Product Description
This DS200TCRAG1A printed circuit board product offering from General Electric, as mentioned above, was originally developed to exist as a member of their Mark V Series, which has specific applications in the control and management systems of wind, steam, and gas turbine automated drive assemblies. The Mark V Series is one of the more recently-developed General Electric product series to feature Speedtronic technology, which was first developed ahead of the rollout of the Mark I Series in the late 1960s. While the Mark V Series that this DS200TCRAG1A PCB is featured in is one of the more recently-developed General Electric Speedtronic-powered product lines in existence, is is still considered to exist as a General Electric legacy series, as its manufacturing has been discontinued in the years since its initial release. This DS200TCRAG1A printed circuit board has a more specifically-definable functionality within this Mark V Turbine Control System Series as a Relay Output Board; the original functional description that it is called in Mark V Series and General Electric instructional manual materials. While this DS200TCRAG1A product is definable as a Relay Output Board, it is not the original product of this functionality to be developed for placement in the Mark V Series and related automated drive assembly; that would be the DS200TCRAG1 Relay Output Board notably missing this DS200TCRAG1A PCB's A-rated functional product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
This DS200TCRAG1A product offering is a printed circuit board that makes use of its own series of hardware component inclusions and specifications to achieve a functional Mark V Series status. The GE Relay Output Board DS200TCRAG1A is populated with 30 plug-in relays. It also has 4 34-pin connectors and 4 12-pin connectors. The IDs assigned to the 34-pin connectors in this DS200TCRAG1A PCB's assembly are JOR, JOS, JOT, and JO. The IDs assigned to the 12-pin connectors are JS3, JS4, JS5, and JS6. Because the GE Relay Output Board DS200TCRAG1A is populated with multiple relays which are delicate and easily broken off the board, it is important that you follow guidelines for handling the DS200TCRAG1A board when it is shipped to you. Hardware configuration is possible for this DS200TCRAG1A Relay Output Board, encouraged by the use of several manually-moveable hardware jumpers. These hardware jumpers, however, do no feature in the assembly of the DS200TCRAG1A Relay Output Board itself, instead existing on related Mark V Series terminal boards DTBC and DTBD, which are also available for repair and replacement through AX Control. This DS200TCRAG1A Relay Output Board has a normal Mark V Series assembly version, which is populated with many of the various streamlined hardware components standard to this turbine control system series; such as various rectifiers, diodes, capacitors, and resistors. One specifically-highlightable hardware component in this DS200TCRAG1A product's assembly is its set of various integrated circuits, which are described in detail in the above attached instructional manual. Some of the connectors in this DS200TCRAG1A PCB's assembly include:
- The JO TCDA Board Gas Manifold Signal Connector
- The JS1-JS8 DTBC/D Boards Relay Output Connectors
- The JOR/S/T Connector
All of these previously-listed connectors important to the assembly of this DS200TCRAG1A Relay Output Board have been named through a combination of their specific application to the DS200TCRAG1A board, interfacing potentials, and factory-printed nomenclature labels, except for the above JOR/S/T Connector, which has not been named as such given the fact that it typically goes unused during normative functionality of this TCRA-abbreviated printed circuit board product offering. All of the connections made to the base board of the DS200TCRAG1A Relay Output board should receive at least some level of base protection from the thick, rudimentary daily wear and tear protection afforded to this DS200TCRAG1A PCB by its normal style of General Electric printed circuit board coating. Before making a final purchase decision on this DS200TCRAG1A Relay Output Board, it is important to be cognizant of the fact that its originally-introduced performance specifications and dimensions have been more than likely impacted as a function of this DS200TCRAG1A PCB's addition of a singular A-rated functionality-enhancing product revision.
