Basler BE2000E Digital Excitation Voltage Regulator

Basler BE2000E Digital Excitation Voltage Regulator

Product basic positioning

BE2000E is an industrial grade digital AVR from Basler, designed specifically for brushless synchronous generators with single-phase PMG permanent magnet generators. It serves as a core replacement for Marathon's old DVR2000E/DVR2000E voltage regulating devices and has strong environmental tolerance. It is suitable for diesel/gas small synchronous generator sets and supports parallel operation of single and multiple generators.

Core Four Control Modes

The whole machine supports four switchable operating modes, meeting the needs of single machine and grid connected parallel scenarios:

AVR automatic voltage regulation (main mode): stabilizes the output voltage of the generator, supports 1/3 phase voltage sampling, has soft start, V/Hz low-frequency compensation, and overexcitation limitation;

FCR manual excitation current regulation: directly control the rotor excitation current, with a slope adjustable in 0.01 steps;

Var constant regulation: constant reactive power output, regulation range -100%~+100, step size 0.1%;

Power factor PF constant adjustment: constant power factor, adjustment range of 0.6 lead to 0.6 lag, accuracy of 0.001.
