Engine
The
DCA-150SSJU
is powered by a 4 cycle, water cooled,
turbocharged John Deere 6081TF001 diesel
engine. This
engine is designed to meet every performance requirement
for the generator. Reference Table 7, page 23 for engine
specifications.
In keeping with MQ Power's policy of constantly improving
its products, the specifications quoted herein are subject to
change without prior notice.
The basic controls and indicators for the DCA-150SSJU
generator are addressed on the following pages.
Electronic Governor System
The electronic governor system is made up of two parts, an
electronic controller that monitors frequency variation as the
load increases and decreases and an electronic actuator
that controls the engine throttle. The frequency is regulated
at ±0.25 to help protect sensitive equipment.
Engine
Open Delta Excitation System
The DCA-150SSJU generator is equipped with the state of
the art "
Open-Delta
" excitation system. The open delta
system consist of an electrically independent winding wound
among stationary windings of the AC output section.
There are four leads: A, B, C and D. During light loads, the
power to the
Automatic Voltage Regulator
(AVR) is supplied
from the leads parallel connections of B&C. When loads
increase, the AVR switches and accepts power from leads
A&D. The output of leads A&D increase proportionally with
load.
This of adding the voltages to each phase provides
better voltage response during heavy loads.
The connections of the AVR to the AC output windings are
for sensing only. No power is required from these windings.
The open-delta design provides virtually unlimited excitation
current, offering maximum motor starting capabilities. The
excitation does not have a "
fixed ceiling
" and responds
according the demands of the required load.
