SGC-250 Synchronous Generator Controller

Overview
The SGC-250 Synchronous Generator Controller is a prepackaged solution
for applications that require single or dual DECS-250 Digital Excitation Control
Systems. With the DECS-250’s enhanced capabilities, precise generator voltage
control can be obtained. An optional integrated BE1-11g Generator Protection
System provides generator current differential protection, monitoring, and
metering with multiple protection schemes to assist with generator protection.

Features Benefits
• 15-amp pulse-width-modulated (PWM) insulated-gate bipolar transistor • The DECS-250 and optional BE1-11g used on the SGC-250 are
(IGBT) power stage programmed using BESTlogic™Plus within BESTCOMSPlus
• Single and dual redundant DECS-250 option software. With its intuitive interface, BESTlogicPlus provides
the flexibility to create custom logic schemes to meet specific
• Dual control power provisions requirements.
• BESTCOMSPlus® PC software • An automatic tuning feature is integrated into the DECS-250
• Preprogrammed logic to reduce commissioning time and provide excellent system
performance.
• Autotracking between modes of operation
• Real time monitoring and event recording capture occurrences
• Autotracking between DECS-250 units for dual controller systems within the system for live data analysis.
• Real time monitoring • Prewired for easy installation into new or existing enclosures.
• Sequence of events recording • Dual control power provides redundancy to prevent undesired
• Automatic tuning shutdown.
