GE DS200LDCCH1AKA – LDCC Drive Control Board for GE Industrial Drives
The GE DS200LDCCH1AKA is an LDCC (drive control) board used inside GE drive and exciter systems—commonly seen across DC2000/AC2000 drives and, in many cases, EX2000 exciters. From my experience, this is the microprocessor-based heart of the cabinet that coordinates internal I/O, interlocks, and the drive’s internal LAN. When aging starts to show, you’ll typically see sporadic comms alarms, watchdog resets, or status updates that lag under heat or vibration. One thing I appreciate is the service-friendly connector layout; it seems to be built for a clean, like-for-like swap during a planned stop so you can keep downtime tight and predictable.
Company’s Order Placement Process and Guarantees
- Warranty period: 365 days
- Delivery time: 1 week for in-stock; no more than one month at the latest
- Payment method: 50% advance payment; full payment for delivery
- Express delivery methods: FedEx / UPS / DHL
- Compatibility check: Share the drive nameplate and a photo of the LDCC label and revision—this typically locks the correct version quickly.
Key Features
- Central drive controller – Coordinates regulation, protection logic, and internal I/O for GE DC/AC drive platforms.
- Internal drive LAN gateway – Interfaces with the cabinet’s internal bus (DriveLAN/ARCNET‑style depending on revision) for deterministic updates.
- Drop‑in spare – Designed as a like‑for‑like replacement to minimize rewiring and parameter disturbance in most cases.
- Diagnostics indicators – On‑board LEDs and watchdog supervision help maintenance pinpoint issues faster.
- Service‑friendly mechanics – Keyed connectors and clear standoff points simplify swaps during short outages.
- Lifecycle extension – A practical path to stabilize legacy GE cabinets without committing to a full retrofit project.
Technical Specifications
| Brand / Model | GE DS200LDCCH1AKA (LDCC Control Board) |
| HS Code | 8538.90 (Parts suitable for electrical control apparatus) |
| Power Requirements | Powered from host drive LV rails; typically uses +5 V and ±15 V rails provided by the cabinet |
| Operating Temperature | 0 to +55 °C typical when installed in a ventilated, non‑condensing enclosure |
| Signal Input/Output Types | Internal control/status lines via edge/backplane connectors; supervises digital/analog I/O through companion boards |
| Communication Interfaces | Internal drive LAN (DLAN+/ARCNET‑style depending on system); external fieldbus handled by separate GE/third‑party adapters |
| Installation Method | Plug‑in board, secured with standoffs/screws; keyed connectors to prevent mis‑seating |
Application Fields
Used widely in GE DC and AC drive cabinets across metals processing, paper & converting, mining conveyors, oil & gas, cranes/hoists, and large HVAC/process fans. A typical scenario is a drive that passes cold start yet throws “communication fault” or random watchdog resets after heat soak—swapping DS200LDCCH1AKA generally stabilizes the internal backbone without changing PLC logic or motor wiring.
Advantages & Value for Procurement
- Reliability – Restores deterministic control and internal communications, cutting nuisance trips and unplanned stops.
- Compatibility – Intended for GE DC2000/AC2000/related systems; we validate part number, revision letters, and host type before shipment.
- Cost savings – Board‑level maintenance is typically far cheaper than cabinet replacement or a full retrofit.
- Predictable downtime – Drop‑in mechanics keep the changeout inside a tight maintenance window.
- Technical support – Guidance on parameter backups, firmware/EPROM handling, and post‑swap checks to keep risk low.
Installation & Maintenance
- Cabinet environment – Clean, dry, ventilated enclosure. Keep ambient 0…55 °C; avoid condensation and conductive dust.
- Safety & isolation – Lockout/tagout, wait for DC bus discharge, and verify zero energy before handling.
- ESD precautions – Use a wrist strap and handle by PCB edges; avoid touching component pins.
- Firmware & EEPROMs – Some systems require transferring firmware chips from the old board; we can confirm based on your revision.
- Connections – Fully seat edge/backplane connectors; check PE bonding and cable strain relief.
- Commissioning checks – Run interlock logic tests and a controlled ramp; monitor comms/alarm logs during trial operation.
- Routine care – Annual dust cleaning, connector re‑seating, and event‑log review; align firmware with OEM recommendations.
Quality & Certifications
- Used within CE‑conformant drive assemblies; the board forms part of the certified system.
- UL recognition typically applies at the complete drive level.
- RoHS‑aligned materials/processes for most modern spare parts.
- Manufactured under ISO 9001 quality systems at the OEM level.
- Warranty: 12 months (365 days) against functional defects under normal operation.
A steel mill maintenance lead told us a straight LDCC swap cleared a stubborn comms alarm that only appeared after weekend heat soak. If you can share the cabinet nameplate and a clear photo of your DS200LDCCH1AKA label (including the AKA suffix), we’ll confirm compatibility, reserve stock, and schedule shipment to match your maintenance window.
