About the DS200DMCBG1ALG
This DS200DMCBG1ALG printed circuit board product offering was designed and manufactured by General Electric, specifically for placement in their Mark V Turbine Control System Series. The Mark V Series that this DS200DMCBG1ALG printed circuit board was manufactured for has specific applications in the management and control systems of popular and compatible gas, steam, and wind turbines.
This DS200DMCBG1ALG printed circuit board's greater Mark V Series is still definable as a highly-sought-after GE product series despite its obsolescence, as it exists as one of the final-developed General Electric Mark product series to incorporate the patented Speedtronic control system technology into its various offerings. The Speedtronic control system technology seen in the Mark V Series and this DS200DMCBG1ALG Board was first released to the greater automated industrial marketplace with the conception of the Mark I Series in the later 1960s.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
As with any printed circuit board product offering made available to our extended new and reconditioned Mark V Series inventory here, this DS200DMCBG1ALG PCB's intended functionality is introduced with its normal Mark V Series assembly's adoption of a specific series of functionality-inducing hardware components and component specifications. The GE DOS DUP Processor Board DS200DMCBG1ALG contains three 26-pin connectors, one 40-pin connector, and 19 jumpers. The board also has 2 LEDs.
Some of the connectors that populate the GE DOS DUP Processor Board DS200DMCBG1ALG connect to a ribbon cable which is made up of multiple fine wires that carry control signals. The control signals are transmitted to the board from other components or boards in the drive. Other control signals are received by the board through the ribbon cable. The wires that make up the ribbon cable are easily disconnected from the connector and so it is necessary to never pull the connector out of the board. Instead, grasp the connector portion of the ribbon cable, steady the board with one hand, and gently remove the ribbon cable. This avoids putting stress on the ribbon cable which might pull some of the fine wires out of the connector.
The board is populated with several connectors so the old board could have many cables connected to it. To reduce the downtime for the drive caused by a lengthy replacement procedure:
- you can note where all cables are connected on the old board
- note how the jumpers are positioned on the old board and identify the jumpers by the identifier printed on the board
The quick and error free method is to set the jumpers in exactly the same positions on the new board.
Given this DS200DMCBG1ALG product's placement in the Mark V Turbine Control System Legacy product series, it should come as no true surprise that this DS200DMCBG1ALG Board is not surrounded by a plethora of originally-printed instructional manual materials for the research purposes of this DS200DMCBG1ALG personalized product page.
With this being true, the DS200DMCBG1ALG functional product number itself can be considered a strong primary source of DS200DMCBG1ALG Board hardware information; coding for various details in a series of consecutive functional naming chunks. For instance, the DS200DMCBG1ALG functional product number begins with the dual-functional DS200 series tag describing this DS200DMCBG1ALG PCB's normal Mark V Series assembly as well as its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other relevant hardware specifications revealed through functional product number include this DS200DMCBG1ALG PCB's:
- DMCB functional product acronym
- Group one Mark V Series product grouping
- Normal PCB coating style
- A-rated primary functional revision
- L-rated secondary functional revision
- G-rated artwork configuration revision
