Description
1. Product Description
The DS200TCRAG1AAA is a high-reliability relay output board designed by General Electric (GE) for its Mark V gas turbine control systems. This module plays a critical role in converting digital signals into relay operations, enabling precise control of solenoids, valves, and other industrial actuators. As part of GE’s legacy Mark V series, the DS200TCRAG1AAA leverages Speedtronic technology to ensure stable performance in harsh environments, making it ideal for power generation, oil and gas, and industrial automation applications.

- EMI Resistance: Shielded design minimizes interference in high-noise environments.
- Modular Expansion: Works with GE’s DTBC/DTBD terminal boards for voltage distribution.
- Case Study: A major energy plant reduced maintenance downtime by 20% using the DS200TCRAG1AAA, thanks to its hardware-configurable relays and quick replacement.
4. Application Areas and Application Cases
- Power Generation: Gas turbine valve control and safety interlock systems.
- Oil and Gas: Refinery processes requiring precise solenoid actuation.
- Industrial Automation: High-reliability relay switching in machinery.
Case Study: A U.S. power plant upgraded its gas turbine fleet with the DS200TCRAG1AAA, achieving a 15% improvement in system response time and reduced downtime.
5. Competition Comparison
Compared to similar modules:
- Higher Relay Density: 30 relays vs. typical 24–28 in competitive products.
- No Software Dependency: Hardware jumpers enable faster configuration than software-based alternatives.
- Native Compatibility: Optimized for GE’s Mark V systems, reducing integration complexity.
6. Selection Suggestions
- Core Type: Choose CD or QD cores based on your system’s digital I/O requirements.
- Relay Capacity: Ensure the 30-relay count matches your application’s I/O needs.
- Terminal Boards: Pair with GE’s DTBC/DTBD boards for proper voltage distribution.
7. Precautions
- ESD Protection: Use anti-static equipment during handling to avoid component damage.
- Connector Alignment: Verify JS connector compatibility with DTBC/DTBD boards.
- Storage: Store in a dry, clean environment using anti-static packaging.
