Digital excitation control system DECS-100

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 or a personal data assistant running Palm OS 3.3 or newer software. The DECS-100 utilizes microprocssor technology and control algorithms pioneered by Basler Electric over the last 12 years. 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.
