    MVC 236 Voltage Regulator. In these cases, Basler Electric recommends the use of the Spike Suppression Module which was supplied with the Regulator to filter out these potentially...
  • Page 6: Section 2 Principles Of Operation

    The MVC 236 is designed to operate from 60, 120, or 240 Vac nominal sources by making a simple tap change. Taps are also provided to select 32, 63, or 125 Vdc outputs. A jumper is used to select the proper input power frequency.
  • Page 7: Section 3 Installation Instructions

    INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 3-1. MOUNTING a. Manual Voltage Control Module Mounting. The MVC 236 must be mounted vertically for maximum cooling. The unit can be mounted anywhere that the ambient temperature does not exceed the environmental conditions (refer to Table 1-2).

    Figure 3-2. Manual Voltage Adjust Rheostat. b. Spike Suppression Module Mounting. The Spike Suppression Module will operate when mounted in any position. The Spike Suppression Module can be mounted in any location where the ambient temperature does not exceed the operational limits. Due to its rugged construction, the Spike Suppression Module can be mounted directly on the generator.
  • Page 9: Interconnection

    Incorrect use of such equipment could damage com- ponents contained in the device. a. General. The MVC 236 connects with the generator system as shown in Figures 3-4 and 3-5. Number 14 gauge wire or larger should be used for connections to the unit.

  • Page 14: Section 5 Maintenance And Troubleshooting

    SECTION 5 MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING 5-1. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE A periodic inspection of the MVC 236 should be made to ensure that it is clean and free from accumulations of dust and moisture. Verify that all terminal connections are clean, free of corrosion, and tight.
