High‑precision synchronous sampling of generator voltage, current and excitation‑loop analog quantities, provide measuring source for automatic voltage‑regulation closed‑loop control.

Complete AVR voltage regulation, reactive‑power / power‑factor adjustment, parallel‑unit reactive‑power distribution algorithm calculation.

Full‑set excitation‑limit functions: over‑excitation limit, under‑excitation limit, stator‑current limit, V/Hz limitation, rotor over‑current protection logic.

Output high‑speed trigger pulse signals to control thyristor or IGCT rectifier power unit, realize real‑time adjustment of excitation current.

Collect cabinet binary status signals, output fault alarm and trip interlock signals.

Powerful disturbance‑recording and sequence‑of‑event logging function, large‑capacity fault‑data storage.

Multi‑group communication interfaces realize data interaction with plant DCS and upper‑monitoring system.

Hardware self‑diagnosis detects internal circuit and channel fault, report fault code to HMI and DCS.

Configuration and commissioning are completed by UNITROL Configurator and Control Builder M engineering software.

Plug‑in installation inside AC800PEC rack of excitation cabinet. High‑power power cables and weak‑signal sampling cables shall be laid separately, ensure cabinet grounding is reliable. Auxiliary 24 V DC power supply must keep within rated working range. After module replacement, confirm hardware version matches original project configuration, download complete excitation configuration file. Carry out closed‑loop simulation test, pulse‑trigger output inspection, analog‑channel calibration, binary‑I/O point‑to‑point test and DCS communication verification. This board must cooperate with matching power unit and auxiliary boards, cannot be arbitrarily replaced with old PCD230A without software adaptation. Confirm no hardware self‑diagnosis fault alarm before putting into operation.

Core control‑measurement board for UNITROL6000/6800 static excitation system of medium‑large synchronous generators in thermal‑power plants, hydropower plants and nuclear‑power plants, used for excitation cabinet maintenance and spare‑part replacement.
