ABB introduces PCD231B101 3BHE025541R0101 excitation controller to improve power system performance
August 27, 2024 – ABB Corporation, a global leader in industrial automation and electrification products, announced the launch of a new generation of PCD231B101 3BHE025541R0101 excitation controllers. This controller integrates advanced digital control technology to provide an efficient and reliable solution for AC motor excitation control.
The PCD231B101 3BHE025541R0101 excitation controller has a modular design for high reliability and performance, while being easy to maintain. It can control the excitation current and voltage, realize the automatic regulation of the excitation system, and provide fault diagnosis and protection functions. The controller is widely used in power systems, industrial fields and transportation fields, such as generators, transformers, motor drive systems, rail transit and Marine equipment excitation control.
ABB’s excitation controller uses a three-phase fully controlled bridge thyristor rectifier circuit to provide DC excitation current to the rotor windings of synchronous motors, and automatically cuts the starting resistance through an electronic switch during asynchronous starting to avoid overvoltage and overcurrent in the field windings, thereby improving device performance and reliability.
In addition, the PCD231B101 3BHE025541R0101 excitation controller also has a variety of communication interfaces, which can be easily integrated into existing industrial control systems to achieve remote monitoring and control. It further enriches ABB’s product line in power and automation, providing customers with more choice and value.
With the growing global demand for efficient and reliable power systems, the ABB PCD231B101 3BHE025541R0101 excitation controller will help improve the stability and efficiency of power systems to meet the needs of modern industrial automation
