The GE part number IS200JPDFG1A is a DC Power Distribution Module (PDM) Card. Its primary function is to safely and efficiently distribute DC power to the various electronic cards and modules within a GE control system, such as the Mark VIe. ⚡
Function and Key Features
A PDM card is a passive but critical component that provides a centralized and protected point for the system’s power.
-
- DC Power Distribution: The card takes an incoming DC power source, typically from a rectifier or battery backup system, and routes it to various outputs. These outputs are then connected to the system’s power supply cards, which provide the regulated DC voltages needed by the control cards.
- Circuit Protection: The card contains fuses or circuit breakers for each power output. This is a crucial safety feature that protects downstream modules from overcurrent conditions or short circuits.
- Terminal Interface: The board provides a set of robust terminals for landing the incoming DC power cables and the outgoing cables to the power supplies. This simplifies wiring and maintenance.
- Robust Design: Like all GE industrial control components, it’s built to withstand the harsh conditions of a power plant.
Applications
The IS200JPDFG1A is a key component in power generation facilities that utilize GE’s advanced control systems. It is essential for:
- System Reliability: By providing organized and protected power distribution, it ensures that a fault in one section of the control system doesn’t cause a cascade failure.
- Safety: It protects both the equipment and personnel by isolating overcurrent faults.
