About the DS200IMCPG1CDB
The DS200IMCPG1CDB is a Power Supply Interface Board originally developed by General Electric for their Mark V Turbine Control System Series.
The Mark V Series has applications in the control and management systems of gas, steam, and and wind turbine automated drive assemblies.
This specific board is a revised version; the DS200IMCPG1 Power Supply Interface Board is the base-produced version without its three significant product revisions.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
Due to limited online documentation, hardware details are partially theorized, but the DS200IMCPG1CDB functional product number reveals significant information.
- The DS200IMCPG1CDB connects via a cable to the 1PL connector on the DS200SDCC Drive Control Board.
- It is designed for high-voltage current operation and is equipped with eight fuses for overcurrent protection.
- Fuses can be easily checked by visually inspecting the contact inside.
Fuse Replacement and Safety
- To replace a fuse, all power to the drive must be removed.
- It is best practice to remove fuses of the power supplies that provide power to the drive to avoid potentially lethal surface voltages.
- After removing power, use a calibrated and approved testing device to confirm no current is present. Ensure tester probes are in good condition.
- Once confirmed safe, use one hand to remove the blown fuse and press an identical replacement fuse into the connector
