Product Introduction
The GE DS200DTBDG1ABB is a specialized printed circuit board engineered for integration within the Speedtronic Mark V turbine control ecosystem. Operating primarily as a terminal board and contact output expansion module, the DTBD board provides a robust interconnection bridge between complex drive assemblies, field instrumentation, and the core control processing architecture.
Designed to support wind, gas, and steam turbine automated drive configurations, the board is populated with high-density terminal blocks, dedicated test points, configuration jumpers, and multi-pin interface connectors (such as 34-pin and 40-pin headers) to ensure seamless signal routing and pass-through reliability.

Compliance & Standards Alignment
- Manufactured in accordance with heavy industrial electrical specifications for power generation and large rotating equipment management.
- Features standard industrial PCB conformal coating to protect underlying copper traces and passive components from atmospheric moisture, dust, and corrosive industrial environments.
Technical Note: When servicing or replacing the DTBD board, meticulously label all incoming signal wires and ribbon cable headers prior to detachment to prevent misconnection and safeguard against control logic errors during recommissioning.
Storage & Asset Preservation Guidelines
- Store the circuit board hermetically sealed inside its original metallized anti-static (ESD) shielding bag to protect mounted components and connector pins from static discharge and oxidation.
- Maintain warehouse storage environments where relative humidity is strictly kept below 60%.
- Avoid mechanical stacking or heavy pressure on the board to prevent physical damage to terminal block housings or structural board flexing.
Physical Installation Prerequisites
- Ensure that all drive power supplies, local control feeds, and cabinet interfaces are completely de-energized and locked out (LOTO) prior to handling, wiring, or replacement.
- Mount the board securely into its designated position within the drive enclosure using all specified panel mounting screws.
- Verify that terminal screws are properly torqued down on field conductors to prevent high-resistance connections or vibration-induced loosening under heavy industrial operating conditions.
Buyer’s FAQ & Logistics
Q: What Harmonized System (HS) code applies to this Mark V termination board?
A: Industrial electronic control system printed circuit assemblies and control panel parts typically classify under HS code 8538.90 (parts suitable for use solely or principally with control apparatus). Confirm final classification parameters with your licensed customs broker.
Q: Is the DS200DTBDG1ABB interchangeable with earlier DTB layout revisions?
A: Revision suffixes (such as “G1ABB”) denote specific hardware layout, component placement, or circuit updates. Always verify your system’s BOM compatibility and panel documentation before substituting alternative board versions.
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.
