Detailed Description

Scope of application and working conditions: the operating environment of the regulator must be at an altitude no higher than 1000 m, with an ambient medium temperature no greater than +40 ℃ and a relative air humidity no greater than 85%. The regulator is used in an environment free of chemically corrosive gases and vapours, in an atmosphere without explosive hazardous gases, and in a location not exposed to rain ingress.

In general, unless a current-limiting device is added, two or more units cannot be used in parallel.

Structural features: the regulator structure divides into two parts, the main body and the transmission control.

The main body is like a wound-rotor asynchronous motor, consisting of a stator, a wound rotor and two end covers, front and rear, and it is installed vertically. Regulator windings are generally a double-layer short-pitch lap winding for three-phase units and a single-layer concentric winding for single-phase units.

The transmission control is dual-purpose, electric and manual, and is clearly marked with raise-voltage and lower-voltage direction indicator plates. The electric and manual transmission consists of two pairs of worm gears and worms, a handwheel, a drive motor, a limit switch and a stopper. The first pair of worm gear and worm is assembled with the drive motor to reduce the motor speed and drive the second pair. In normal service the servo motor on the regulator is controlled to run forwards or backwards from the buttons of the remote control device, changing the regulator output voltage. The handwheel drive is normally used for fine voltage adjustment, and also ensures that the regulator can still be adjusted normally if the drive motor fails. The limit switch cuts off the motor supply automatically when the regulator output voltage reaches its upper or lower limit, while the stopper restricts the rotor to rotation within the specified mechanical angle.

Wiring: the input and output connections of the regulator are all made on the terminal board inside the junction box on the machine body. Input terminals are marked A, B and C for three-phase units, or A and X for single-phase units. Output terminals are marked a, b and c for three-phase units, or a and x for single-phase units.

Frequently Asked Questions

What operating conditions does the regulator require?
The altitude must not exceed 1000 m, the ambient medium temperature must not exceed +40 ℃ and the relative air humidity must not exceed 85%. The regulator must be used in an environment free of chemically corrosive gases and vapours, free of explosive hazardous gases, and in a location where rain cannot enter.
Can two or more regulators be operated in parallel?
In general, no. Unless a current-limiting device is added, two or more units cannot be used in parallel.
How is the output voltage adjusted?
The transmission control is dual-purpose, electric and manual, with clearly marked raise-voltage and lower-voltage direction plates. Normally the servo motor on the regulator is run forwards or backwards from the buttons of the remote control device, changing the output voltage. The handwheel is normally used for fine voltage adjustment, and also allows the regulator to be adjusted normally if the drive motor fails. The limit switch cuts off the motor supply automatically when the output voltage reaches the upper or lower limit, and the stopper restricts the rotor to rotation within the specified mechanical angle.
