GE DS2020FEBNRX015A Field Exciter Module

GE DS2020FEBNRX015A Field Exciter Module is a specialized power electronic board used in General Electric Mark V Speedtronic Turbine Control Systems and associated industrial drive panels.1

It is a critical component for controlling the magnetic field of large rotating electrical machinery, such as generators or synchronous motors.

⚡ Primary Function: Field Excitation

The module’s main purpose is to provide and precisely regulate the Direct Current (DC) excitation to the field winding of a motor or generator.2

  • Voltage Regulation: By controlling the strength of the magnetic field, the module allows for the accurate adjustment and stabilization of the generator’s output voltage and reactive power.3
  • Current Rating: The 015A in the part number indicates its maximum 4$\text{DC}$ current capacity, rated for 15 Amps of field excitation.5
  • Non-Reversing/Non-Plugging: The FEBNRX designation stands for Field Exciter Board Non-reversing 6$\mathbf{/}$ Non-plugging (7$\mathbf{NRX}$), signifying that it is designed for non-reversing field supplies, which simplifies the control and protection circuitry.8
