Description
Full-featured digital excitation for large ship propulsion generators.
Did you know
- The ABB UNITROL 6080 is a fully digital automatic voltage regulator (AVR) that represents a significant advancement in excitation control, moving beyond older analog AVRs. It is part of the UNITROL 6000 series, which is ABB's latest generation of AVRs and static excitation systems (SES).
- The UNITROL 6080 is positioned as a compact and cost-effective solution within ABB's UNITROL 6000 series, designed for small to medium power applications. It utilizes the AC 800PEC high-performance processor family, which is an extension of ABB's 800xA control platform. The broader UNITROL 6000 series also includes the UNITROL 6000 Medium and UNITROL 6000 X-power, which cater to larger current ranges and customization levels.
- The UNITROL 6080 is chosen for its high-performance digital control, offering precise voltage regulation within tight tolerances (±0.5% steady state) and comprehensive integrated protection features. Its modular design allows for flexible configuration, including selectable redundancy for control and power modules, ensuring high reliability and availability.
| Model | Continuous DC Current (Max) | Max AC Voltage | Voltage Regulation Accuracy | Control Channels |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| UNITROL 6080 | 1,600 A | 690 V | ±0.5% | Single/Double (with optional backup) |
| UNITROL 6800 (UNITROL 6000 X-power) | 10,000 A | 1,500 V | Not specified, but part of 6000 series known for ultimate control performance | Single/Double (with optional backup) |
| UNITROL 1000 | 40 A | 300 V (DC) / 250 V (AC) | Not specified, but known for accurate voltage regulation | Not specified |
