Product Description
This DS200SDCCG1ABA Drive Control Card was, as mentioned previously, originally manufactured for placement in General Electric's Mark V Series. The Mark V Series is the fifth generation of Speedtronic Turbine Control System manufactured by the giant industrial retailer General Electric, and has been distributed under many General Electric shell companies, including GE Industrial Systems, GE Drive Control Systems, and more recently, GE Energy. This DS200SDCCG1ABA Drive Control Card is actually the updated version of an earlier Mark V Series product offering, altering the DS200SDCCG1ABA De-Excitation Control Board through its inclusion of three total product revisions; two functional product revisions and a singular, A-rated artwork revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The General Electric Drive Control Board DS200SDCCG1ABA is the primary controller for the Mark V Series drive. The GE Drive Control Board DS200SDCCG1ABA is populated with 3 microprocessors and RAM that can be accessed by multiple microprocessors at the same time. These microprocessors are designed to perform different functions; One microprocessor performs motor control functions that require additional processing capability. There are two other microprocessors that perform signal I/O functions including watchdog timer, and direct memory access controller functions. One of these two final microprocessors performs functions that requires very dedicated mathematical processing capabilities, so little to no simple replacement options exist for this DS200SDCCG1ABA De-Excitation Control Board.
This DS200SDCCG1ABA De-Excitation Control Board must be treated as a static-sensitive device. Static that is on your body and other metal structures can damage some components on the board. Best practice to avoid damaging the DS200SDCCG1ABA PCB with static electricity is to treat all circuit boards as static sensitive, while following any relevant General Electric guidelines. When you handle the board, make sure to always wear a wrist strap; with one end of the wrist strap being attached to your wrist and the other end clips to a bare metal surface on the workbench or other metal structure. For convenience's sake, some wrist straps are equipped with a plug that connects to a connector on the workbench. Either way, any static is drained from the board or your body to ground supplied by the bare metal. This three-times-revised Mark V Series product offering will be shipped in static-sensitive packing materials immediately upon your original purchase here.
