D510C DIGITAL AVR

FOR SHUNT, AREP or PMG EXCITATION

CHARACTERISTICS

••Voltage regulation: ± 0.25%

••Function: regulation of voltage, PF,
kVAR and manual regulation

••Response time depending on PID

settings

••Rated field current: 6 A

••Maximum field current: 15 A/10 s
••Power supply range for voltage

••Protection:
- Short-circuit / Loss of voltage
reference / Overvoltage /
Overexcitation / High Temperature /
The D510C is a digital voltage regulator, which monitors and regulates the - Speed drop / Diode fault / Stator
alternator 
output voltage. It is designed for alternators with SHUNT, AREP current unbalance / Current
or PMG excitation. limitation

The D510C is an AVR which can be configured using the Easyreg® software. ••Engine assistance:
- Soft start : 0 - 100 s
• There are 4 possible regulation modes: voltage, P.F., kVA, manual - U/F adjustable from 0.5 to 3 in
• The I/O can be configured: increments of 0.1
- 2 x I: analog - LAM : 0 to 30%
- 1 x O: analog - Gradual increase : 0.1 to 30 s/Hz
- 2 x I: digital ••Grid code function
- 3 x O: digital
• 1 dry contact
• 1 USB port
• DB9 plug for CAN

It complies fully with the requirements of IEC standard 60034-1 and UL 708 and
CSA certifications.

CONNEXION AND SETTING OPERATION CONDITIONS

The AVR is set using the Easyreg® software.

••Operating temperature: ••Vibrations:
- 40°C to + 65°C - Less than 10 Hz : 2 mm half-peak
••This can be used to: amplitude
- Set the AVR parameters ••Storage temperature: - 10 Hz to 100 Hz : 100 mm/s
- Configure the inputs and outputs - 55°C to + 85°C
- Above 100 Hz : 8 g
- Display faults and parameter
measurements ••Shocks on the base : 9 g depending on
the 3 axes
