GE DS200TCPSG1APE | Mark V Speedtronic Power Distribution Board

Product Description

The GE DS200TCPSG1APE DC Power Supply Input Board is engineered for the Mark V Speedtronic Turbine Control System, delivering stable and redundant DC power to critical turbine control subsystems. It supports multiple input voltages and provides isolated output rails, including +5 V, ±15 V, and +24 V, ensuring reliable operation of gas and steam turbines. Moreover, the board features automatic fault switching with N+1 redundancy, allowing uninterrupted performance during component failure. Therefore, it is ideal for industrial applications that demand high reliability, fast fault recovery, and robust operation in harsh environments. In addition, integrated diagnostic tools with serial connectivity allow convenient monitoring and configuration for preventive maintenance.
