GE DS3800HXCA SERIES 6 MASTER CARD

Part Number DS3800HXCA Manufacturer General Electric Country of Manufacture As Per GE Manufacturing Policy Series Mark VI/VIe Function Module Availability In StockDS3800HXCA is an Expansion Master Card manufactured and designed by General Electric as part of the Mark IV Series used in GE Speedtronic Gas Turbine Control Systems. Expansion Master Card is used to expand the system's capabilities or connect with additional equipment.

These cards are often found in control systems for industrial turbines, power plants, or other complex machinery. Expansion Master Cards typically serve the following purposes: Monitoring and Data Acquisition: These cards often have sensors and interfaces to monitor critical parameters such as temperature, pressure, speed, and vibration in real-time. They collect data from these sensors and send it to the control system for analysis. Control and Regulation: They can also be involved in regulating the operation of the turbine. This could include adjusting fuel flow, controlling the opening and closing of turbine valves, and managing power output.

Safety and Emergency Shutdown: These cards may play a role in safety systems, ensuring that the turbine shuts down safely in the event of abnormal conditions or emergencies, such as Overspeed or high temperature. Communication: Many Master Expansion Cards provide communication interfaces to send data to a central control system or receive commands for remote monitoring and control. Redundancy and Reliability: In critical applications like turbine control, redundancy is often crucial for reliability.

These cards may be part of redundant systems to ensure continuous operation and safety. Integration: They need to be integrated with the overall control and monitoring system of the turbine, often using industry-standard communication protocols and interfaces.
