Description
The GE General Electric DS200CDBAG1B / DS200CDBAG1BBB is a CDBA Contactor Driver Board designed for GE Mark V control and AC2000/DC2000 drive applications. The board provides the circuitry required to control the opening and closing of a high-speed contactor and interfaces with the associated drive power-supply and control circuitry. The G1B revision includes two configurable jumpers, three test points, a fuse, wiring connectors, an LED indicator, and an adjustable contactor-drive current potentiometer. GE documentation identifies the functional description as Contactor Driver Board and the functional acronym as CDBA.
