About the DS200MBHAG2A

General Electric developed the DS200MBHAG2A as a multi-bridge hub communication card for the Mark V series of boards, as referenced above. The Mark V Turbine Control System Series that this DS200MBHAG2A printed circuit board product offering belongs to has to be classified as a now-obsolete legacy product series from General Electric, as it was discontinued for manufacture in the years following its initial release due to obsolescence. This DS200MBHAG2A printed circuit board or PCB for short's greater Mark V Series has specific applications in the management and control systems of popular and compatible wind, steam, and gas turbine automated drive assemblies, as proven through its full extended series name attached just above. While almost wholly obsolete due to its legacy series product status, this DS200MBHAG2A Mark V Turbine Control Systems Series product's Mark V Series is still highly-sought within the automated industrial marketplace, as it exists as one of the final General Electric Mark product series to make use of their patented Speedtronic control system technology, which was first introduced alongside the rollout of the Mark I Series in the mid to late 1960s. This DS200MBHAG2A printed circuit board product offering is not the original Mark V Series manufactured for its specific functional role, as it edits the DS200MBHAG2 parent Multi-Bridge Hub Communications Card through its installation of a singular, A-rated functional product revision.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

 Fiber optic communications links are provided by this board for the drive it is installed in. Applications for this board range across a number of GE series drives and automation machinery. Adjacent drive systems as well as multi-bridge system drives can utilize the communications links found on this board. DS200MBHAG2A includes a number of intricate board features that perform all communication and interface jobs. Communications primarily rely on the receiver/transmitter pairs found on the seven 1 Mbaud fiber optic data links that line the edge of the board. Both local and broadcast modes for the drive are controlled by the three fiber optic logic inputs found on the communications card. An integrated logic control system provides the board with the ability to run properly without user interference. 22 test points are found on the board, allowing users to test the system’s signal status, board commons, and power supply. Acceptable power supplies for this device can rate from 15 to 30 VDC. Luckily for the purposes of this DS200MBHAG2A product offering's personalized product page here, this DS200MBHAG2A PCB's original instructional manual materials offers a table detailing each one of this DS200MBHAG2A product's available Mark V Series connectors. Each connector in this DS200MBHAG2A PCB's assembly is accompanied by their own factory-printed nomenclature labels, as with any Mark V Series hardware component. Some of this DS200MBHAG2A PCB's specific fiber-optic connectors, for example, include:

  • The C1MODE U20 Blue Fiber-optic Bridge #1 Mode Communications Input
  • The C2MODE U21 Blue Fiber-optic Bridge #2 Mode Communications Input.
  • The C3MODE U22 Blue Fiber-optic Bridge #3 Mode Communications Input

Each of the above-listed connectors in the assembly of this DS200MBHAG2A printed circuit board product offering have been named through an amalgamation of their specific factory-printed nomenclature labels, their color for easy identification purposes, and their specific application in terms of the DS200MBHAG2A Board and their greater Mark V Series automated drive assembly. Each of these DS200MBHAG2A Board connectors correspond to different and specific Mark V Series SPCB Board MODE Channels, as revealed in the DS200MBHAG2A instructional manual attached above. Manufacturer provided installation parameters provided with the DS200MBHAG2A as well as the drive must be followed. These parameters include protective and preventive measures that will ensure the system operates properly. Please refer to the device’s datasheet and manual for a complete walkthrough for wiring and installing the board. Originally, technical support for this board and the Mark V series was provided by General Electric. AX Control’s trusted and knowledgeable sales team is happy to assist with all of your automation needs. For pricing and availabilities on DS200MBHAG2A and other parts and repairs, please contact our team by phone or email. Before making any final purchase decision on this DS200MBHAG2A Multi-Bridge Hub Communications Card, it is crucial to realize that this DS200MBHAG2A PCB's normal Mark V Series assembly and specifications have no doubt been altered by its possession of an A-rated functional product revision.

Reviews For DS200MBHAG2A

Internal Review
(5.0)

This MBHA board is part of the Mark V Speedtronic line of boards. It includes a programmable logic device for system logic. The programmable logic device on G2 boards is different than that on G1 boards. Be sure to order the correct board for your application. This specific DS200MBHAG2A Mark V Series product offering belongs to the more seldom-seen Mark V Series group one product grouping. This DS200MBHAG2A PCB is definable as a printed circuit card due to the relatively-small general dimensions of the product itself. - AX Control Lead Technician
