Basler Electric SMC-150 Synchronous Motor Controller

Overview

The SMC-150 Synchronous Motor Controller is a prepackaged solution for

applications requiring a single DECS-150 Digital Excitation Control System.

The system is preconfigured to adapt to a wide variety of installations

including existing or new cubicles. With the DECS-150’s enhanced capabilities,

precise motor control can be obtained. The SMC-150 is designed, built, and

completely tested in one location to optimize performance.

Benefits

• Complete monitoring of a synchronous motor and streamlined

control offer increased reliability.

• Various excitation limiters keep the system within the prescribed

parameters and prevent tripping.

• The DECS-150. used on the SMC-150. is programmed using

BESTlogic™Plus within BESTCOMSPlus® software. With its intuitive

interface, BESTlogicPlus provides the flexibility to create custom

logic schemes to meet specific requirements.

• Real-time monitoring and event recording capture occurrences

within the system for live data analysis.

• Prewired chassis for easy installation into new or existing enclosures.

• Current transformer (CT) shorting provision for added safety.

• Our prewired solutions minimize the need for system-level design

time.

• The Offline Simulator, provided in BESTlogicPlus, helps identify and

troubleshoot the logic without the physical hardware.

• Design work done by the experts in excitation technology.
