GE DS2020FECNRP010A

  • Product Name: GE Mark V DS200 Series 10 A Field Exciter Board (FECN)
  • Product Introduction: The DS2020FECNRP010A is a 10-ampere field exciter board (FECN) manufactured by GE for the Mark V DS200 series of drive and excitation systems. It provides field excitation current to synchronous generators and motors, and is classified as a “non-reversing plugging” (NRP) module with a 10 A shunt.

Detailed content

  • Technical Specifications:
    • Family: Mark V DS200
    • Shunt Rating: 10 A
    • Plugging Type: Plugging
    • Reversing Type: Non-reversing
    • Motor Field Rating: Up to 24 A
    • Jumpers: Seven jumpers identified JP1 through JP7
    • Terminal Blocks: Two terminal blocks, each with three terminals
    • Connectors: Multiple pin-type connectors
    • Compatible Power Supply Board: DS200DCFB
    • Drive Core Mounting: Interior/Exterior
    • Reference Manual: GEH-6330
  • Functional Features: Provides field excitation for synchronous machines; non-reversing plugging field power supply; configurable via onboard jumpers; two variants exist (plug-in and non-plug-in), both supported by the GEH-6330 manual
  • Application Scenarios: GE Mark V DS200 drive systems; excitation of synchronous generators and motors in industrial drive applications; compatible with C, G, and M frame types
  • Material Composition: Industrial-grade PCB with conformal coating; copper traces; pin-type and blade connectors
  • Structural Features: Board-mounted module installed on a bracket of another drive component; seven jumper headers; two 3-terminal blocks; multiple pin connectors
  • Working Principle: Delivers controlled DC field excitation current to the synchronous machine’s field winding, regulated by the Mark V control system, with jumper-selected configuration for the specific drive application
  • Installation Requirements:
    • Mount on the designated bracket of the drive assembly
    • All ungrounded power leads must be disconnected before handling — they present a shock hazard
    • Before touching any component, verify that all power sources to the drive are de-energized; the drive may be connected to multiple power sources
    • Configure jumpers JP1–JP7 per the GEH-6330 manual for the specific application
  • Usage Notes:
    • The “NRP” in the catalog number indicates “Non-Reversing Plugging”
    • The “010” indicates a 10 A shunt rating
    • Detailed configuration and troubleshooting information is available in GE manual GEH-6330
