Product Overview:

The DS200CPCAG1ABB is a Contactor Pilot Board developed for the now-obsolete Mark V Series of GE Speedtronic turbine control systems. As a legacy product, the Mark V Series represents one of the final generations to utilize GE’s Speedtronic control technology, which was first introduced in the late 1960s with the Mark I system.

This particular model, DS200CPCAG1ABB, is a revised version of the base DS200CPCAG1 board. It includes two functional upgrades and one artwork revision, enhancing its performance and compatibility within turbine control environments.

Hardware Description & Features:

• Connectors & Terminals:

• 1 x 12-pin connector

• 2 x 2-pin connectors

• 4 x terminal blocks, supporting up to 12 signal wires

• Relays & Power Features:

• Includes a 24VDC 15A socket power relay

• Relay coil voltage rated at 115V DC

• Converts 115V AC input to 105V DC output for closing contactors

• Contactors remain engaged once closed due to sustained voltage levels

• Voltage Regulation Components:

• Equipped with rectifiers, capacitors, and diodes to stabilize voltage

• Relay and contactor system designed for high-voltage control circuits

• PCB Protection:

• Built with a durable, standard PCB coating to guard against routine wear and tear

• Conforms to GE’s hardware reliability standards for industrial turbine environments

Installation Guidelines:

Due to the mechanical sensitivity of the relay, special care should be taken during handling and installation:

1. Mounting:

• Relay is a tall, protruding component—avoid contact with cabinet walls or other parts.

• Carefully align the board with mounting slots; avoid applying excessive force.

• Use washers if included to prevent cracking the PCB when tightening screws.

2. Terminal Wiring:

• Loosen terminal screws, insert signal wires, and then tighten while holding wires in place.

• Ensure all wires are securely seated to maintain electrical continuity.

3. Connector Seating:

• Hold cables by their connectors and gently press them into position until fully seated.

• Double-check all connections before powering up the system.

Legacy Support:

Though no longer in production by GE, the DS200CPCAG1ABB remains widely supported through refurbished units and third-party suppliers. It continues to serve as a critical part of legacy turbine control maintenance and replacement strategies.
