GE DS3800HXTA Series Six Local I/O Transmitter

Part Number DS3800HXTA Manufacturer General Electric Country of Manufacture As Per GE Manufacturing Policy Series Mark VI/VIe Function Module Availability In StockDS3800HXTA is a Series Six Local I/O Transmitter manufactured and designed by General Electric as part of the Mark IV Series used in GE Speedtronic Gas Turbine Control Systems. The Series Six Local I/O Transmitter is a device designed for local input and output operations in various industrial applications. 

It's typically used in process control systems to gather data from sensors and other field devices and send that data to a central control system for monitoring and analysis. Similarly, it can also receive commands or setpoints from the control system and send them to actuators or other control elements in the field. This transmitter is a crucial component in industrial automation, allowing the seamless exchange of information between the physical processes happening in the field and the digital control systems that manage and regulate those processes. 

 FEATURES: High Precision Measurement: The Series Six Local I/O Transmitter is designed to provide accurate and high-precision measurements of various process variables such as temperature, pressure, flow rate, level, and more. Multiple Input Channels: It might include multiple input channels, allowing it to handle data from several sensors simultaneously. This is particularly useful for applications where multiple variables need to be monitored. 

 Analog and Digital Inputs: The transmitter could support both analog and digital input signals, making it compatible with a wide range of sensors and devices. Signal Conditioning: The transmitter could include signal conditioning capabilities to ensure that the input signals are accurate and consistent, even in noisy environments. Integration with Control Systems: The transmitter could seamlessly integrate with distributed control systems (DCS) or programmable logic controllers (PLC), enabling efficient process control and automation.

ABOUT THE DS3800HXTA

The DS3800HXTA is a PCB designed to function as a Series 6 transmitter within the Speedtronic (Mark IV) series. The Mark IV series, which was designed for gas/steam turbine control, continues to be a useful system despite obsolescence, due to well designed integrated chipsets with built-in redundancies that automatically redistribute the load of the system if one board experiences an issue. In this way uptime of the entire system is maximized. The Mark IV can be used for the sequencing of turbines and its auxiliaries as well as for cool down and start-up procedures.

The DS3800HXTA is manufactured with the following specs:

It is marked for alignment along one edge

It is factory-drilled for mounting options in all four corners.

It has two clips attached to two corners of the board

It has a series of spare PTH (plated through holes) for the addition of hardware.

It is built with five resistor network arrays. Resistor networks may be for analog to digital conversion or may be used for voltage division.

It has one test point labeled "DCOM." This is positioned toward the bottom right half of the board.

It has two red LEDs. These are marked "parity okay" and "chain okay."

It has one female connector and one male connector, positioned on opposite sides of the board.

It has 40 integrated circuits.
