GE TYPE SCT-PPT
VOLTAGE REGULATOR RETROFIT
(Generator
Control Panel for GE Frame 7 Gas Turbine)
Contributions
directly to the manufacturer, including  's
expertise, field development and product support, have lead to our newest
Voltage Regulator Retrofit offering;
Basler Type
DECS-300 Digital Voltage Regulator System as a direct replacement for the
GE Type SCT-PPT Voltage Regulators.
-
The existing
Power Magnetics of the Compound Source Excitation System remain,
including the Saturable Current Transformers (SCT), the Power
Potential Transformer (PPT), the Linear Reactors and the Power Diode
Bridge(s).
-
The new
Voltage Regulator can be installed into the existing Generator Control
Panel and Generator Auxiliary Compartment (GAC), or a new Generator
Control Panel can be provided.
