Product Features & Benefits

• A wide variety of redundancy options increases system reliability.

• An available suite of limiters coordinates with protective functions to help

maintain safe operating parameters and avoid system downtime.

• Various protection functions are integrated into the controller to avoid system

damage.

• Dual gain settings can maximize excitation system performance based on load

conditions.

• Improve system reliability and stability by coordinating dual settings groups for

limiters and protection to match generation system conditions.

• A soft start feature maintains generator voltage control during system startup

to prevent undesired overshoots.

• Time synchronizing provisions facilitate event analysis with a common chronological

reference to aid in coordination efforts when comparing oscillography files from other

devices.

• Real-time monitoring and built-in test provisions simplify system testing and reduce

commissioning time.

• Entering settings with confidence is easy with BESTCOMS™Pro. Software provides

intuitive settings with graphs, built-in error checking, and summary screens.

• Power Drawers allow for simple online and offline maintenance of complete rectifier

bridges that can reduce or eliminate exciter down time.

• Sequence of Events and Oscillography Recording provisions collect valuable system

data triggered by disturbances for event analysis.

• Avoid costly generator damage and improve overall system stability with Basler

Electric’s integrated Power System Stabilizer (optional) that utilizes the “integral of

accelerating power” to safely dampen local mode, inter-area and inter-unit power

oscillations.

• Basler’s in-house engineering, fabrication, manufacturing, and test capabilities

provide maximum control of processes and product design, resulting in the highest

quality and maximum reliability while offering shorter lead times.

• Optional supervisory channel increases system security by avoiding inadvertent

tripping with two-out-of-three controller comparison technique.

Ethernet communication reduces the amount of hardwiring needed for alarm and

status signals while increasing

the amount of information available. This information may be used to interface

with external distributed control

systems such as SCADA, etc.
