Description
The GE DS200RTBAG2AFB is a relay output terminal board designed for the GE Mark V Speedtronic™turbine control system,widely used in gas and steam turbine applications for power generation and industrial drive service.This module provides 16 high-reliability electromechanical relay outputs that translate digital commands from the Mark V controller into dry contact closures capable of directly switching field devices such as:
Emergency fuel shutoff solenoids
Lube oil pump motor starters
Cooling fan contactors
Alarm horns and beacon lights
Auxiliary generator breakers
Each relay features Form C(SPDT)contacts rated for 5A at 250V AC or 30V DC,enabling universal compatibility with both AC and DC loads.The board mounts vertically in the Mark V I/O rack and connects via a high-density backplane connector to the controller’s digital output drivers(e.g.,from a DTBA board).All relays are optically isolated from logic circuits and include LED status indicators for real-time visual diagnostics.
Designed for mission-critical environments,the DS200RTBAG2AFB includes conformal coating to resist moisture,salt,and airborne contaminants—common in coastal or refinery settings.
Application Scenario
At a cogeneration facility in California,a Mark V-controlled steam turbine tripped unexpectedly due to a failed lube oil pump not starting during coast-down.Investigation revealed welded contacts on an aging third-party relay module that replaced the original GE unit years prior.The plant reinstalled a genuine GE DS200RTBAG2AFB,which restored reliable pump control.During the next scheduled outage,thermal imaging confirmed clean switching with no contact arcing.Over the following 18 months,the system logged zero relay-related faults,ensuring compliance with NERC PRC-005 maintenance standards and avoiding potential penalties.

Technical Principles and Innovative Values
Innovation Point 1:Direct Field Device Interfacing Without Interposing Relays
The 5A rating eliminates the need for external interposing relays in most applications—reducing panel space,cost,and failure points.
Innovation Point 2:Visual Diagnostics Enable Rapid Troubleshooting
Technicians can instantly verify command execution by checking LED status—no multimeter or HMI access required during emergencies.
Innovation Point 3:TMR System Compatibility
In redundant Mark V configurations,multiple DS200RTBAG2AFB boards can be wired in voted or parallel architectures for critical trip functions.
Innovation Point 4:Long Mechanical Life in High-Cycle Applications
Relays rated for>500,000 operations ensure longevity even in frequently cycled auxiliary systems(e.g.,cooling fans).
Application Cases and Industry Value
A petrochemical plant in Texas upgraded its emergency vent system by replacing pneumatic timers with a Mark V-controlled sequence using DS200RTBAG2AFB relays to actuate isolation valves and flare igniters.The solid-state-to-relay interface provided fail-safe timing with full audit trail via HMI.The project achieved SIL 2 compliance under IEC 61511 and reduced proof-test time by 50%—delivering a ROI in under 14 months.

Installation,Maintenance,and Full-Cycle Support
The GE DS200RTBAG2AFB installs into a designated slot in the Mark V I/O chassis.Field wiring connects to removable screw terminals on the front(max 14 AWG).No configuration is required—the board operates passively based on controller output signals.
Best practices:
Torque terminals to 0.6 Nm to prevent loosening from vibration
Use shielded cable for long runs to reduce EMI-induced chatter
Label each relay function on the terminal cover for clarity
Maintenance includes:
Annual inspection for contact pitting or carbon buildup
Functional test:simulate command→verify contact closure with continuity check
Cleaning dust from LED windows and relay vents
We supply every DS200RTBAG2AFB with:
Relay cycle test report(10,000 operations at rated load)
Contact resistance<50 mΩverification
Conformal coating integrity check
12-month warranty
Our technical team provides support for integration into TMR logic,load compatibility analysis,and migration planning to Mark VIe.
