Our excitation devices are equipped with a thyristor controller for driving external thyristor-based power circuits.
This thyristor controller for external power circuits can be integrated within the device or be connected via a bus, in order to, for example, physically separate the control and power subsystems.
The XD2S family is a system of compact devices for synchronous machine excitation with two basic configurations. The devices can be either integrated with the power circuit or control/drive an external circuit for excitation and monitoring of machines in the range of hundreds of megawatts, and can also be used for smaller units of a megawatt or less.
