SX440 automatic voltage regulator is a half-wave phase-controlled thyristor type machine, and it forms part of the excitation system for a brushless generator. In addition to regulating the generator voltage, its circuitry includes under-speed and sensing loss protection features, and excitation power is derived directly from the generator terminals.
Positive voltage build up from residual levels is ensured by the use of efficient semiconductors in the power circuitry. This product is linked with the main stator windings and the exciter field windings to provide closed loop control of the output voltage with load regulation of ±1.0%.

In addition to being powered from the main stator, this regulator also obtains a sample voltage from the output windings for voltage control purpose. In response to the sample voltage, this product controls the power fed to the exciter field, and hence the main field, to maintain the machine output voltage within the specified limits, compensating for load, speed, temperature and power factor of the generator.
On the other hand, a frequency measuring circuit continually monitors the generator output and provides output under-speed protection of the excitation system, by reducing the output voltage proportionally with speed below a pre-settable threshold. A manual adjustment is provided for factory setting of the under frequency roll off point (UFRO). This can easily be changed to 50 or 60 Hz in the field by push on link selection.
Provision is made for the connection of a remote voltage trimmer, allowing the user fine control of the generator's output. Meanwhile, an analogue input is provided allowing connection to a Newage power factor controller or other external devices with compatible output. In addition, this voltage regulator has the facility for droop CT connection to allow parallel running with other similarly equipped generators.
