About the DS200PCCAG7A
This DS200PCCAG7A printed circuit board was designed and produced to exist as a member of General Electric's Mark V Turbine Control System Series. The Mark V Series has specific intended applications in the control and management systems of compatible gas, steam, and wind turbines, within their automated drive assemblies.
This PCCA-abbreviated printed circuit board's Mark V Series is also one of the final General Electric product series to make use of their patented Speedtronic technology in its products.
While generally definable as a General Electric printed circuit board product offering, this DS200PCCAG7A PCB has a more specifically-defined functional role as a Power Connect Card or Power Connect Card Assembly, based on these descriptions' insertions in relevant Mark V Turbine Control System Series instructional manual materials.
While this DS200PCCAG7A PCB is definable as a Power Connect Card, the original Power Connect Card to exist as a member of the Mark V Series its its parent product; the DS200PCCAG7 PCB missing this DS200PCCAG7A board's singular A-rated functional product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The GE DC Power Connect Board DS200PCCAG7A serves as an interface between the drive and the SCR power bridge, and necessitates its own set of hardware inclusions and specifications given its specific functionality. The DS200PCCAG7A board doesn’t have any servicable parts and cannot be repaired so if it is determined that the board is defective the only option is to replace it.
With this in mind, it is probably a massive benefit that this DS200PCCAG7A Power Connect Card makes use of General Electric's normal style of PCB coating in its assembly, which should exist as a thick layer of PCB protective coating and insulation that extends to individual hardware elements on this DS200PCCAG7A product's base board on a functional priority basis.
This DS200PCCAG7A PCB makes use of several additional protective hardware elements in its assembly, making use of the standard number of diodes, capacitors, and integrated circuits present with any Mark V Series product offering.
Additionally, both AC and DC styles of snubbers have been adopted into this PCCA-abbreviated product's normal Mark V Series assembly. This was discovered upon an analysis of this DS200PCCAG7A product's group seven Mark V Series grouping, which is seen as the identifying factor behind this DS200PCCAG7A PCB's:
- acceptance of C and G-style frames
- its correspondence with the SDCI Power Supply Board
- its maximum ac voltage of up to 600 r ms
- its acceptance of line styles of both fuses and reactors
- its need for either a separate or common bus transformer
Several important manually-moveable hardware jumpers have additionally been applied to the assembly of this DS200PCCAG7A product, for the selection of different and important processing values, as determined in this DS200PCCAG7A Power Connect Board's original instructional manual inserted above. This Mark V Turbine Control System Series group seven product offering has an armature voltage scaling of 240 to 630 volts of non-regenerative voltage, as typical with PCCA Power Connect Boards credited to this seventh grouping.
This DS200PCCAG7A printed circuit board has been drilled in several locations around the outside of its base circuit board for installation purposes, with each factory-drilled hole being voltage-secured by a ringlet of insulated material, in observance of potentially-present damaging surface voltages and static electricity.​​​​​​​
