Product Description
The General Electric DS200RTBAG1A is a relay terminal board (RTBA) developed for the Mark V board series. This optional board can be installed in a number of GE brand drive or exciter cabinets. The Mark V Series that this DS200RTBAG1A product offering belongs to has specific applications in the control and management systems of compatible wind, steam, and gas turbine automated drive assemblies, and is considered a General Electric legacy series as it has been discontinued for production in the years following its original release. While the Mark V Turbine Control System Series is considered a GE legacy series, it is also identifiable as one of the final General Electric product series to incorporate their patented Speedtronic control system technology into its products. This DS200RTBAG1A Relay Terminal Board is not the original product offering of its functionality to exist within the Mark V Turbine Control System Series; that would be the DS200RTBAG1 Relay Terminal Board missing this DS200RTBAG1A product's A-rated functional product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
This DS200RTBAG1A Relay Terminal Board is populated by its own series of hardware components and component specifications that introduce its originally-intended Mark V Series functionality. When installed, this card provides the drive with an additional ten relays. These relays can be driven either by the pilot relays housed on the LAN I/O terminal board (GE P/N 531X307LTB) or by the user remotely. Seven of the relays found on the board are DPDT relays that feature 2 Form C contacts. The remaining three relays are 4PDT type, with four Form C contacts. The DPDT relays are found in positions K20 through K26. Voltages for these relays include a 110 VDC coil and 10 A contacts. K27 through K29 are the designated positions for these three relays. Relay voltages for these include a 110 VDC coil and 1 A contacts. Each relay found on the board is protected from surges and interruptions by a 130 VAC metal oxide varistor (MOV). Should any relays burn out, each is easily easily replaceable by the user. Each relay in this DS200RTBAG1A Relay Terminal Board's assembly should be accompanied by its own lamp inside each relay. Called a state indicator lamp, these LED indicators glow to indicate normal functional status of each relay.
While the hardware specifications for this DS200RTBAG1A printed circuit board's relays are specifically important given its description as a Relay Terminal Board, this DS200RTBAG1A PCB still makes use of many Mark V Series-standardized hardware components, beginning with its series of diodes which have been included for basic voltage protection purposes. This DS200RTBAG1A PCB is additionally drilled in each corner of the slender base circuit board to provide insulated and sturdy drill-holes for the DS200RTBAG1A board's installation. Manufacturer provided installation parameters for both the relay terminal board and the installed drive must be followed. These instructions will protect the entire drive unit from any accidental damages. Wiring guides for installing DS200RTBAG1A are available in both the user manual and device datasheet. Technical support for all boards in the Mark V series was originally provided by General Electric.
