Energy Storage	220 µF at 35V

GE 173C8989ADG01 DS200SSBAG1BAA stores energy using two electrolytic capacitors. Together, they provide 220 µF at 35V rating for output hold-up. This energy storage maintains digital outputs during 25 millisecond power interruptions. Therefore, the card prevents false switching in industrial environments.

Design and Integration

Both the GE 173C8989ADG01 and DS200SSBAG1BAA versions share identical control logic. These cards use six-layer PCB construction with isolated I/O banks for noise immunity. Consequently, the GE 173C8989ADG01 DS200SSBAG1BAA operates reliably from -10°C to +55°C ambient temperature.

For installation, you need M3 screws for the four mounting holes. The card draws 300 mA typical current from the 24V DC supply. Each analog input includes software selectable filtering. We recommend using shielded cables for all analog field connections.

Practical Application

This control card manages industrial process control for turbine and drive systems. It reads sensor inputs and executes control algorithms in real time. The GE 173C8989ADG01 DS200SSBAG1BAA then sends output commands to actuators and relays. Therefore, it serves as a versatile controller for GE automation platforms.
