DESCRIPTION

Woodward’s easYgen | exciter-10 (EX-10) module is a power electronics

component designed to provide excitation current to the generator that is

controlled by the Active Voltage Regulator (AVR) feature in the easYgen

3400/3500XT genset controls.

The active voltage regulation concept intends to substitute a traditional

voltage regulation configuration by simplifying the overall topology. The

easYgen internal controller regulates generator output voltage by sending a

pulse width modulation (PWM) signal to the excitation module. The excitation

module controls generator excitation and therefore generator output voltage.

This topology eliminates the redundant voltage and current sensing from a

traditional voltage regulator and also makes a feedforward control architecture

at AVR level simplifying the cascaded PID control topology. For power input,

EX-10 interfaces with any of the following excitation systems: Self/Shunt

Excitation, Auxiliary winding/AREP Excitation and Permanent Magnet (PMG)

Excitation systems to make it a standard yet versatile solution.

Ensuring Reliability and Durability

› Advanced asset protection for engines, generators, and utility grids.

› Robust design with conformal coating and galvanic isolation for harsh environments.

› Multi-mastering, redundant communication, and

redundancy functionality ensure seamless transfer of

primary control to the standby controller in the event of

a failure, enabling uninterrupted operation. This

enhances control system uptime, prevents engine spin

down, and eliminates single points of failure.

Maximize reliability and safeguard your assets with proven quality and advanced redundancy features

designed to eliminate single points of failure, even in extreme environmental conditions.

The innovative control architecture streamlines the management of complex systems,

including utility feeds, tie breakers, and load-sharing networks.

Leveraging globally standardized controls ensures greater flexibility,

accelerates planning and commissioning, and optimizes manufacturing and inventory management

processes.
