Overview
The WT-2 is an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) that maintains the generator output voltage within precise limits by controlling the exciter field current. It continuously samples the generator output voltage and adjusts excitation to compensate for load changes, engine speed variations, and temperature drift.
Key Features
- 6A Continuous Output — 100VDC max for demanding alternators
- ±0.5% Regulation — High-precision analog control
- Dual Voltage System — 180-250VAC or 350-460VAC selectable
- 15A Short-Term Capacity — 1-minute peak for motor starting
- Under-Frequency Protection — Adjustable knee point
- Droop CT Input — 0-5% at 0.8 PF for parallel operation
