Description
FCR-40 digital excitation for larger machines.
Did you know
- WEG is a Brazilian company that manufactures a wide range of electrical equipment, including automatic voltage regulators (AVRs). While a specific launch date for the FCR-40 is not readily available, WEG has been producing voltage regulators for many years, with models like the ETC-2 being in use since at least September 2019.
- The FCR-40 is part of WEG's line of automatic voltage regulators, which are designed to activate synchronous machines with brushless excitation for controlling voltage, excitation current, reactive power, or power factor. Other WEG AVRs include the ETC-2 and the GRT7-TH4E.
- WEG's automatic voltage regulators, including the FCR-40, are chosen for their ability to maintain stable alternator output voltage even with load variations. They are suitable for 50/60Hz brushless excitation alternators and often include features like droop function for parallel operation and over-excitation protection.
