DS3800XVIB
VOLTAGE INDICATOR
DS3800XVIB is a Voltage Indicator Board manufactured and designed by General Electric as part of the Mark IV Series used in GE Speedtronic Gas Turbine Control Systems. A Voltage Indicator Board (VIB) is a type of electronic device used to monitor the voltage levels in a circuit. It is typically used in industrial and commercial settings where accurate voltage monitoring is critical to ensure the proper functioning of electrical equipment and prevent damage or downtime. A VIB usually consists of a display panel that shows the voltage level, along with a set of LEDs or other indicators that signal when the voltage falls below or rises above certain preset levels. Some VIBs also include audible alarms or other warning signals to alert operators when the voltage is outside of the desired range.
VIBs can be configured to monitor a wide range of voltage levels, from a few volts to several hundred volts, depending on the specific application. They are often used in conjunction with other monitoring and control devices, such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and motor control centers (MCCs), to provide a complete monitoring and control system for electrical equipment.
FEATURES:
Voltage Monitoring: The primary function of a VIB is to monitor voltage levels in a circuit. The device typically displays the voltage level in real-time, allowing operators to quickly assess the status of the electrical system.
Voltage Range: VIBs can be configured to monitor a specific voltage range, such as 0-100 volts or 0-1000 volts. The range will depend on the specific application and requirements.
LED Indicators: Many VIBs feature LED indicators that light up when the voltage falls outside of the desired range. This can help operators quickly identify issues and take corrective action.
Audible Alarms: Some VIBs include audible alarms that sound when the voltage falls outside of the desired range. This can help alert operators to issues even if they are not actively monitoring the VIB display.
Multiple Inputs: Some VIBs can monitor multiple voltage inputs, allowing operators to monitor different parts of an electrical system from a single device.
Easy Installation: VIBs are typically designed for easy installation, with screw terminals or other connectors for quickly connecting to the circuit.
Compatibility with Control Systems: Many VIBs are designed to be compatible with other control systems, such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) or motor control centers (MCCs).
