Product Description
The GE Field Exciter Board DS2020FECNRX010A features 7 jumpers and 2 terminal blocks with 3 terminals on each. The jumpers are identified as JP1 through JP7. The GE Line Protection Board DS2020FECNRX010A also contains multiple prong-type connectors. The board is installed on standoffs on another component of the drive. The signal wires that connect to the board originate on the component to which it is attached.
The board and the component it is attached to generate heat and are designed to be connected to high-voltage current. For that reason, the drive must be situated in an environment with free flowing air that can cool the drive and the components inside. Once the drive is installed you will notice if the drive remains cool or if the drive temperature causes it to reach the high temperature threshold and automatically shut off.
First notice if the drive will be surrounded by other devices that generate heat and determine if the devices will be too close. Even if the devices are heat producing you can allow space for the heated air to escape. You might determine that fans are necessary between the drives and other devices. Make sure the fans move enough air and are in good working order to remain in service. In some situations, hoods are used to collect the heated air and exhaust it out of the environment. Make sure the hoods are clean and are large enough to perform as expected.
Make sure nearby rooms do not have devices that heat the walls and add to the heat around the drive.
