Overview

The CBS 212A provides excitation support to the generator during motor start

scenarios and faults on the generator lines. This device utilizes power current

transformers located in the generator’s output leads that provides excitation

current to the field and supplies boost to the system for motor starting and

fault clearing.

Features

• Instantaneous response to short circuits

• Up to 20 A field boost power for 10 seconds

• Activated when generator voltage drops too low to maintain field current

• For 50 or 60 Hertz brushless generators

• Covers a wide range of generator applications

• Adjustable forcing voltage limit

Benefits

• Instantaneous response by applying required excitation support,

maintaining the overall stability of the power system.

• Eliminates the need for expensive PMG and alternate systems that

provide fault-clearing or motor-starting current.

• Easy to install and configure, reducing commissioning time.
