Product Description
This DS200RTBAG5A printed circuit board manufactured by General Electric is more explicitly-definable as a Relay Terminal Board, as indicated in this DS200RTBAG5A device's original instructional manuals and datasheets. This DS200RTBAG5A Relay Terminal Board, while it does possess a normal style of Mark V Series assembly, additionally makes use of an A-rated functional product revision, which alters it from its status as the original Relay Terminal Board manufactured for General Electric's Mark V Turbine Control System Series. The original Relay Terminal Board manufactured for this Mark V Series is the DS200RTBAG5 parent printed circuit board, notably missing the final A digit from its DS200RTBAG5 alphanumeric functional product number.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
This DS200RTBAG5A Relay Terminal Board is a Mark V Speedtronic Series product offering that utilizes its own specific series of hardware components and hardware component specifications to reach functioning status within its greater Mark V Series and automated drive assembly. The GE Power Excitation Board DS200RTBAG5A is an optional board that is installed in the Mark V Series drive cabinet and it features ten relays that are driven either directly from the pilot relays or remotely by the user. The DS200RTBAG5A is engineered to be installed in the board cabinet on the drive but the board is usually not installed in the board rack itself. Instead, it is often secured below the rack and it is secured with four screws and washers on four standoffs. The standoffs raise the DS200RTBAG5A board above the cabinet to prevent this Mark V Series board from touching the metal surface of the cabinet. The pluggable circuits available in the assembly of this DS200RTBAG5A PCB enable you to gain access to the K27-K29 relays through connectors C1PL-C5PL and Y9PL-Y37PL. You can configure the board through jumpers to define the source of power for the relays. To attach a wire to one of the connectors, press down on the holding clip for the connector and insert the wire. Release the clip and the wire is secure. To remove a wire, press down on the clip and pull the wire out.
Seven total relays are available in the assembly of this high-functioning DS200RTBAG5A Relay Terminal Board. Each relay is accompanied by its own set of two form C contacts and a singular state indicator lamp within each relay, for convenient diagnostic testing purposes. The specific application of these state indicator lamps is to glow in order to indicate energized relay states; these lamps should be on during normative functioning of the DS200RTBAG5A Relay Terminal Board and its Mark V Series automated drive assembly. All of the aforementioned hardware components in the assembly of this DS200RTBAG5A PCB should receive some basis of protection from the normal style of PCB coating that has been applied to this product, which exists as a thick rudimentary layer of printed circuit board protective coating that covers and protects individual hardware elements in the DS200RTBAG5A PCB's external assembly on a functional priority basis. Before making a final purchase decision on this RTBA-abbreviated Relay Terminal Board, it is important to realize that this DS200RTBAG5A board's original performance specifications and dimensions have likely been impacted by its addition of a functionality-enhancing product revision.
