Functional Description
DS200TBQGG1ABB is a Terminal Board developed by GE. It is a part of Mark V control system. It is designed for use in automated drive cabinets, providing a secure and efficient connection point for various cables and ensuring proper signal flow throughout the system.
Features
- Size: The terminal board measures 11.25 inches wide and 3 inches high, making it a compact component that fits into the drive cabinet's interior.
- Terminal Blocks: The board features 2 terminal blocks, each containing 95 terminals for connecting signal wires. These terminals are designed for easy termination and organization of the signal wiring.
- Connectors: Includes 2 jumpers and 6 34-pin connectors, which are used to further integrate the board into the gas turbine control system.
- Mounting: The board has 5 mounting holes that allow it to be securely attached to the interior of the drive. These holes align with the mounting racks and screw holes inside the drive cabinet.
Installation and Setup
- Examine the Cabinet: Before installing the replacement board, carefully inspect the interior of the drive cabinet to observe where the old terminal board was installed. GE’s original installation manuals recommend positioning the replacement board in the same place to maintain system integrity.
- Cable Routing: Proper cable management is essential for both operational efficiency and safety. When reconnecting cables to the terminal board
- Signal wires should be routed neatly to prevent obstruction of airflow within the drive.
- Power cables should be kept separated from signal cables to avoid electromagnetic interference (EMI), which can degrade signal quality and affect system performance.
- Ensure cables are routed in a manner that allows for unobstructed airflow across the drive components.
- Overheating of components can trigger an overheat condition, causing the system to shut down automatically.
- Airflow Considerations: The components within the Mark V control system generate heat during operation. The drive relies on proper airflow to keep the internal temperature under control. If the airflow is restricted, the system may overheat and activate a safety shutdown.
- To maintain optimal cooling: Do not block airflow pathways with improperly routed cables. Arrange cables in a manner that allows for efficient ventilation.
- Power and Signal Cable Separation: One of the most critical aspects of installation is proper separation of power and signal cables. Routing them too close together, or allowing them to run parallel, can lead to electrical interference. The resulting signal degradation can cause malfunctions or unpredictable behavior in the system. It is best practice to ensure that signal cables are kept at a safe distance from power cables, and to avoid running them in parallel.
