GE DS200LDCCH1ANA – Drive Control / LAN Communication Board for GE Industrial Drives and Exciters

• DLAN+ drive network interface – Provides the proprietary GE drive network connection typically used in Innovation Series and legacy DC/AC/EX platforms.

• Backplane control integration – Routes critical control, status, and reference signals through the drive rack for deterministic operation.

• Revision-matched design (ANA) – The “ANA” revision combination helps ensure drop-in compatibility in many installed systems.

• Onboard diagnostics – Status LEDs and self-check routines simplify troubleshooting during commissioning or swap-outs.

• Ruggedized for cabinet environments – Designed for industrial temperature ranges and continuous-duty operation inside drive enclosures.

• Service-friendly layout – Clearly labeled connectors and mounting points reduce downtime during replacement.

You’ll typically find DS200LDCCH1ANA boards in heavy-duty process lines where GE drives are the backbone: steel and metals rolling, paper and pulp sections, mining conveyors, power plant auxiliaries (fans, pumps), and test stands. One thing I appreciate is how this board helps keep legacy GE drives networked to higher-level controls without forcing a full system retrofit. In many cases, a like-for-like swap gets a line back up in hours rather than days.

• Drop-in compatibility – Matching the “ANA” revision helps avoid re-engineering and keeps commissioning time low.

• Reliability under load – Built for continuous industrial duty with stable communication on DLAN+ networks.

• Cost containment – Extends the life of existing GE drive assets; often avoids a multi-vendor migration project.

• Service and spares strategy – We can supply tested boards, and in many cases provide logs or functional test reports for QA traceability.

• Compatibility – Works with commonly paired GE control boards used in Innovation Series racks, reducing integration risk.

• Cabinet environment – Install in a clean, ventilated drive cabinet. Maintain ambient within 0–60°C and avoid condensation.

• ESD handling – Use grounding straps, handle by edges, and keep the board in antistatic packaging until installation.

• Mounting – Power down, discharge stored energy, then seat the board evenly in the backplane connectors; secure standoffs.

• Wiring – Route network cabling (DLAN+) away from high-noise power conductors. Check connector keys and polarization.

• Jumpers/firmware – Match jumper settings and firmware revisions to the removed unit where applicable; document any changes.

• Routine care – Periodic dust removal with dry, oil-free air; visual checks for connector wear. Firmware updates only when required by GE guidance.

• Troubleshooting – Utilize onboard status LEDs and the drive’s diagnostic menus. If faults persist, a loopback or network segment test often narrows the issue quickly.

• Manufactured to GE quality standards; facilities typically certified to ISO 9001

• UL/CE conformity is system-dependent; the board is intended for use within certified GE drive systems

• RoHS status varies by vintage and revision; many legacy units pre-date full RoHS

• Warranty: 365 days from delivery

For planning spares, customers often pair the DS200LDCCH1ANA with GE Innovation Series control and I/O boards such as DS200SDCCG1A (main drive control) and related interface boards used in DC2000/AC2000/EX2000 cabinets. Network accessories (approved DLAN+ cabling and connectors) should match the existing installation to maintain signal integrity.
