Microprocessor Controlled Alarm System
The DCA-150SSKII generator is equipped with various
alarms and LED status indicators. These alarms and status
indicators are provided to add safety to the generator when
operating under normal conditions. The DCA-150SSKII
generator is designed to shutdown in the event of low oil,
high coolant temperature, low battery and other operation
conditions that may cause severe damage to the generator.
Open Delta Excitation System
The DCA-150SSKII generator is equipped with the state of
the art "
Open-Delta
" excitation system. The open delta
system consist of an electrically independent winding wound
among stationary windings of the AC output section.
There are four leads: A, B, C and D. During light loads, the
power to the
Automatic Voltage Regulator
(AVR) is supplied
from the leads parallel connections of B&C. When loads
increase, the AVR switches and accepts power from leads
A&D. The output of leads A&D increase proportionally with
load. This of adding the voltages to each phase provides
better voltage response during heavy loads.
The connections of the AVR to the AC output windings are
for sensing only. No power is required from these windings.
The open-delta design provides virtually unlimited excitation
current, offering maximum motor starting capabilities. The
excitation does not have a "
fixed ceiling
" and responds
according the demands of the required load.
