DECS-250N
Description
Advanced digital excitation with power system stabilizer (PSS).
Did you know
- The Basler Electric DECS-250N was first printed in October 2012, building upon Basler Electric's long history in excitation control systems dating back to 1965.
- The DECS-250N is a high-performance digital excitation control system within Basler Electric's DECS range, offering all the functionality of the DECS-250 but with enhanced negative forcing capabilities. It provides a higher continuous excitation current compared to the DECS-150, but less than the DECS-250E, DECS-450, or DECS-2100.
- The DECS-250N is chosen for its precise voltage, var, and power factor regulation, coupled with its negative field-forcing capabilities and robust 20-amp rectifier bridge, which provide exceptional system response and transient performance. Its advanced microprocessor-based design, along with the intuitive BESTCOMSPlus® software, simplifies setup and offers extensive configurability and protection features for both synchronous generators and motors.
| Model | Continuous Excitation Current | Power Stage Type | Negative Forcing |
|---|---|---|---|
| DECS-250N | 20 Adc | Six-thyristor | Yes |
| DECS-250 | 15 Adc | Pulse Width Modulated | No |
