GE DS3815MBAA Generrex, MIN BUS Card

As a MIN BUS card, the DS3815MBAA works in conjunction with other components of the Generrex system:

  • Thyristor or Diode Bridges: The MIN BUS is connected to the exciter’s power circuit, which is typically a rectifier bridge of diodes or thyristors.
  • Voltage Regulators: While the MIN BUS card ensures a minimum voltage, the main voltage regulator card handles the variable voltage needed to control the generator’s output.
  • Generator Field Winding: The ultimate destination of the current from the exciter system, where the magnetic field is created.

الوصف

The GE DS3815MBAA is a MIN BUS Card for the Generrex Excitation System, not the GE Speedtronic Mark IV. The Generrex system is a static power source that provides DC current to the field winding of a generator to create a magnetic field.


 

Function and Purpose ⚙️

 

The primary function of the DS3815MBAA MIN BUS card is to provide minimum excitation to the generator’s field winding. In a generator system, a certain level of DC excitation is always required to maintain the generator’s voltage, even when there is no load. This card ensures that this minimum excitation bus (MIN BUS) is maintained and supplied to the main power circuit. The card typically acts as a power-conditioning and distribution component, taking in power and ensuring a clean, stable, minimum-level DC current is available for the exciter. It is a critical component for maintaining the generator’s voltage stability, especially during transient conditions.
