or gas turbines. The MKV could also be used for balance of plant controls. It is still something of a desirable General Electric product series, as it is one of the final Mark Series renditions to make use of the Speedtronic control system technology. This DS200CTBDG1A printed circuit board or PCB for short is not the originally-developed product of its intended Mark V Series functional role; that would be the DS200CTBDG1 parent Relay Solenoid Terminal Board missing this DS200CTBDG1A product offering's singular A-rated functional product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS200CTBDG1A functions as a termination board within the Mark V system. The board is typically installed within the system’s C core, in the common data processor. The DS200CTBDG1A board communicates with other points and boards in the larger system using communication links on IONet (Ethernet) via RS-232 9-pin d-shell wired connections and IONet Ethernet pin connectors. In terms of voltage suppression and protections in the normal Mark V Series assembly of this DS200CTBDG1A product offering, this CTBD-abbreviated printed circuit board's base PCB is populated by a standard series of Mark V Series-standardized voltage-limiting hardware components including various styles of capacitors, resistors, and integrated circuits.
Given this DS200CTBDG1A printed circuit board product offering's attribution to the Mark V series, it should come as no real surprise that the DS200CTBDG1A functional product number itself can be considered a strong source of DS200CTBDG1A Board hardware component and component specification information; coding for various DS200CTBDG1A Board details in a series of functional naming chunks. For example, the DS200CTBDG1A functional product number begins with the dual-functional DS200 series tag delegating this DS200CTBDG1A PCB's normal Mark V Series assembly as well as its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other relevant hardware details revealed through use of the DS200CTBDG1A functional product number include this DS200CTBDG1A PCB's:
- CTBD functional product abbreviation
- Normal PCB coating style
- Group one Mark V Series product grouping
- A-rated functional product revision
The DS200CTBDG1A is a static-sensitive component. It is recommended anyone handling this board make use of antistatic wrist straps to prevent static buildup that may cause damage to the components or possible static shock. Only well-trained personnel who are familiar with Mark V equipment should install or maintain this equipment. For detailed information regarding proper handling, for maintenance schedules, and for information regarding possible board hazards, please refer to documentation originally provided by General Electric with your OEM purchase such as manuals or user guides.
