GE DS200FCSAG2A Current Sensing Feedback Board

The GE DS200FCSAG2A, also cataloged as the DS200FCSAG2A Current Sensing Feedback Board, operates as a dedicated hardware component for current sensing, feedback acquisition, and power conversion monitoring within the GE LS2100 static starter control system. The board interfaces with current sensing devices and control power circuits to provide feedback data required for drive system regulation and starter cabinet operation.

Hardware Specifications

Power Conversion Feedback and Current Monitoring

The DS200FCSAG2A performs current feedback acquisition within the LS2100 static starter architecture. Installed inside the power conversion cabinet, the board interfaces with current sensing hardware and transfers feedback information required by the starter control system.

The board operates with the associated Control Power Supply (CPS), which provides regulated output voltages including 24 V, 15 V, 12 V, and 5 V to supporting circuitry. Current feedback information collected by the FCSA board assists in monitoring and regulating power conversion functions associated with gas turbine generator prime mover applications.

Communication with sensing circuitry is accomplished through dedicated interfaces including the LEMPS and CSPL connectors. The LEMPS connector is also utilized during voltage verification procedures to isolate auxiliary circuit influences when performing diagnostic checks.

Firmware Compatibility and System Integration

Within the LS2100 platform, the DS200FCSAG2A functions alongside multiple drive control assemblies installed in the static starter cabinet. The board is identified in GE documentation under the FCSA designation and serves as a dedicated sensing interface rather than a standalone control processor.

Correct installation requires compatibility with the designated LS2100 hardware environment and associated current sensing components. Verification of CPS-generated supply voltages at the specified test points is commonly performed during maintenance and commissioning procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the primary purpose of the DS200FCSAG2A board?
A: The board functions as a Current Sensing Feedback Board that acquires and processes current feedback signals within the LS2100 static starter system.

Q: What connectors are installed on the board?
