Basler Electric DECS-100 Digital Excitation Control System

Basler Electric offers a high powered, low-cost digital excitation control system,

the DECS-100. This environmentally rugged product is ideally suited for

controlling the output of brushless excited synchronous generators up to 5MW.

The DECS-100 has a very impressive 7Adc output from a pulse width modulated

power stage. The DECS-100 is perfect for machines that will be paralleled to other

generators and/or to the utility system. It is ideal for distributed generation,

co-generation and peak shaving applications. 

The DECS-100 is easy to use, and it has communications capability with a PC.

The DECS-100 utilizes microprocessor technology and control algorithms pioneered

by Basler Electric for longer than a decade. It shares many features and functions

of our larger excitation control systems.

The DECS-100 is Basler Electric's fifth generation of microprocessor-based excitation

system.

DESCRIPTION

The DECS-100 is a microprocessor-based regulation system designed to control the

output of a brushless excited synchronous generator. The DECS-100 is perfect for

paralleling applications where generator to generator and/or generator to utility

paralleling occurs with VAR/PF control and Over- and Underexcitation Limiting.

The DECS-100 offers high functionality,communications, and performance at an

extremely affordable price. The DECS-100 is very rugged and offers an extremely

robust mechanical design that is cURus recognized, CE compliant, and DNV certified.
