Product Overview

The GE DS200RTBAG2AHC is a key component in the relay terminal board of the General Electric RTBA series. As an optional expansion board for industrial drives and excitation cabinets, the DS200RTBAG2AHC offers ten configurable relays to enhance control logic, interface management, and output capabilities in complex automation systems.

As a G2 group model, this board is designed with a 24V DC coil voltage. This feature makes it perfectly suitable for scenarios in modern industrial environments dominated by low-voltage DC control systems - such as systems applying PLCS and DCS, enabling direct integration and simplifying the overall system architecture.

Features

The 24V DC coil operates at low voltage to ensure compatibility with modern control systems, enhance the safety of operators, and can be directly connected to PLCS, sensors and other low-voltage equipment.

The high configuration flexibility is reflected in the fact that the jumpers (JP1-JP15) support the selection of internal (from LTB) or external power supply for each relay coil, enabling customized control strategies.

The Relay Terminal Board has a robust and reliable design. All relay I/ OS are equipped with MOV surge protectors, effectively resisting voltage spikes and transient interference, ensuring long-term stable operation in harsh industrial environments.

The DS200RTBAG2AHC adopts a pluggable relay design and is equipped with an independent LED status indicator light, enabling rapid fault detection. The relay can be replaced separately without disassembling the entire circuit board, minimizing downtime to the greatest extent.

The mature system compatibility is specifically designed for seamless integration of various GE industrial drives and control systems, ensuring performance and reliability.

Application range

The 24V DC working voltage of DS200RTBAG2AHC makes it perfectly suitable for various modern industrial application scenarios

As an output expansion module for programmable logic controllers (PLCS) and distributed control systems (DCS), the PLC and DCS interface expansion can convert a single control signal into multiple isolated output instructions to drive various field devices.

Integrated into modern motor drive systems such as GE Mark V and Mark VI, it provides auxiliary control signals for cooling fans and pumps, and feeds back the operating status (operation/ready/fault) to the human-machine interface and monitoring system.

The safety interlock circuit realizes the interlock control among multiple conveyors, where the start and stop status of one conveyor depends on the operating status of the other. Realize key safety functions in automated machinery and conveying systems, such as access control interlocks, pressure/temperature monitoring and emergency stop circuits.

The DS200RTBAG2AHC can be directly integrated into modern manufacturing standard 24V DC control systems without the need for additional voltage conversion modules.

Provide electrical isolation between sensitive control electronic devices (such as PLC output terminals) and field equipment to protect the controller from electrical noise and voltage transients.
