GE DS200TCQBG2A DS200TCQBG2AEB stores energy using two electrolytic capacitors. Together, they provide 220 µF at 35V rating for output hold-up. This energy storage maintains analog outputs during 25 millisecond power interruptions. Therefore, actuators remain stable through brief voltage dips.
Design and Integration
Both the GE DS200TCQBG2A and DS200TCQBG2AEB versions share identical analog I/O circuitry. These boards use six-layer PCB construction with separate analog and digital grounds. Consequently, the GE DS200TCQBG2A DS200TCQBG2AEB operates reliably from -10°C to +55°C ambient temperature.
For installation, you need M3 screws for the four mounting holes. The board draws 300 mA typical current from the 24V DC supply. Each output channel can drive loads up to 20 mA maximum. We recommend using shielded cables for all analog field connections.
Practical Application
This extended analog I/O board connects field sensors and actuators to a turbine controller. It reads temperature, pressure, and flow signals from turbine systems. The GE DS200TCQBG2A DS200TCQBG2AEB then sends control outputs to valves and positioners. Therefore, it serves as a high-density analog interface for GE turbine control systems.
