Specific electrical and mechanical ratings depend on the exact configuration and suffix of the part; the original datasheet should be consulted for the definitive specification.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
Inspect terminals and connectors for corrosion or looseness, and confirm the module seats correctly in its carrier. Always de-energise the circuit and follow lock-out/tag-out before handling; refer to the official instruction bulletin for service procedures.
Sourcing & Procurement
When sourcing the DS200FSAAG1ABA, distinguish three supply tiers: (1) genuine GE stock from an authorised distributor; (2) compatible equivalents or surplus/NOS (new-old-stock) from third parties; (3) alternative parts offering equivalent function. Genuine supply carries the full warranty and traceability; compatible or alternative items may be cheaper but should be validated for form, fit, firmware and certification before use in a live system. PLCXpert publishes this page as an independent reference and does not sell the part — verify every claim with the manufacturer or your distributor.
Confirm mechanical and electrical compatibility with your GE product portfolio installation and the intended function. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.

DS200FSAAG1ABA Technical Specifications Original Manufacturer GE General Electric Original Product Series Mark V Alphanumeric Part Number DS200FSAAG1ABA Functional Description Field Supply Amplifier Functional Acronym FSAA PCB Coating Style Normal Coating 1st Functional Revision A 2nd Functional Revision B Artwork Revision A About the DS200FSAAG1ABA This DS200FSAAG1ABA Field Supply Gate Amplifier Board was manufactured for the Mark V Series of major automated drives retailer General Electric. The Mark V Series that this DS200FSAAG1ABA PCB is considered a member of is one of the more recent product line developed using General Electric's Speedtronic technology, and is centered around the production of printed circuit boards and other component products crucial for the functioning of turbine control systems specifically.
This DS200FSAAG1ABA General Electric printed circuit board is not actually the original Field Supply Gate Amplifier Board that was designed and manufactured for the Mark V Series; that would be the DS200FSAAG1 printed circuit board missing this specific product's three signficant product revisions.
Hardware Tips and Specifications The internal and external assembly of this DS200FSAAG1ABA Field Supply Gate Amplifier Board is unique due to its unique functionality within the greater Mark V Series. The GE Field Supply Amplifier Board DS200FSAAG1ABA features:
5 jumpers one 10-pin connector two fuses multiple test points The GE Field Supply Amplifier Board DS200FSAAG1ABA is subject to damage from static electricity that can build up on your body and on the board. There are several guidelines to follow once you receive the replacement board and during the replacement procedure, as revealed in original General Electric instructional manuals. The DS200FSAAG1ABA board is shipped in a sealed bag made of a plastic that is treated to prevent the flow of static through the bag and onto the board; the best practice is to keep the board in the sealed bag until you are ready to install it.
During installation of this DS200FSAAG1ABA PCB, you must wear a wrist strap because it drains off any static that accumulates on the board or on your body while you wear it. When the strap is attached to an unpainted metal surface, the static seeks ground as provided by the metal, so clip the strap to a metal support on a workbench or other structure.
Another installation consideration is to refrain from walking around with the board because walking causes static to build up, especially in cool and dry conditions.

Functional Description DS200FSAAG1ABA is a Field Supply Gate Amplifier Board developed by General Electric. It is a part of Drive Control series. The board features phase control to regulate four silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs). These SCRs enable the plugging operation, a characteristic feature of the model. Jumpers on the model facilitate the provision of an NRX function in the event of excessive field issues encountered during the non-reversing plugging (NRP) application.
Features Compatibility: The model is versatile, capable of operating in both NRP and NRX functions, providing flexibility in various operational scenarios.
Fuse Protection: Equipped with two Limitron fast-acting fuses, each with a KTK symbol and rated at 30 amps, the model safeguards fields up to 24 A and the alternating current (AC) metal-oxide varistor (MOV). For fields exceeding 24 A, larger external fuses are required to feed the field.
Terminal Connector: The model features a 10-pin terminal connector labeled FPL, providing a convenient interface for connectivity within the drive system.
Functionality: Offers control of silicon-controlled rectifiers P2 and N2, enabling them to turn on independently when their anode voltage is positive. The model is specifically designed to function only in NRX mode, lacking the capability to operate in NRP mode like its counterpart.
Attributes Field Supply Regulation: As a Field Supply Gate Amplifier Board, the component is tasked with regulating field supplies within drive systems, ensuring consistent and reliable operation of associated machinery and equipment.
Amplification Capabilities: Leveraging advanced amplification technologies, the board boosts control signals to effectively manage field supply voltages, enabling precise control and modulation as per system requirements.
Compatibility: Designed with versatility in mind, the card is compatible with a wide range of drive systems, offering seamless integration and interoperability across diverse industrial applications.
Robust Construction: Engineered with high-quality materials and built to stringent quality standards, it boasts robust construction, ensuring durability and reliability in demanding industrial environments.
