Digital Voltage Regulator (1) Display (2) Keypad (3) J1 connector (4) Screw terminalsDisplay (1) of the digital voltage regulator, shows numbers that represent different parameters of the digital voltage regulator system. Keypad (2) is used to change the information that is shown on display (1). J1 connector (3) is used to join the digital voltage regulator to a personal computer. Screw terminals (4) are used to join the digital voltage regulator to the generator and various customer options.The digital voltage regulator is a microprocessor based voltage regulator. The main purpose of the digital voltage regulator is to regulate output voltage of a generator which is used with an engine generator set. Service personnel can modify (configure) certain regulation characteristics. The modifications will allow the engine generator set performance to be optimized. The digital voltage regulator can also integrate into one package many options that were previously panel mounted. The options include KVAR/PF controller, over excitation protection, fault detection, over voltage protection, under voltage protection, diode monitor, reverse power relay and system parameter monitoring.The digital voltage regulator parameters that can be configured are listed below.

Loss of frequencyThe digital voltage regulator can be set up for a specific application by using the parameters that can be configured. Parameters are preset at the factory. Parameters may need to be adjusted in order to meet the specific requirements of a site. The digital voltage regulator also detects faults and sets the appropriate alarm or caution. Certain system parameters can also be monitored on the display of the digital voltage regulator.
