GE DS3800HXTA/RR Series 6 Transmitter
Brief Product Description
The GE DS3800HXTA/RR is an industrial transmitter module from GE’s legacy Series 6 control systems. Its primary function is to acquire and transmit signals from sensors and other field devices to a remote receiver or a main control system. This module is a crucial component for data acquisition and feedback, especially in applications where long cable runs are not practical or where data needs to be sent to a central control unit from a remote location.
Key Specifications:
- Type: Transmitter Module
- Compatibility: GE Series 6 industrial control systems
- Function: Acquires and transmits signals from field devices
- Application: Industrial automation, data acquisition, and process monitoring
Detailed Product Overview
In large industrial facilities, like power plants or chemical refineries, it’s often necessary to monitor equipment located far from the central control room. The GE DS3800HXTA/RR is the component that makes this possible. Think of it as the system’s “voice.” It’s designed to take data from a local sensor—like a pressure transducer or a flow meter—and transmit that information to a remote receiver. This allows operators to get real-time data on the status of machinery without needing to be physically present.
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.
