Description

Product Overview
The GE DS200STCAG1A is a turbine communication board designed for GE’s Mark V series of industrial control systems, widely used in power generation, oil & gas, and heavy machinery applications. As part of the IONET master architecture within the Mark V system, this board serves as a critical interface for real-time data exchange between the UCPB (Universal Controller Processor Board) and peripheral I/O modules, enabling seamless coordination of turbine control, diagnostics, and safety interlocks2813.

 

Engineered for rugged reliability, the GE DS200STCAG1A features 11 connectors (including 2PL, 3PL, 8PL, and 19PL types) to support diverse communication protocols like ARCNET LAN and RS232 for signal conditioning, scaling, and synchronization. Its configurable jumpers (JP2, JP4) allow field technicians to adjust voltage settings and enable factory testing modes without hardware modifications. The board’s multilayer PCB design ensures immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and high vibration, making it suitable for harsh environments like turbine halls and offshore platforms213.

Main Features and Advantages

 

  1. IONET Master Functionality: The GE DS200STCAG1Aacts as the IONET master for each I/O core in the Mark V system, facilitating real-time data exchange between the UCPB and field devices like RTD sensors, fuel control valves, and hydraulic actuators813.
  2. Diverse Signal Handling: It processes pulse rate inputs(e.g., from magnetic pickups) and generator/bus voltage signals, conditioning them for the TCQA and TCTG boards to generate control commands like generator breaker trips213.
  3. Modular Architecture: Its 3PL data busconnects to other I/O modules (e.g., TCQETCCA) for scalable system configurations, while the 19PL connector supports additional signals like compressor stall detection13.
  4. Rugged Design: With IP67-rated dust/moisture resistanceand a vibration-resistant build, the board ensures stable operation in extreme environments17.
  5. Hot-Swap Capability: Faulty units can be replaced without powering down the entire system, minimizing downtime in 24/7 operations2.

 

Application Areas
The GE DS200STCAG1A is pivotal in gas and steam turbine control systems, where it:

 

  • Manages synchronization checksbetween generator and grid voltages to prevent equipment damage during power grid connections13.
  • Processes pulse rate inputsfrom shaft speed sensors for precise turbine speed regulation.
  • Supports ARCNET LAN communicationwith other Mark V modules (e.g., TCQCTBQB) to coordinate safety interlocks and diagnostic routines28.
  • Enables remote diagnosticsvia RS232 for predictive maintenance, reducing manual intervention.

 

Beyond turbines, the board finds use in process automation for refineries and chemical plants, where it interfaces with PTBA terminal boards to monitor and control critical processes like pressure regulation and flow metering13.

Installation and Maintenance

 

  • Installation: Mount the board in the Mark V system’s R5 core chassisusing DIN rail or panel mounting. Connect field wiring (22–16 AWG shielded cables) to the 19PL connector for generator voltage inputs and 8PL connector for auxiliary signals. Configure jumpers JP2 and JP4 per GE’s GEI-100168
  • Maintenance: Regularly inspect connectors for corrosion and verify LED status indicatorsfor 异常状态. Clean dust with compressed air (avoiding direct airflow on components). Use GE’s Proficy software to recalibrate pulse rate scaling annually and update firmware during system downtime213.

 

Product Guarantee
GE offers a 1-year warranty for the GE DS200STCAG1A, covering defects in materials and workmanship. Units undergo rigorous testing for vibration, temperature, and EMI compliance. For urgent needs, the board is available from stock with 3–5 day delivery post-payment, supported by 24/7 technical assistance for configuration and troubleshooting813.
