Product Introduction
The GE DS200SDCCG4AGD is a core drive control printed circuit board engineered for the GE Speedtronic Mark V turbine control and EX2000 excitation systems. Functioning as the primary controller for drive regulation, the SDCC board relies on a robust multi-microprocessor architecture to execute complex drive logic, phase control, AC/DC motion regulation, and real-time fault diagnostics.
The module coordinates high-speed signal processing and communicates seamlessly with surrounding rack components and operator interfaces, ensuring reliable performance in demanding power-generation and industrial drive environments.

Compliance & Standards Alignment
- Designed and manufactured in strict compliance with heavy industrial EMC and safety standards for power generation and turbine management facilities.
- Factory-applied industrial conformal coating protects internal circuitry from atmospheric moisture, dust, and chemical degradation.
Technical Note: When replacing an SDCC board, ensure that configuration parameters, jumper settings, and any onboard memory chips or EPROMs are correctly configured or transferred according to your specific system software version.
Storage & Asset Preservation Guidelines
- Store the circuit board hermetically sealed inside its original metallized anti-static (ESD) shielding bag to protect sensitive microprocessors and integrated logic elements from electrostatic discharge.
- Maintain warehouse storage environments where relative humidity is strictly kept below 60% to prevent edge-connector oxidation.
- Avoid mechanical stacking or heavy pressure on the board to prevent structural micro-fractures in the multi-layer printed circuit substrate.
Physical Installation Prerequisites
- Ensure that all system power supplies and cabinet feeds are completely de-energized and locked out (LOTO) prior to handling, insertion, or removal.
- Slide the board carefully into its designated slot within the control rack or drive cabinet, ensuring clean pin engagement with backplane connectors.
- Secure all faceplate fastening screws and optional daughterboards firmly to withstand continuous industrial plant vibration.
Buyer’s FAQ & Logistics
Q: What Harmonized System (HS) code applies to this drive control board?
A: Industrial electronic control system printed circuit assemblies and controller parts typically classify under HS code 8538.90 (parts suitable for use solely or principally with control apparatus). Confirm final categorization parameters with your licensed customs broker.
Q: Does the “G4AGD” suffix denote a specific product generation?
A: Yes, “G4” designates Group 4 hardware groupings, while trailing letters indicate specific functional and artwork revision levels. Always verify compatibility with your existing Mark V or EX2000 software version.
Q: Is the listed online price final for procurement?
A: Note: Price is subject to market conditions and available surplus inventory levels; contact our technical sales desk for a formal, time-sensitive quotation.
