GE IS200DACBG1A AC DC CONVERTER

The GE part number IS200DACBG1A is an AC/DC Converter. This component is a part of GE’s Mark VI Speedtronic turbine control system. Its primary function is to convert incoming AC voltage into a regulated DC voltage to power the various electronic circuit boards in the control cabinet. ⚡

Function and Key Features

A turbine control system’s electronics require a stable and clean direct current (DC) power supply to operate reliably. The AC/DC converter performs this crucial role.

• Voltage Conversion: The board takes the incoming alternating current (AC) power from a source and rectifies it, converting it into direct current (DC).
• Voltage Regulation: The “converter” part of the name implies that it also regulates the output voltage. This is critical for protecting the sensitive electronic components on other boards from voltage spikes or drops. The converter ensures a stable and consistent DC voltage, typically at a specific level like 28VDC or 12VDC, that the system’s electronics need.
• Protection: The board is designed to include safety features such as overcurrent, overvoltage, and short-circuit protection to prevent damage to the system in the event of an electrical fault.
• Robust Design: Like all GE industrial control components, it’s built to withstand the harsh conditions of a power plant, including vibrations, temperature fluctuations, and electromagnetic interference.

Applications

The IS200DACBG1A is used in power generation facilities that operate GE’s Mark VI turbine control systems. It is an essential component for:

• System Power: It provides the electrical power necessary for the entire control panel to operate.
• Reliability: By ensuring a consistent and clean power source, it contributes to the overall reliability and performance of the turbine control system.
