Main Features

Low harmonic performance:The PCD231B101 provides low harmonic performance without any additional filtering equipment,which makes the grid-side harmonics comply with all relevant standards.Therefore,it eliminates the need for harmonic analysis or installation of network filters and other equipment for reducing harmonics.

Active Front End(AFE):The PCD231B101 has an active front end that enables regenerative braking function,allowing all current to flow in motor mode and generation mode.This regenerative braking function can save a lot of energy because it is able to feed energy back to the power supply network.It is particularly suitable for applications that require frequent starting and stopping,such as downhill conveyor belts or natural gas pipeline booster pumps,enabling these applications to brake continuously with high energy efficiency.At the same time,AFE can also provide reactive power(VAR)compensation function,which is essential for the stable operation of the power system.

Excitation control:The PCD231B101 module is specially designed for the control of electromagnetic excitation equipment to ensure that the excitation current and voltage of the generator are maintained at a suitable level.It usually has multiple control channels and can be used to monitor and control multiple power generators at the same time.

Communication interface:PCD231B101 supports data exchange and communication with other devices,and usually supports communication interfaces such as Modbus,Profibus,CAN,etc.,so as to exchange data and communicate with other devices,control systems or monitoring systems.

System protection:Provide monitoring and protection functions for the power system to deal with abnormal situations,thereby protecting the normal operation of the generator.

Voltage regulation:Ensure that the voltage output by the generator meets the set standards to meet the needs of the power system.

Excitation regulation:Maintain the stability of the power system by controlling the excitation current of the generator.
