Functional Description

IC3600SFRA1 is a Frequency Reference Card developed by GE. The module is a part of Mark I and II series. The module is designed to generate and provide stable frequency reference signals to other components within the turbine control system. These reference signals are essential for synchronizing system operations and ensuring smooth turbine functionality.

Features

• The frequency signals generated by this card are used for timing, synchronization, and control functions in turbine systems, particularly related to speed and operational efficiency.
• The card generates a reference frequency that is stable and adjustable based on the specific control requirements of the turbine system. This reference frequency is used to compare with actual speed or operational data, allowing the system to adjust turbine operations in real time to maintain optimal performance.
• The card is powered by the system’s internal power supplies, which include +12V, -12V, and other regulated voltage sources available within the control cabinet. These supplies ensure that the card operates reliably and consistently, providing a stable frequency reference over time.
• It allows for fine-tuning of its output frequency, making it versatile in different turbine applications where varying frequency ranges might be required. This capability helps adapt the module to a wide range of operational conditions. Calibration is essential to ensure that the reference frequency aligns with the control system’s parameters, particularly in high-demand applications where small deviations can affect turbine performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is IC3600SFRA1?
It is a Single Source board developed by GE under Mark I and II series.

How is the frequency output accessed?
The output frequency can be accessed through a patchboard on the card. These reference signals are made available for further processing or monitoring and are referenced to an analog common ground (ACOM) for consistency.

Can the output frequency be adjusted?
Yes, the output frequency of the Card can be calibrated and fine-tuned. This allows the card to adapt to different turbine control applications, where precise frequency control is critical.
