    Thyristor Static Excitation Systems

    Mitsubishi Electrics thyristor static excitation systems are used extensively for medium- and large-capacity hydroelectric and steam-turbine generators. They offer excellent performance, high reliability, quick response, easy maintenance and a simple structure.
    Since completion of the first system in 1968, we have delivered more than 500 thyristor static excitation systems.

    System Configurations

    The voltage regulator and potential source static excitation system functions to control the voltage of an AC generator by directly controlling the generator's DC field current. The static excitation system is composed of the following;

    Ratings and Dimensions


    The ratings of a static exciter are principally defined by the rating current and peak voltage. The typical ratings and cubicle dimensions are as follows; Ratings Maximum current (A) 1350 1100 3509 2422 8000 8000 8566 9462 Maximum peak voltage (V) 460 1000 1100 1480 1100 1480 1100 1600 L 2900 3000 3200 3400 6000 8700 4900 6400 D 2000 2000 2000 2000 2500 2500 2500 2500 H 2300 2300 2300 2300 2600 2600 2600 2600 L1 0 0 0 0 0 1200 0 0 Dimensions (mm) L2 0 0 0 0 1200 1200 1200 1200 L3 900 1000 1000 1200 1200 1500 1000 1000 L4 1000 1000 1200 1200 1200 1200 1500 1500 L5 0 0 0 0 1200 1200 0 1500 L6 0 0 0 0 0 1200 0 0 L7 1000 1000 1000 1000 1200 1200 1200 1200

    Thyristor rectifier bridge and thyristor elements


    The 3-phase, full-bridge rectifier circuit has fast response characteristics. A compact cubicle design is realized with the large on-state current, high reversed voltage flat-pack thyristor elements, and forced air cooling. The thyristor elements are installed in a tray, and can be exchanged during operation. For better cost performance, trayless units are also manufactured.

    Field flashing
    The field flashing circuit is necessary when a generator is started, because of the selfexcitation system. A DC battery is usually used as the initial excitation power supply. An AC power supply can also be adopted with the incorporations of rectifiers and a transformer.

    Field suppression
    Immediate de-excitation is necessary when generator trouble occurs. Generally, DC field circuit breakers are used, but a static-field circuit breaker system can be used for better cost-performance. These systems reduce the field energy by reversing the excitation voltage at the rectifier gate controls, realizing rapid de-excitation.

    Remarks:The mark indicates the dimensions of the trayless and static field circuit breaker system. The above dimensions are subject to change by detail and design progress.

    Over-voltage protection
    C-R absorbers and varisters are installed in each AC and DC circuit to protect the thyristor elements from over-voltage. In large-capacity systems, a crowbar circuit is adapted for the DC circuit.

    Excitation transformer
    The excitation transformer reduces the supply voltage to the level required for excitation. Generally, a dry-type transformer is used for small-capacity requirements and an oil-type transformer for large-capacity requirements.
