GE DS200SHVMG1AFE SCR High Voltage M-Frame Interface Board Product Description
Product Overview
GE DS200SHVMG1AFE is an SCR High Voltage M-Frame Interface Board developed by General Electric for GE Mark V Speedtronic turbine control systems and EX2000 excitation/drive control platforms. As a high-voltage signal interface component in the GE DS200 series, GE DS200SHVMG1AFE provides the electrical connection between the M-Frame SCR power bridge, Power Connect Card (PCCA), and power supply/feedback boards such as DCFB or SDCI modules. The board plays an essential role in transferring voltage feedback, current measurement signals, and SCR bridge operating information between the power section and control electronics.
The GE DS200SHVMG1AFE belongs to the Mark V DS200 family and uses the functional designation SHVM (SCR High Voltage M-Frame Interface Board). Within GE Speedtronic drive architectures, GE DS200SHVMG1AFE acts as an interface and signal conditioning unit that converts high-energy power circuit feedback signals into stable control signals suitable for processing by the drive controller. The board supports attenuation and isolation functions for AC line voltage, motor armature voltage, SCR bridge voltage, and current transformer feedback signals, ensuring accurate monitoring and safe operation of high-power drive systems.
Designed for industrial environments requiring high reliability, GE DS200SHVMG1AFE incorporates jumper-selectable configuration functions, multiple interface connectors, and rugged PCB construction. The board is optimized for GE M-Frame drive applications and provides reliable communication between the SCR bridge assembly and control electronics. By maintaining accurate feedback transmission and stable power interface operation, GE DS200SHVMG1AFE helps improve system response, reduce maintenance downtime, and extend the operational lifecycle of legacy GE turbine and drive control installations.
