About the DS200DCFBG1BNC

Overview of the General Electric DS200DCFBG1BNC Power Supply Board

• The DS200DCFBG1BNC is a power supply board specifically manufactured for General Electric's Mark V series of replacement and optional boards.
• It is an integral component of the Speedtronic Mark V control system, which finds applications in the control and management of wind, steam, and gas turbine automated drive assemblies.
• This card provides system control level power and supplies electricity to the enclosure fan.
• It is compatible with various GE brand exciters and drives, including the FC2000, AC2000, DC2000, ME2000, and CB2000 series.
• While initially relevant to alternative energy assemblies, the Mark V Series (including this board) is now considered an obsolete legacy product series due to discontinued production.
• Despite its obsolescence, the Mark V Series remains highly esteemed as it is one of the final GE Mark product series to widely incorporate the patented Speedtronic control system technology.
• The DS200DCFBG1BNC is not the original power supply board for the Mark V Series; that would be the DS200DCFBG1 parent Power Supply Board, which lacks the DS200DCFBG1BNC's three significant product revisions.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

• The DS200DCFBG1BNC features unique hardware components and specifications.
• It safely accepts input voltages ranging from 38 to 115 VAC.
• The board includes five circuits: a driver circuit, the control level supply circuit, a motor field power circuit, and both an AC and a DC monitoring circuit.
• Three protected fuses are onboard to prevent circuit disruptions from interruptions or surges.
• Integrated LED and neon indicators alert users if any fuses require attention.
• Five test points are available for monitoring voltage levels. These include:
  • P5 Regulated Power Supply Test Point
  • DCOM Test Signals Common Reference Test Point
  • P15 Positive Power Supply Test Point
  • N15 Negative Power Supply Test Point
  • ACCT ACCT Signal DCFB/SDCC Test Point
• The naming of these test points combines their factory-printed labels, voltage ratings, and functionality within the board and the Mark V Series assembly.
• Users can customize the board's functionality using twelve configurable jumpers and seven DIP switches.
• The DS200DCFBG1BNC incorporates a voltage protection and suppression strategy featuring various capacitors, transistors, resistors, diodes, and integrated circuits.
• While normally having twelve configurable jumpers, this board utilizes thirteen, due to its elevated revision history which includes the JP13 Scaling Select for Shunt Jumper.
• Jumpers labeled JP13 or JP14, if present, are considered harmless, vestigial structures as they are described as deleted jumper styles in the original manual.

Installation and Support

• Installation parameters provided with the board and drive must be followed to ensure proper operation.
• An illustrated guide to wiring and installing the board is available in the device’s manual and datasheet.
• The DS200DCFBG1BNC should be handled as a static-sensitive product and may have potentially lethal surface voltages during or after use.
• General Electric originally provided technical support for all Mark V series boards.
