DS200PCCAG7AG

Product Description

Mark V PCCA Power Connect Card DS200PCCAG7AG was produced by General Electric and is used for interfacing between the SCR power bridge and the drive's control circuitry. During the operation of the model, the PCCA board will use pulse transformers to supply gate drive functions to the SCR bridge. The PCCA  board can be used in high, low, or medium-horsepower controllers; when the PCCA is used in low or medium-horsepower controllers, the DS200PCCAG7AG is also equipped with snubber circuits that will be used to control potential spikes across the gate drivers, dc bus, and ac lines. When using this model in high horsepower controllers, some or potentially all of the snubber circuits may be excluded from the PCCA unit and will be located in another place in the Mark V system. 

There are several group variations of the PCCA boards; the DS200PCCAG7AG model is part of the G7 group variation, making it a regenerative board. The armature voltage scaling range on this board is 240-630 volts. Not only does this board have snubber circuits to control spikes with the attached controllers, but it comes with four wire jumpers. The wire jumpers are named WP3, WP4, JP1, and JP2. The jumpers are used for selecting system voltages and determining the snubber capacitor connections to ensure they are all functioning properly. While the PCCA board is equipped with wiring plug connectors and configurable jumpers, the board does not have fuses, switches, test points, or LEDs.
