Benefits

• The DECS-250 and a motor protection device working together

results in more efficient control of the machine to help avoid

machine downtime

• Maintains constant power factor or vars for varying motor loads

• Improves the plant power factor which could eliminate lower

power factor penalties

• Eliminates synchronous motor pullout issues due to insufficient

excitation

• Excitation field forcing maintains power factor or var control on

the motor during momentary voltage dips of the station power

source

• Prevents rotor overheating and motor pullout with field

overcurrent and underexcitation limiters

• Improves the life expectancy of brushless exciter diodes by

preventing motor pullout

• Brushless exciter diode monitor detects open/shorted diodes that

can cause motor vibration

• Real-time monitoring and event recording capture occurrences

within the system for live data analysis

• Loss of voltage sensing detection enables a transfer to manual

mode to maintain motor operation

• Both the DECS-250 and the BE1-11m option are programmed

using BESTCOMSPlus® software. Utilizing the same program

for both devices provides easy logic setup and communication

between the DECS-250 and the BE1-11m.

• Dual DECS-250 controller option ensures continued operation in

the event of a failure

• Prewired for easy installation into new or existing enclosures

• Current transformer (CT) shorting provision for added safety
