Product Description
This DS200GSIAG1CFD printed circuit board product offering is a well-supported member of General Electric's Mark V control system series, as mentioned above. This DS200GSIAG1CFD printed circuit board's Mark V Series is considered a legacy series, as it has been discontinued for manufacturing in the years since its original release. With that being said, the Mark V Series is a considered one of the newer General Electric product series incorporating their Speedtronic technology into its products, as the patented Speedtronic technology was originally released with the rollout of the Mark I product series in the late 1960s. This DS200GSIAG1CFD printed circuit board or PCB for short is better-definable as a Common Bus Regenerative Board; its official functional product description that appears in pertinent Mark V Series and General Electric instructional manual materials. While this DS200GSIAG1CFD printed circuit board is definable as a Common Bus Regenerative Board, it is by no means the original product of its functionality to exist within General Electric's Mark V Speedtronic Turbine Control System Series; that would be the DS200GSIAG1 parent printed circuit board missing this DS200GSIAG1CFD PCB's three distinct product revisions.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
This DS200GSIAG1CFD Mark V Series product offering necessitate a high number of product-specific hardware components and component specifications to gain full functionality as a Common Bus Regenerative Board. For starters, the GE Common DC Bus Regenerative Board DS200GSIAG1CFD contains three 40-pin connectors, two 16-pin connectors, and 6 jumpers. The board also has 1 8-pin connector, and multiple test points. Also included in the assembly of this DS200GSIAG1CFD printed circuit board are several of the more general voltage-limiting hardware components standardized to many products available within the Mark V Series; including rectifies, diodes, capacitors, integrated circuits, and more. The DS200GSIAG1CFD functional product number itself is a strong source of this DS200GSIAG1CFD product's hardware specification information, including:
- A normal style of Mark V Series assembly
- A domestic location of original GE manufacture
- The GSIA functional product abbreviation
- A normal printed circuit board protective coating
- A Group One Mark V Series grouping
- A C-rated primary functional revision
- An F-rated secondary functional revision
- A D-rated artwork configuration revision
Static electricity is always a consideration when you handle circuit boards because it can damage some components and lead to the replacement of the board. A wrist strap is a necessity to wear when you work with the GE Common DC Bus Regenerative Board DS200GSIAG1CFD. One end of the strap is secured around the wrist of the wearer and the other end is clipped to a bare metal surface nearby. For example you might clip it to a bare metal support on a workbench on which you are inspecting the board. Other wrist straps feature a plug that is plugged into a connector on a workbench. The wrist straps drain the static from your body and the board to the ground of the bare metal. To further limit static build up, don’t walk around with the board; instead leave it wrapped up in the protective bag in which the board was shipped. The bag is made of a material that prevents the board from collecting static. Don’t remove the board from the bag until you are positioned in front of the drive and ready to install the board in the drive. Before making a final purchase decision on this DS200GSIAG1CFD Common DC Bus Regenrative Board, it is important to realize that this DS200GSIAG1CFD General Electric printed circuit board has been altered from its original performance specifications and dimensions through the use of two functional product revisions and an artwork configuration revision.
