R448 & R448 V50 A.V.R. This manual concerns the alternator A.V.R. which you have just purchased. We wish to draw your attention to the contents of this maintenance manual. By following certain important points during installation, use and servicing of your A.V.R., you can look forward to many years of trouble-free operation.
These 2 A.V.R.s have strictly identical 1.1 - Description characteristics dimensions, The A.V.R. R 448 V50 is delivered in a box following details distinguish the V50: designed to be mounted on a panel with - an adjuster dedicated to the alternator suspension.
R448 & R448 V50 A.V.R. The first winding has a voltage in proportion 2 - SUPPLY to that of the alternator (characteristic 2.1 - AREP excitation system Shunt), the second has a voltage in For both AREP & PMG excitation systems, proportion to the stator current (compound the alternator voltage regulator is the R characteristic: Booster effect).
R448 & R448 V50 A.V.R. jumper must be disconnected. 2.2 - PMG excitation system These two principles provide the machine With PMG excitation, a permanent magnet with a short-circuit current capacity of 3 IN generator (PMG) added to the alternator for 10 s, and good immunity to distortions supplies the AVR with voltage which is generated by the load.
R448 & R448 V50 A.V.R. - 3-phase sensing (R 731 module) 2.3 - SHUNT or separate excitation - LAM function integrated in the R 448 AVR. system In SHUNT excitation, R 448 A.V.R. is In this case of LSA 42.2, A.V.R. and supplied by main windings (140V - 50/60 module(s) must be installed in the Hz) to X1, X2.

R448 & R448 V50 A.V.R. the voltage between E+ and E- (approx. 10V 4.2.2 - Max. excitation setting (excitation D.C.). The best response times are obtained ceiling) at the limit of the instability. If no stable Max. excitation depending on the mains frequency position can be obtained, try disconnecting or replacing the ST2 jumper (normal/fast).
