DS200TCELG1A GE Emergency Over Speed Board

Description:

The DS200TCEAG1A serves as an Emergency Overspeed Board within the GE Speedtronic Mark V gas turbine control system. This board is equipped with a microprocessor and multiple programmable read-only memory (PROM) modules, which are integral to the function of the GE Emergency Overspeed Board. In addition to these components, the board also includes three fuses, thirty jumpers, and two bayonet connections. It's important to note that while the replacement board for the GE Emergency Overspeed Board comes with PROM sockets pre-installed, the PROM modules themselves are not included.

Transferring the PROM modules to the new board is a straightforward process due to their easy removal and installation. Using the original modules on the replacement board offers the benefit of maintaining the same firmware and operational directives upon system restart. However, handling these modules requires adherence to specific precautions. The data contained on the PROM modules is susceptible to damage from static electricity, which can render them unusable by the CPU.

To safeguard against this, it is imperative to take measures to eliminate static from the modules. The most efficient method during board maintenance or while handling the PROM modules is to utilize a wrist strap. Proper use of the wrist strap involves securing one end around your wrist or forearm, while the other end, equipped with a clip, should be attached to a metallic surface. This ensures that any static electricity is safely redirected away from the sensitive components.
