Technical Specifications Part Number F31X174RCCADG1 Alternate Part Number 531X174RCCA Type Ribbon Connector Board Manufacturer General Electric Weight 0.22 lbs Connector Type 42-pin right-angle (male) connector Backplane 32 flat metal tabs Mounting Factory drilled for mounting Information About F31X174RCCADG1 The F31X174RCCADG1 is a ribbon connector board designed and manufactured by General Electric, serving as a critical component within various industrial electronic systems. This board, also identified by its alternate part number 531X174RCCA, is engineered to facilitate reliable communication and signal transmission between a ribbon cable and a larger control system. Despite being discontinued by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), the F31X174RCCADG1 remains available as a new surplus or refurbished unit, commonly found within specialized inventory, such as that of AX Control. Weighing approximately 0.22 lbs, the F31X174RCCADG1 is a compact and lightweight printed circuit board (PCB), making it suitable for applications where space and weight constraints are considerations. The board鈥檚 small size does not compromise its functionality; it is designed with a precise layout to ensure efficient and reliable signal transmission. The F31X174RCCADG1 features a 42-pin right-angle (male) connector, which is the primary interface for connecting a ribbon cable to the board. This connector is designed to fit securely with the ribbon cable, ensuring stable and uninterrupted communication.

To enhance the reliability of the connection, the board includes a plastic clip positioned near the connector. This clip provides additional security by holding the ribbon cable firmly in place, preventing disconnections or loosening that could disrupt the signal flow. On one edge of the board, there is a conductive backplane consisting of 32 flat metal tabs. These tabs are integral to the board's ability to communicate with the larger system, serving as the interface between the PCB and the overall electronic architecture. The backplane is designed for optimal conductivity, ensuring that signals are transmitted with minimal loss or interference. This feature is particularly important in industrial environments where precision and reliability are paramount. The F31X174RCCADG1 is also designed with practical considerations for installation and mounting. The board is factory drilled with mounting holes, allowing for easy and secure installation within a system. This design feature ensures that the board can be firmly attached to the desired location, reducing the risk of movement or vibration that could affect its performance. The ability to securely mount the board is critical in industrial applications, where stability and durability are essential for maintaining system integrity over time. The simplicity of the F31X174RCCADG1鈥檚 design is one of its strengths. Aside from the essential components鈥攕uch as the 42-pin connector, plastic clip, and 32-tab backplane鈥攖he board is largely unpopulated, with the remaining space dedicated to the electrical pathways that facilitate signal transmission. These pathways are carefully designed to optimize the flow of signals between the backplane and the ribbon connector, ensuring that data is transmitted accurately and efficiently. The absence of unnecessary components reduces potential points of failure, enhancing the overall reliability of the board. Despite being discontinued by the OEM, the F31X174RCCADG1 continues to be a valuable component in many industrial systems. Its availability as a new surplus or refurbished unit ensures that engineers and technicians can maintain and repair existing systems without needing to redesign or replace entire sections of their electronic infrastructure. The ongoing availability of this board reflects its durability and continued relevance in industrial applications, where long-term reliability and compatibility with existing systems are critical considerations. In summary, the General Electric F31X174RCCADG1 ribbon connector board is a specialized PCB designed to provide reliable signal transmission between a ribbon cable and a larger electronic system. Its 42-pin right-angle connector, 32-tab backplane, and factory-drilled mounting holes make it a robust and dependable choice for industrial applications. The board鈥檚 compact design and practical features ensure that it remains a valuable component, even as it is no longer manufactured by the OEM. Whether used in new installations or as a replacement in existing systems, the F31X174RCCADG1 continues to deliver the reliable performance that is essential in demanding industrial environments.
