GE DS3800HCMC/RR Dual Comm Control

 


 

Brief Product Description

 

The GE DS3800HCMC/RR (Dual Comm Control) is a specialized circuit board assembly designed for industrial control systems. Its primary function is to manage and process communications between different parts of a control system, providing redundancy and enhanced reliability through its dual communication channels. This board is an essential component for ensuring coordinated and fault-tolerant operation in demanding industrial environments.

Key Specifications:

  • Type: Dual Communications Control Card
  • Compatibility: GE industrial drive and control systems
  • Function: Manages redundant communication protocols and data exchange
  • Application: Industrial automation, data acquisition, and network integration

 

Detailed Product Overview

 

In high-stakes industrial applications, such as power generation or large-scale manufacturing, a communication failure can lead to catastrophic downtime or safety incidents. The GE DS3800HCMC/RR is engineered to mitigate this risk with its “dual” communication feature. Think of it as a redundant central communications hub. It can manage two separate communication channels simultaneously. If one channel fails, the system can seamlessly switch to the other, ensuring that data flow and control signals are not interrupted. This built-in redundancy is a key feature that distinguishes it from single-channel communication cards.

The “RR” in the part number indicates that the unit is a remanufactured part. This is a common and cost-effective solution for maintaining legacy industrial systems. By using a remanufactured module, companies can replace a faulty board with a tested and reliable unit at a lower cost than a new one, which helps to extend the life of their existing equipment. The board’s robust design allows it to operate reliably in the harsh conditions of a factory floor, including electrical noise and temperature fluctuations.
