About the DS200UPSAG1A
As with any General Electric printed circuit board product offering manufactured for use in the Mark V Turbine Control System Series, this DS200UPSAG1A PCB is equipped with its own set of necessary hardware components and component specifications. The GE EX2000 Power Supply Board DS200UPSAG1A features:
- one reset button
- 3 fuses
- 1 LED
- 3 9-pin connectors
- multiple capacitors
The 3 fuses on the GE EX2000 Power Supply Board DS200UPSAG1A are designed to protect the components on the board from damage caused by an over-current condition. That is, if an irregular current or over current is present in the board, a fuse or multiple fuses will blow and shutdown the circuit protected by the fuse. It is a simple task to check the fuses in the assembly of this DS200UPSAG1A EX2000 PCB to see if any are blown. However, it is important to note that each fuse connector must have a fuse installed that is the proper rating. Refer to the instructions shipped with the original board from the factory to learn the proper rating fuse to use with each connector. To remove a fuse, pull the fuse out of the connector. To install a fuse, press the fuse into the connector.
DS200UPSAG1A Capacitors and Part Number
The GE EX2000 Power Supply Board DS200UPSAG1A is populated with several capacitors that during normal processing store high-voltage current and release it. During most conditions the operator is unaware of the cycle and the high voltage poses no risk. However, when the board is being replaced, the capacitors on the defective board might have stored high-voltage current. The high-voltage current exits the capacitors in 30 seconds after power is removed. For that reason, before you touch the board, wait 30 seconds for all current to exit the board. There are many hardware traits specific to this DS200UPSAG1A EX2000 Power Supply Board discoverable through use of its DS200UPSAG1A functional product number.
