1. GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1.2 Conditions of use

1.1 INTRODUCTION

a) Generalities
A machine must only be installed, operated, by specifically
trained persons.

1.1.0 General points


This manual provides installation, operating and
maintenance instructions for synchronous machines. It
also describes the basic construction of these machines.
This manual is general ; it applies to an entire group of
synchronous generators. Additionally, in order to make
information-finding easier, Section 1, "Characteristics and
Performance", has been included, describing the machine
completely (type of construction, type of bearing,
protection index, and so forth...); this will enable you to
determine exactly the chapters which apply to your
machine.
This synchronous machine has been designed for a
maximum length of service. To achieve this, it is necessary
to pay special attention to the chapter concerning the
periodic maintenance schedule for the machines.

1.2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1.2.1 Generator
The synchronous generator is an alternating-current
machine, without rings or brushes. The machine is cooled
by the flow of air through the machine.
For a batter comprehension, use the drawings of chapter
10.
1.2.2 Excitation system
The excitation system is mounted on the side opposite the
coupling.
The excitation system comprises two assemblies:
The excitation armature, generating a three-phase current,
coupled with the three-phase rectifier bridge (comprised of
six diodes) supplies the excitation current to the generator
revolving field. The excitation armature and the rectifier
bridge are mounted on the synchronous generator rotor
shaft and are interconnected electrically with the revolving
field of the machine.
The excitation field winding (stator) is supplied by the
control (in direct current)

2. DESCRIPTION OF SUB-ASSEMBLIES
2.1 STATOR
2.1.1 Electric machine armature
a) Mechanical description
The machine stator comprises low-loss steel laminations,
assembled under pressure. The steel laminations are
blocked axially by a welded ring. The stator coils are
inserted and blocked in the slots, then impregnated with
varnish, and polymerised to ensure maximum resistance to
mould, excellent dielectric rigidity and perfect mechanical
linking.
2.1.2 Excitation field winding
The excitation field winding comprises a solid element and
a winding.
The excitation is flanged on the rear end shield of the
machine.
The winding is made of enamelled copper wires.
2.1.3 Stator protection
a) Heating resistor
The heating element avoids internal condensation during
the shutdown periods. It is connected to the main terminal
box strip. The heating resistor is switched on as soon as
the machine is shut down. It is located at the back end of
the machine.
The electrical characteristics are provided in Section 1
"Technical Characteristics".

To improve the machine protection the alarm set point may


be reduced following effective site information:
Alarm temperature (*) = Highest recorded temp + 10K
Trip temperature (*) = Alarm temperature + 5 K
(*) do not pass over the values of the previous chart.
(*)Highest recorded temp: Temperature measured at
the site in the worst temperature condition at the stator
temperature sensor
E.g. : a class B machine reached 110C during a facto ry
heat run test. Set the alarm temperature to 120C in stead
of 130C as indicated in the previous chart. Set the
emergency shutdown to 115C instead of 135C as
indicated in the previous chart.
c) Stator air sensor
As an option an RTD or thermostat can measure the stator
air inlet temperature (cold air)
Stator air inlet temperature; Alarm points and shutdown:
alarm
Nominal air inlet stator + 5 K
shutdown
80C
Stator air outlet temperature; Alarm points and shutdown:
alarm
Nominal air inlet stator + 35K
shutdown
Nominal air inlet stator + 40K
NOTE :
For an open drip proof machine the nominal air
temperature entering the stator corresponds to the ambiant
temperature
Inhibit the stator air sensor safety "alarm" for few seconds
during the machine start up;
NOTE:
For a water cooled machine (CACW) the nominal air
entering the stator may be approximated as following:
Tair entering stator = Twater entering cooler + 15K

b) Stator winding temperature sensor


The temperature sensors are located in the active part of
the stack. They are located in the zone assumed to be the
hottest part of the machine. The sensors are connected to
a terminal box.
Depending on the temperature rise of the machine, the
temperature of the sensors should not exceed a maximum
of :

2.2 ROTOR
2.2.1 Revolving field-coil
The revolving field coil comprises a stack of steel
laminations, stamped and cut to reproduce the indentation
of the projecting poles.
The steel lamination stack-up is terminated at each end
with high-conductivity electrical plates.
To enable parallel operation between machines, and in
order to ensure stability, high electrical conductivity bars
are inserted in holes crossing the poles from one side to
the other. These bars are welded with the stack end
laminations in order to obtain a complete cage winding (or
LEBLANC dampening cage).
The winding (B) is placed around the pole (A) and is
impregnated with epoxy resin (class F machine insulation)
or with varnish (class H machine insulation).
The winding is made of insulated flattened copper with
high electrical conductivity.

2.2.3 Fan (machines: IC 0 A1)


The synchronous machine is characterized by a selfventilation system. A centrifugal fan is mounted between
the revolving field coil and the front bearing.
Air intake is at the rear of the machine and the exhaust on
the drive end side.
The fan consists of a hub, which is keyed and heat-shrunk
onto the shaft. The flange is made of welded steel,
attached to the hub with hexagonal head-cap screws. The
ventilation effect is obtained through welded, inclined
blades. The air exhaust is effected radially.
2.2.4 Rotating diode bridge
a) General points
The rectifier bridge, comprising six diodes, is placed at the
rear of the machine. The rotating bridge is made of glass
fibre with a printed circuit to connect the diodes together.
This bridge is supplied with alternating current by the
excitation armature and supplies direct current to the
revolving field-coil. The diodes are protected against over
voltage by rotating resistors, or by varistors. These
resistors (or varistors) are mounted in parallel with the
revolving field-coil.

The aluminium plates (E) are pressed against the winding,


acting as a heat dissipator and ensure excellent clamping
of these coils.
Support bars (C) on each pole protect the end windings
against the centrifugal force.

2.2.5 Balancing
The entire rotor has been balanced according to ISO8221
standard in order to obtain a residual imbalance less than :
Gen set : Class G2.5
Turbine : Class G1
The balancing is carried out at two levels. The first is that
of the fan. It is recommended, when the fan is refitted
(after servicing) to respect the initial indexing.
The second is that of the shaft end. The shaft end is coldstamped to indicate the type of balancing.

2.3 ANTI FRICTION-BEARINGS
2.3.0 Description of antifriction bearings
The bearings are installed at each end of the machine.
They can be replaced.
The bearings are protected from external dust by labyrinth
seals.
The bearings must be lubricated regularly. The old grease
is forced out at the lower part of the bearings by the force
of the new grease being injected.
2.3.1 Start-up of antifriction bearings
The bearings are pre-lubricated in the factory, but before
they are put into service, it is necessary to complete this
lubrication.
CAUTION
UPON START-UP, GREASE THE MACHINE WHILE IT IS
RUNNING SO AS TO FILL ALL THE FREE SPACES IN
THE GREASING DEVICE
Record the temperature of the bearings during the initial
operating hours. Poor lubrication can cause abnormal
heating.
If the bearing hisses, lubricate it immediately. Some
bearings may make a clattering noise if they do not
operate at normal temperature. This may occur if the
weather is very cold or when the machine is operating
under abnormal temperature conditions (start-up phase,
for example). The bearings will become quieter after
having reached their normal operating temperature.
2.3.2 Storage of machine with anti friction bearings
This chapter must be taken in consideration if a machine is
stopped more than 6 months.
Grease the bearings , machine stopped , inject two time
the grease volume used for a standard maintenance.
Every 6 months turn the the machine shaft line of few
turns. Then inject a standard grease volume

2.3.3 Maintenance of antifriction bearings


a) General points
Antifriction bearings or ball bearings do not require special
maintenance.
They must be lubricated regularly with the same type of
grease as used in the factory. For information concerning
the lubrication quantity and interval, refer to Section 1 :
"Characteristics and Performance".
CAUTION :
LUBRICATION MUST BE CARRIED OUT AT LEAST
EVERY 6 MONTHS
CAUTION :
IT MUST BE DANGEROUS TO MIX GREASES WHICH
HAVE DIFFERENT SOAP BASE. IT IS NECESSARY TO
GET THE GREASE SUPPLIER APPROVAL OR TO
CLEAN THE BEARING BEFOREHANDNOTE :

NOTE:
After a regreasing the bearing temperature may increase
of 10 to 20C
This temporary temperature increase may stay few tens of
hours
NOTE:
For re greasing period lower than 2000 hours we
recommend to install a continuous greasing system to limit
the maintenance operators visit
These type of system must be disable during machine stop
The grease contained in these systems must not be stored
over a period of 1 year
b) Lubricant
Recommended lubricant: SKF LGWA2 or SHELL
RETINAX LX2 (lithium complex base).
Recommendation for a grease choice ::
Mineral oil or PAO (SHC)
Base (soap ) grade NLGI 2
Lithium complex base
Base oil viscosity 100 to 200 mm2/s
Dye penetration test (DIN 51817) : 2% minimum
Use of grease which do not fit to the recomended figure
(substitution grease) :
Mineral oil or PAO (SHC)
Base (soap ) grade NLGI 2 or NLGI 3
Lithium base
Base oil viscosity 100 to 200 mm2/s
Dye penetration test (DIN 51817) : 2% minimum
CAUTION :
THE USE OF A SUBSTITUTION GREASE CONDUCE TO
REDUCE THE RE GREASING PERIOD OF 30%
NOTE:
Lithium and complex lithium soap can be mixed

This note is applicable when the type of grease is
changed.
Dismantle the machine in order to get to the bearing
Remove the old grease with a palette knife.
Clean the lubricator and the grease removal tube.
For greater cleaning efficiency, use a brush with solvent.
NOTE:
The most widely-used solvent is gasoline : white spirit is
acceptable.
DANGER:
THE PROHIBITED SOLVENTS ARE:
CHLORINATED SOLVENT
(TRICHLORETHYLENE,TRICHLOROETHANE) WHICH
BECOMES ACID
FUEL-OIL (EVAPORATES TOO SLOWLY)
GASOLINE CONTAINING LEAD
BENZINE (TOXIC)
Blow compressed air onto the bearings to evaporate the
excess solvent.
Fill the bearing with the new grease.
Re-assemble the cage and the parts, which have been
dismantled, filling them with grease.
Use a grease pump to complete the bearing lubrication
(while machine running)

c) Bearing re-assembly
A bearing can be refitted if it is known to be in perfect
condition
Before refitting a bearing, carefully clean the surface of the
bearing and the other parts of the bearing.
To install the bearing on the shaft, it is necessary to heat
the bearing. The heat source may be an oven or a space
heater (the use of oil baths is strongly discouraged).
CAUTION:
NEVER HEAT A BEARING TO MORE THAN 125C
(257F)
Push the bearing up to the shaft shoulder, and check after
cooling that the inner ring is still in contact with the
shoulder. Lubricate using the recommended grease.
2.3.5 Antifriction bearing protection devices
As an option, the bearing may be protected from overheating by RTD or PTC sensors (customers choice)..
For special use in warm surroundings where the
temperature of the bearings exceeds the authorised limit
(for a bearing known to be in good condition), contact us.

2.3.4 Servicing the antifriction bearings

To improve the machine protection the alarm set point may


be reduced following site effective information:

a) General points

Alarm temperature (*) = Highest recorded temp + 15K


(*) do not pass over the values of the previous chart.

CAUTION:
CLEANLINESS IS IMPERATIVE

E.g. : At site the common bearing temperature is 60C . Set


the alarm temperature to 75C instead of 90C as
indicated in the previous chart

b) Removing the bearings


The inner bearing race is mounted, shrunk onto the shaft.
The outer bearing race is free, or slightly tightened, on the
hub (depending on the type of bearing). To remove the
bearing from the shaft, it is necessary to use a hub-puller
to avoid damaging the surface of the bearing.

c) Operating description of Oil circulation bearing


Proceed as for the self-lubricated bearings.
For special duty of high speed machine or high loaded
bearing it might be necessary to have an oil circulation
system (external device which ensure the cooling and the
circulation of the oil)

2.4.0 Description of horizontal Sleeve bearings

The oil warmed by the bearing losses is externally cooled


and is returned directly to the shell. To obtain efficient
cooling the oil flow must be correct (refer to section 1).

a) Physical description
Rotation of the machine rotor is guided by Sleeve
bearings.

2.4.1 Electrical insulation of Sleeve bearings

The bearing housing is constructed in two ribbed parts


providing considerable heat extraction potential.
The sleeve bearing comprises two half-shells with an
external spherical shape. This allows self-alignment. The
guiding surfaces of the sleeve bearing are covered with tinbased anti-friction metal.

a) Illustration diagram of the insulating film


Following the used technology shaft circulating current
may occurs. When necessary, ACEO insulates the Non
Drive End bearing to avoid shaft-circulating current.
An insulating film is applied to the bearing housing
spherical seat.

The spherical seat of the housing of the electrically


insulated bearings is covered with an insulating coating.
The positioning pin of the sleeve bearing in the housing is
also insulated with an insulating bush.
The lubrication ring, mounted free on the shaft, is made of
brass. In order to simplify dismantling, the ring is cut in two
parts, assembled using screws.
A guide for the lubrication ring (synthetic materials) is
attached to the upper bearing half-shell (for marine
applications only).
The floating labyrinth seals are cut in two parts, held
together by an expandable ring. These seals are inserted
in a support. A seal-positioning pin rests in the support to
block it during rotation.
The upper part of the housing is closed by means of a
glass plug allowing observation of the rotation of the
lubrication ring. A threaded metal plug allows the bearing
to be filled with oil.

1 Electrical insulation
CAUTION:
WHEN INSULATED BEARING IS USED THE
ACCESSORIES IN CONTACT WITH THE SHELL MUST
BE ELECTRICALLY INSULATED (TEMPERATURE
SENSOR )

The lower housing may be equipped with an oil-level sight


indicator, a thermometer and a temperature sensor.
b) Operating description of Self-lubricating bearing
Upon stopping, the shaft rests on the lower bearing; there
is metal-to-metal contact.
During the start-up phase, the shaft rubs against the antifriction metal of the bearing. Oil lubrication is used.
After having reached its transition speed, the shaft creates
its oil film. At this point there is no further contact between
the shaft and bearing.
CAUTION:
PROLONGED OPERATION AT EXTREMELY SLOW
ROTATION SPEEDS (SEVERAL rpm) WITHOUT
LUBRICATION COULD SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE
SERVICE LIFE OF THE BEARING.

e) Oil circulation bearing with accurate oil flow
(+5% ; -10%)
To identify your bearing characteristics refer to section 1
This chapter typically applies for bearings engineered for
heavy thrust (tilting pads as for bearing types E..Z.A).
CAUTION:
THE OIL FLOW MUST BE CARREFULLY ADJUSTED TO
THE REQUESTED VALUE
The oil circulating bearings are delivered with:
a breather
an oil inlet flow regulating system.
The "oil inlet regulating system" consists of :
an adjustable pressure reducing valve "A"
a diaphragm.
Ensure that the complete oil supply and return lines have
been rinsed as instructed in the chapter.2.4.3
Ensure that the installation instructions have been followed
(refer to chapter.2.4.3) such as filtering unit, return line
properly inclined etc.
Proceed as for the self-lubricated bearings and then
start the oil supply system (pump etc.). The oil flow must
be strictly adjusted within the requested value using a flow
meter. Run the generator.
Machine running and oil at the operating temperature the
oil sight glass level should be within 1/3 and 2/3 of the
glass. If the level reach the top of the oil sight glass
investigate for the oil return line design.
f) Inspection of Sleeve bearings at the end of start-up
Supervise the bearing during the trial run ( 5-10 operating
hours ).
Pay special attention to:
- oil level
- bearing temperature
- sliding noises of the shaft seals
- tightness
- occurrence of vibrations.
CAUTION :
IF THE BEARING TEMPERATURE EXCEEDS THE
CALCULATED VALUE OF 15 k STOP THE MACHINE
IMMEDIATELY. INSPECT THE BEARING AND
DETERMINE THE CAUSES.
In case of oil oozing retighten the bearing fixing screws
and plugs to the recommended torque

2.4.5 Maintenance of Sleeve bearings


a) Verification of oil-level
Check the oil level at regular intervals.
The oil level limits are as follows:
minimum oil level: bottom of the oil sight glass
maximum oil level: 2/3 the top of the oil sight glass

2/3

Maximum admissible oil level


Optimum top oil level
Optimum bottom oil level

1/2 1/3

Minimum admissible oil level


b) Temperature verification
Check the bearing temperature and record it. A bearing
temperature, which suddenly varies without any obvious
reason (change of ambient temperature etc.), indicates
abnormal operation. It is then necessary to inspect the
bearing.
c) Oil draining
NOTE:
Risk of pollution! Please observe the instructions for the
use of the lubricating oil. The manufacturer can provide
information on waste oil disposal
It is recommended to drain the oil at intervals of
8000 hours of operation in dirty environment (eg :
gen set application)
16000 hours of operation in clean environment (eg :
hydro power plant)
Shut down the installation and secure it against unintended
operation.
Take all necessary measures to collect all of the lubricating
oil.
Release the lubricating oil while it is still warm. Impurities
and residues will thus be removed.
Unscrew the oil drain plug (27). Release the lubricating oil
and collect it.
NOTE:
If the lubricating oil contains unusual residues or is visibly
changed, eliminate the causes. If necessary, carry out an
inspection.
Tighten the oil drain plug (27) using the following torque

NOTE:
Make sure that no impurities get into the bearing.
Use a lubricant with the viscosity indicated on the bearing
type plate. Fill the lubricant through the oil filler hole (4) up
to the middle point of the oil sight glass (23).
The oil level limits are as follows:
minimum oil level: bottom of the oil sight glass
maximum oil level: 2/3 the top of the oil sight glass
NOTE:
Insufficient lubricant leads to temperature rises and thus to
damage to the bearing.
Too much lubricant leads to leakage. In the case of
bearings lubricated by a loose oil ring, too much lubricant
could break the oil ring, thus leading to damage to the
bearing.

Example: The oil return line (of a circulation bearing)


opening directly into a diesel motor lower sump and
allowing the housing back-pressure to return to the
bearing.
Example: A vacuum generated by a coupling located too
close the Sleeve bearing and acting as a fan.
The relative depression (or pressure) during operation
must remain less than 5 mm of water column. The relative
pressure is the pressure difference existing between the
bearing oil sump and the bearing outside (measured close
to the seals).

NOTE:
Be careful not to cause water to enter the bearing
Measure the pressure (or depression) in millimeters of
water column.
NOTE:
Given the low pressures measured, to make the reading
easier it is advised to incline the water column manometer
by 5.7 (diagram below). A reading amplification of "10" is
thus obtained.

e) Oil for sleeve bearing


We do not have any special recommendation regarding
any mineral oil manufacturer.
The used oil must comply with the requested viscosity
(refer to Section 1).
For frequent cold starting (lower than -15C) witho ut oil
sump heater please contact us. A new oil viscosity may be
advised.
Use a non-foaming mineral oil, without additives. If an oil
containing additives has to be used, make sure that the
supplier confirms the chemical compatibility of the oil and
the lead anti-friction properties.

2.4.9 Oil-leakage trouble-shooting
Oil leakage can occur in the Sleeve bearings if certain
measures are not taken.
a) Self-lubricating bearing
- Is the oil level correct? (see chapter 2.4.5.a )
- Is the Sleeve bearing in decompression? (see chapter
2.4.5.d ). If the depression level is abnormal, add a
protective screen.
- Is the leakage occurring around the parting line? Clean
the parting lines carefully with a solvent. Apply a sealing
compound (refer to chapter 2.4.5) upon reassembly (see
chapter 2.4.6)
b) Oil circulation bearing
- All information and instructions concerning the "selflubricating bearings" apply.
- Is the bearing oil flow correct (for data refer to section 1)?
To adjust the oil flow refer to chapter 2.4.4
-Is the Sleeve bearing under pressure?
To measure refer to chapter 2.4.5 . This pressure most
certainly comes from the oil-return circuit. Check the oilreturn circuit (refer to chapter 2.4.3 ). The back-pressure
can often be eliminated by inserting a siphon-effect on the
oil-return line (then make sure that the circuit modification
does not disturb the oil-return flow).
2.4.10 Sleeve bearing protection devices
a) Sight-level glass
A sight-level gauge is placed on each bearing housing (on
the left or the right). The level control method is described
in chapter 2.4.5 a
b) Oil thermometer (optional)
The thermometer gives the oil sump temperature.
The recorded oil sump temperature must stay below 85C
in normal condition.

c) Thermostat or sensor (optional)


The recorded oil sump temperature must stay below 85C
in normal condition.
The shell temperature must stay below 90C in norma l
condition.

To improve the bearing protection the temperature set
points can reduced following the effective site condition
Alarm temperature (*) = Highest recorded temp + 5K
Trip temperature (*) = Alarm temperature + 5 K
(*)Highest recorded temp: Temperature measured at
the site in the worst temperature
Eg: A bearing reach 80C in the worst site condition
Adjust the alarm set point to 85C instead of 95C a s
previously recommended.
Adjust the trip set point to 90C instead of 100C a s
previously recommended.
d) Pre lub pump (optional)
A pump takes up the oil from the bearing oil sump and
pours it over the bearing shell.
This pump ensures bearing lubrication, increasing the
greasing effect during operation at very low speed and
start up period
Check the electrical connection of the pump motor to be
sure of the rotation direction (the rotation direction is
indicated on the pump).
The pump has to be run few seconds before the
synchronous machine starting (pre lub effect) and stopped
as soon as the main shaft line pass over200 rpm
For application having a long stop period (time over 5
minutes; eg: Steam Turbine, hydro turbine) the pump has
to be run as soon as the speed pass below 200 rpm
The pump has to be run continuously during barring period
(eg: engine maintenance)

Oil circulating bearing are noticeable by the third digit of
their code. Letters "Z" ; "X" ; "U" indicate the use of an oil
circulating bearing
Example of oil circulating bearing :
EFZLK ; ERXLA ..
For engineering reason (need of cooling, need of
lubrication) an external oil supply can be requested.
Following the machine engineering the lubricating oil can
come from different sources :

Oil from the drive engine (System with gravity return)

Oil lubricating unit (System with gravity return)

Unit heater

2.6.1 Oil circulation by gravity return


a) General
This chapter applies for bearings, which need an oil
circulation system

7
3

NOTE:
Never leave the Sleeve bearing on the rinsing circuit, as
insoluble particles could enter the bearing and damage it.
The oil circulating bearings are equipped with an oil inlet
pressure regulating system (item 1)
The delivered oil pressure has to be reduced by the
bearing system before entering the bearing (to adjust
about 0.1 bar up to about 0.5 bar to get the correct oil flow,
refer to chapter 2.4.4 for start up).
A filtering unit must be installed on the supply system. The
filtering power must be at least 25 (0.025 mm).

The operating condition (sequences of operation,


maintenance ) are given by a specific notice attached to
the present one.

b) Supply line
To avoid excessive difficulties of cleaning, and to allow an
easy ducting, it is necessary to use pipes requested for
hydraulic duty
After installation of the oil lines, rinse the entire oil circuit in
order to avoid dirt or impurities entering inside the bearing
and its connections. Rinse with washing oil. It is important
to remove the instrumentation (for example, pressure
gauge, flow-meter ...) during the rinsing operation to avoid
any pollution.

c) gravity oil return


CAUTION:
REMEMBER THAT THE OIL EXHAUSTED FROM THE
BEARING GOES BACK TO THE TANK ONLY BY
GRAVITY EFFECT

CAUTION:
NOT TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY CAUSE HEAVY

It is imperative to quickly go down after the bearing output:
Install an elbow (minimum 60) immediately after th e
bearing exhaust.(item 3)
Pipe with a Minimum slope of 15 (so: a difference of 25
cm for 100cm long) minimum 300 mm high
The difference of level between return oil sump and
bearing exhaust must be strictly higher than "H"=200 mm
The average slope of the return line must be strictly higher
than 15 cm per meter of ground line. The average slope is
based on the difference of level between bearing exhaust
and return sump oil level.
The oil return line must no be exposed to counter current
air flow (air which should went from the oil return sump and
go toward the bearing).
Eg: a return line which should exhaust above the oil level
inside an engine oil sump should receive a crankcase back
pressure which should have a real negative effect.

a) General points

a) Cooler removal
The cooler unit is slid into its housing. It is possible to
remove the cooler from the housing without removing the
water boxes. The cooler is fastened to the housing via a
series of screws on the housing.

A regular cooler clogging will have the result to a regular


winding temperature increasing
The cooler cleaning period is mainly function of the water
purity
In case of used of non recirculated water with risk (eg: river
water with algae passing trough the cooler) we recommend
a tubes visit after one year of operation. The following visit
should be forecasted following the observed dust level.
b) Cleaning
Stop the machine.
Cut off the power supply by isolating the inlet and outlet
lines, and drain the water.
Disconnect the leak sensor (option with double-tube
cooler), and make sure that there are no leaks.
Remove the water boxes on each side of the machine.
Rinse and brush each water box.
NOTE:
Do not use a hard wire brush as this will remove the
protective oxidation layer which has formed on the
surfaces of the water boxes. Clean each tube with a metal
scraper. Rinse in soft water.

Remove the supply and return pipes.


Provide two supports to hold the cooler when it comes out
of its housing.
Remove the cooler using slings that can be attached to the
connecting flanges.

During the transport the shocks level applied to the
2
machines must remains below 30 m/s

Refer to chapter 2.3.2 (anti friction machine) or chapter


2.4.2 (sleeve bearing machine)

Machines equipped with roller bearing must have their


rotor locked during the transport to avoid "false brineling"
problem

For water-coolers, the water flow must be shut off. If the


water is not treated and if there is likelihood of freezing, the
exchanger must be drained.

Machine temperature must remains within the range -20C


to +70C. Stay down to -40C during few hours is adm itted.

For an open machine, it is recommended that the air inlet


and outlet be closed.

The machine must be protected against bad weather


conditions and condensation.

Before starting the machine up again, it will be necessary


to carry out a start-up inspection.

The heating resistor must be switched on at all times.

Machines must not be handled at temperature below -20C


4.1.2 Storage warehouse
The machine must be stored in clean and dry premises
which are not subject to abrupt changes in temperature or
to high humidity.
Storage at an ambient temperature of +5 to +45 C is
recommended.
The machine must not be subject to vibrations.
4.1.3 Maritime packing
The synchronous machine is carefully packed in a wooden
crate, then hermetically sealed.
Breaking the hermetic protective film discharges ACEO of
its long-duration storage guarantee.
4.1.4 Unpacking and installation
DANGER :
THE FOUR LIFTING HOOKS MUST BE USED TO LIFT
THE MACHINE WITH SLINGS (ONE HOOK AT EACH
CORNER OF THE MACHINE)
Rotors of machines with Sleeve bearings and singlebearing machines, are blocked during transportation so as
to avoid any movement. Withdraw the retaining bars. The
retaining bar is screwed to the end of the shaft and to the
front support.

4.2 INSTALLATION OF THE ELECTRIC


MACHINE
4.2.1 Fitting the coupling (double-bearing machine
only)
The coupling must be balanced separately before
assembly on the machine shaft. Refer to the balancing
instructions in chapter 2.2.5.
The shrinking of the half coupling onto the electrical
machine shaft end must be choose, by the gen-set
manufacturer, in such way as it should be removable for
maintenance (e.g.: bearing change).
4.2.2 Fitting the stator
Four plates on the frame enable the unit to be fitted to a
skid.
The fixing bolts must support the forces created by the
static and dynamic loads.
The machine may be positioned by means of 4 dowel pins.
The dowel pins make later realignment easier. (The use of
pins is optional).
The machine may be aligned through the use of 4 jackingscrews. These jacking-screws allow the machine to be
positioned according to the various axes.

CAUTION :
ALL THE LOCKING DEVICES PAINTED RED OR WITH
RED STICKER MUST BE REMOVED.
The end of the shaft is protected from corrosion. Clean it
before coupling.

CORRECTION
The correct locating of the parts must be obtained by

The double-bearing machines are mounted with bearings
(ball or roller) or Sleeve bearings. The axial clearance of
the bearings (if the machine has Sleeve bearings) must be
distributed as well as possible, taking into account the axial
thermal expansion. The Anti friction-bearing machines with
a positioning bearing (standard machine) do not have axial
play.
The machines are delivered with the rotor mechanically
centered (axially and radially) in relation to the stator.

4.3.2 Two bearings machine alignment

4.3.3 Single bearing machine alignment

a) machines without axial end play (standard)


The alignment must take the tolerances of the coupling
into account. A misalignment, acceptable by the coupling,
must not create an excess load on the bearing subsequent
to the axial and radial stresses outside the tolerances of
said bearing.

a) General points
The alignment consist also to get the rotor of the
synchronous machine coaxial to its stator

Shafts alignment limits to follow:


Angular error
0.01 mm
100 mm

0.08 mm

To check the alignment, there are different methods: the


"double concentricity" method is described in the
"alignment procedure" chapter 4.3.4.

"A" et "B" give the shaft line alignment


"D" et "E" give the alignment of the stator regarding the
rotor. Because of the engineering of the synchronous
machine the only requested adjustment is "C".

b) machines with axial end play


The alignment must be performed using the same method
as for a machine having no axial end play.

b) Single bearing machine except A56 equipped with


anti friction bearing
applicable to all machines; except A56 equipped with anti
friction bearing

CAUTION:
THE ROTOR AXIAL LOCATION MUST BE CHECKED TO
AVOID ANY MAGNETIC OFFSET

It is imperative to position the rotor axially in relation to the


stator in order to achieve correct magnetic centring of the
rotor in the stator.

CAUTION:
THE FAN THRUST OF THE ELECTRICAL MACHINE
MUST BE HELD THROUGH THE COUPLING.
A needle fitted on the drive end side bearing must face a
groove machined on the shaft. If the needle is missing the
distance "A" (distance from the groove up to the first
bearing part) is stamped on the shaft enabling checking.

Single-bearing machines are delivered by the ACEO


factory with the rotor centered mechanically (axially and
radially) in relation to the stator.

Carry out the alignment by moving the machine assembly
by means of lifting-screws mounted on the brackets (see
alignment procedure below). Use shims in order to obtain
proper alignment.
The centering of the rotor in relation to the stator should be
checked by measuring the concentricity of the shaft in
relation to the bearing. After having tightened the fastening
screws completely, the rotor-stator alignment must be
better than 0.05 mm axis-to-axis (that is 0.1 mm reading).
Shafts alignment limits (regarding the drive):

The centering of the rotor in relation to the stator should be


checked by measuring the concentricity of the shaft in
relation to the end ring of the stator. After having tightened
the fastening screws definitively, the rotor-stator alignment
must be better than 0.05 mm from axis to axis (that is 0.1

6.2 MECHANICAL MAINTENANCE
To obtain additional information on the maintenance of
sub-assemblies, refer to the chapters dealing with the subassemblies concerned.
6.2.1 Air gap check
a) Double bearing machine
Verification of the air gap is not necessary. The rotor is
mechanically centered by its construction. Even after
dismantling and reassembling the machine, the rotor will
return to its position without verification of the air gap.
b) Single bearing machine
When the machine is delivered, the rotor is mechanically
centered in the stator (see chapter on alignment). After
dismantling the machine, it will be necessary to center the
rotor in the stator, by using the two half-shells (delivered
with the machine) as explained in the chapter 4.3.3.

If you do not have 1/2 shells, use a dial indicator to check


the concentricity between the shaft (machined surface)
and the front bearing (machined surface).
6.2.2 Bolts tightening
Check the tightening of the sleeve bearing fixing bolts
(refer to chapter 2.4)

Check the tightening of the rotating diodes (refer to chapter


2.2.4)
Check the tightening of the terminal box accessories (refer
to chapter 2.18)
If no torque value is specified into the concerned chapter
the following values can be used

6.2.3 Cleanliness
The whole machine must be kept clean.
CAUTION :
ALL THE CLEANING PERIODS INDICATED IN THIS
MANUAL MAY BE CHANGED (INCREASED OR
DECREASED) ACCORDING TO SITE CONDITIONS

7.4 CLEANING THE WINDINGS
7.4.0 General points
The cleaning of the winding is an heavy service operation
which has to be engaged only if necessary.

The cleaning of the windings become necessary as soon


as the polarization index is not satisfactory (refer to chapter
6.3.2)
7.4.1 Coil-cleaning product
a) General
CAUTION:
SOLVENTS, WHICH ARE HIGHLY CHLORINATED AND
SUBJECT TO HYDROLYSIS IN DAMP ATMOSPHERES
ARE PROHIBITED. THEY QUICKLY BECOME
ACIDIFIED, PRODUCING CORROSIVE AND
CONDUCTIVE HYDROCHLORIC ACID.
CAUTION:
DO NOT USE TRICHLORETHYLENE,
PERCHLORETHYLENE, OR TRICHLORETHANE

Avoid mixtures sold under various trademarks which often


contain white spirit (which evaporates too slowly) or
chlorinated products (which are likely to become acidified).

7.4.2 Cleaning the stator, rotor, excitation system and


diodes
a) using specific chemical product
The insulation and the impregnation system are not
damaged by solvents (see the list of authorized products
above).

It is essential to avoid entry of cleaning agents into the


slots. Apply the product with a brush, sponging frequently
in order to avoid accumulation in the housing. Dry the
winding with a dry cloth. Allow the traces to evaporate
before reassembling the machine.
CAUTION:
AFTER CLEANING THE GENERATOR, DRYING IS
IMPERATIVE TO RECOVER THE CORRECT WINDING
INSULATION
b) Rinsing using soft water
Hot soft water (less than 80C) used under pressure (less
than 20 bars) can be used.
CAUTION:
AFTER CLEANING THE GENERATOR, DRYING IS
IMPERATIVE TO RECOVER THE CORRECT WINDING
INSULATION

CAUTION:
DO NOT USE ALKALINE PRODUCTS. THEY ARE
DIFFICULT TO RINSE AND CAUSE REDUCTION OF
INSULATION RESISTANCE BY FIXING THE HUMIDITY
b) Cleaning products
Use pure de-greasing and volatile agents which are welldefined such as :
Gasoline (without additives)
Toluene (slightly toxic ) ; inflammable
Benzene or benzine (toxic ; inflammable)
Ciclohexaire (non-toxic; inflammable)

7.5 DRYING THE WINDING


7.5.0 General points
All electric machines must be stored under dry conditions.
If a machine is placed in damp surroundings, it must be
dried before it is put into service. Units operating
intermittently or placed in areas with high temperature
variations, are exposed to dampness and must be dried
very thoroughly if necessary.

If necessary conduce an other drying period...

U1
U2
V1

W2

DC

7.5.1 Drying method


a) General points
During the drying operation measure the winding insulation
and the polarization index each 4 hours.

V2

A - Stator
B - Rotor
C - Exciter

To survey the insulation progress, record the measured


values and plot the obtained progress function of the time.
When the insulation value becomes constant, the machine
can be considered as dry.
When the resistance is constant, it may be assumed that
the machine is dry. This operation may take up to 24
hours, depending on the size of the machine and on the
degree of dampness. This may even take up to 72 hours.
CAUTION:
TAKE FIRE-PREVENTION MEASURES DURING THE
DRYING OF THE MACHINE.
ALL THE CONNECTIONS MUST BE TIGHTENED.

7.6 RE-VARNISHING
NOTE:
WHATEVER VARNISH IS USED, NEW VARNISHING IS
NOT RECOMMENDED, SINCE IT TRAPS AND
PERMANENTLY RETAINS THE CONDUCTIVE CARBON
PARTICLES. THE ORIGINAL VARNISHES HAVE A
LONG SERVICE LIFE AND DO NOT NEED TO BE
STRENGTHENED.

b) Drying generator stop


The procedure " Drying generator in rotation" should be
preferred to the following one if it is possible to run the
generator at its nominal speed

Several thermometers must be positioned onto the winding


and the temperature must not exceed 75C (167F). I f one
of the thermometers exceeds this value, immediately
reduce the heating effect.
Dry by using an external source of heat, for example,
heaters or lamps.
Leave an opening for an exhaust for the damp air.
c) Drying generator in rotation
Disconnect the machine from the mains

Short circuit the machine stator at the machine terminals


Disconnect the Voltage regulator and short-circuit the
booster.
Install an amp meter on the short-circuited winding.
Run the machine at its nominal speed (to air cool the
machine)
Energized the machine (exciter field) using an separate ex
citation source. Use a DC source (batteries ...)
Adjust the excitation current to get the nominal current at
the stator (machine armature).
Warm up during 4 hours, stop and leave it to cool down
(winding temperature < 50C)

AVR MODEL R610


GENERAL DESCRIPTION

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1) APPLICATION

5) SPECIFICATIONS :

- The AVR model R600 can be used with brushless selfexcited type generators, "SHUNT", "SHUNT with BOOSTER"
or "PMG" or AREP excitation. In case of "SHUNT with
BOOSTER the booster current is totally monitored by the
AVR.
- The AVR is able to ensure, depending of its constitution,
solo operation, parallel operation between equivalent
generators or parallel operation with the mains with cos or
KVAR regulation.

Sensing voltage
: 100/110Vac 50Hz
: 120/130Vac 60Hz
: 380/420Vac 50Hz
: 430/450Vac 60Hz

Power supply
(maximum 180Vac 50/60Hz)
Shunt+Booster = power transformers
AREP = auxiliary windings
PMG = external generator

- The AVR model R610 is composed of electronic cards which


are included in a half rack 19" .
- An empty slot located on the left of the rack allows future
optional cards to be added without any internal wiring
modification.
- The rear flat cable (BUS 64 points) is given more long as it
can be connected to an optional interface terminal block
which gives all the internal test points or in the future the
possibility to connect another rack if the cards number will
become too important.

Field output
: 8 Amperes nominal, 20Amp maximum during 10s on
6 minimum

Accuracy
: +/-1% of the means of the three phases on linear load
and without droop

Voltage setting range


: +/-5% of the nominal voltage by means of external
optional potentiometer .

3) INTERCONNECTIONS

Droop setting range


: - 7% of the nominal voltage at cos =0

Under-frequency protection
: Adjustable threshold and slope from V/Hz to 2V/Hz

Field ceiling
: 110% of If nominal permanently, unlocked in case of
voltage decrease

Protection
: Heat sink overheating, exciter short-circuit

Alarm output
: Heat sink overheating, too much ceiling unlocked time

Environment
: Maximum ambient temperature -10C to +50C
: Fitting in control panel without excessive vibrations

2) DESCRIPTION

- External interconnections are located on the top of the rack


in form of two terminal blocks:
- A power / voltage terminal block (16 terminals, two with
fuses )
- A command / control terminal block (24 terminals)
- A conventional wiring connect this terminal blocks to the
power block fitted on a heat sink and also to the "generator
I/O" and "mains I/O" to give an interface with the flat cable
BUS 64 points.
- In the same manner a 8 points connector connects directly
the driver card to the power block.

4) OPTIONAL CARDS
- Basically the AVR allows voltage regulation with reactive
sharing when paralleling with other machines.

1) FUNCTIONAL

- P1

- This card elaborates from the three phases voltage image


of the generator given by the "ALTERNATOR I/O" :
-A rectified, calibrated, filtered voltage Vm proportional to
the stator voltage of the generator. Vm could be affected by
droop depending of adjustment.
- A voltage function of the generator frequency, a part of
which gives the reference set point named Vref.
- Vref is a constant above the underfrequency threshold set
point (signaled by LED) and decreases below this threshold
following a function depending of the position of the strap
CV1:
- In fixed V/Hz mode
-In adjustable kVolt / Hz (see curve below)

1) FUNCTIONAL

2) ADJUSTMENTS

- This card, from Vm (machine voltage image), Vref


(voltage set point) and complementary informations given
in the following, elaborates the voltage command of the
power driver card, which is the field current set point.

- P1

- Three operating modes are possible, depending of


external informations :
- Solo operation or parallel
equivalent machines (1 Fonction)
( This is the normal mode)

operation

between

- Parallel operation with the mains with power factor


(COS) or KVAR regulation (2 Fonction)
( Only if COS / KVAR card is fitted)
- Operation in voltage equalization mode between
machine and mains before coupling (3 Fonction)
( Only if "MAINS I / O" card is fitted)
1F : Machine image Vmis compared with the sum of
Vref, Pext, etc voltages depending of used options and the
resultant voltage (error voltage ) feeds the PID.
2F : When cos cmd input is activated (+Vcc), the
machine voltage Vm is compared to the voltage given from
the cos/KVAR card and the result (error voltage ) feeds
the PID.
3F : When U/U cmd input is activated (+Vcc), the
machine voltage Vm is compared to the voltage given from
the "MAINS I / O" card and the result (error voltage ) feeds
the PID.
A compensation external input, given for specific
applications is added to the error voltage and the resultant
voltage is the real PID input. Each branch (P, I, D) of the
PID, independently adjustable from the others, set the time
constants of the AVR in regard to the generator. The
integrator branch can be short-circuited, for example when
starting-up.
These three outputs are added, limited to 10Vdc and
then give the field current set voltage of the "automatic
channel" which is the driver card input.
The minimum value of this signal can be limitated to avoid
total loss of excitation of the generator. In case of parallel
operation with the mains (cos/KVAR card), this limitation
is a function of the active power supply by the generator,
this information is given by the COS / KVAR card.

DRIVER CARD

DRIVER CARD
1) FUNCTIONAL

2) ADJUSTMENTS

This card controls from "AUTO" and "MANU" voltage


reference and some additional informations detailed in the
following, the exciter field current supply by the regulator
and the booster (if used).
- Three operating mode are possible, depending of external
informations :
- Normal mode with 110% ceiling of If nominal.
- Ceiling unlocked mode (160% minimum Ifield
nominal) depending of the command input from the PID
card with limited delay and alarm output in case of
sustained undervoltage.
- Maximum ceiling mode if the synchronisation voltage
desappears ( machine short-circuit) with limited (adjustable)
field current.
- The "AUTO" or "MANU" reference voltage depending
of the associated command input and also of the active
limitations, is compared to the field current measurement
and gives the error voltage which is after integration,
compared to a sawtooth feed by the synchronisation
voltage. The output of this stage is a variable duty cycle
signal which controls the power transistors throught
isolating optocouplors.

- P1
- P2
- P3
- P4

- This card can be supplied in three manners :


- From the general supply of the rack in normal operation
- Throught an isolated supply taken from the field voltage
during start-up or generator short-circuit. (Rack supply not
present)
- Directly from the field voltage for power transistor
command.
The permanent limitation (110% de Iexc nominal) can
be modified by the following conditions:
- Field ceiling unlocking on machine undervoltage
condition. It inccreases from 110% (normal operation) to a
minimum of 160% of the nominal field current during an
adjustable time delay and then go back to 110%. An alarm
is activated if this undervoltage is sustained afterward.
- Field ceiling unlocking on synchronisation voltage
abcence. It increases to the maximum given by the setting
of P7.
-Field ceiling limitation caused by power heatsink
overheating. On thermocontact action the ceiling is reduced
to a value given by the setting of P8.

- P5
- P6
- P7
- P8

: Integrator time constant adjust.


: Unlocked ceiling time delay adjust. (generally 5s)
: Alarm time delay adjust after ceiling unlock.
: Permanent ceiling value adjust
(generally 1,1If nominal)
: HALL sensor range adjust.
: Initial ramp-up adjust
: Maximum field current adjust (machine short-circuit
)
: Maximum fieeld current in case of heatsink
overheating.

COS KVAR OPTIONAL CARD

COS KVAR OPTIONAL CARD


1) FUNCTIONAL

2) ADJUSTMENTS

This option allows the parallel operation coupling with


the mains with P.F or KVAR regulation (also called 2F)
This card elaborates from generator current and
voltage informations, the following signals:
- An image of the reactive current of the generator
named (KVAR) used for KVAR regulation.
- An image of the phase shift between the voltage and
the current of the generator named () used for cos (PF)
regulation.
- An image of the active current of the generator
named (KW) used for compensate the minimum Ifield limit
of the PID card.

- P1
- P2
- P3
- P4
- P5
- P6
- P7

- The principle of measurement is to sample and hold


the instantaneous value of the current when the
instantaneous voltage reaches zero on positive slope.
- First the current image of the stator current is filtered
and used directly for KVAR measure. Then it is derivated
and used for KW measure. And then it is amplified to obtain
square waves and integrated to give a sawtooth used to
measure.
- The voltage image is phase-shifted to compensate the
phase shift of the current input filter and after amplification
is fed to a monostable which gives the pulse signal (about
100s) used by all the sample and hold circuits.
- KVAR and values are compared with an internal
and external (if used) setting and the difference is send to
the PID card as an error signal. An external contact control
an analog switch to select what information between KVAR
and will be regulated.
- Three informations (, , KVAR) can be used as
an alternative droop for solo operation.
- gives no droop at cos=1 and the voltage
decreases at lagging PF.
- gives no droop at the cos setting and the voltage
decreases at more lagging PF and opposite for more
leading PF.
- KVAR gives no droop at the KVAR value setting and
the voltage decreases with more KVAR and increases if
less.
- The selection between these is made by mean of
jumper (CAV) on the card. (internal)

Manual mode 2 OPTIONAL CARD


1) FUNCTIONAL

2) ADJUSTMENTS

This card elaborates from internal setting (PO2) and


external setting informations, the Ifield command signal
given to "MANU" channel of the driver card.
- The Ifield output signal is limited or reduced if the
generator voltage exceeds the limitation value sets by the
potentiometer P01 (trip of the main breaker on load for
example ).
- This case of operation is indicated by the LED "LIMIT"
and the Ifield setting must be decreased to a point under
control.

- P1
- P2
- P3
- P4

- On MANU operation, the difference between MANU


output and AUTO channel output gives a compensation
signal which is used to compensate the PID to have always
the MANU and AUTO channels outputs identical. With this
circuit a smooth switching between MANU to AUTO is
possible and operation will go back to the AUTO channel
own settings.
- The ceiling can be unlocked on this operation, that is why
it can be necessary to wait some seconds after the
switching to return on MANU operation.
- On AUTO operation, these two channels are also
monitored and the difference is indicated by three LEDs.

Mains P.F Regulation OPTIONAL CARD

Mains P.F Regulation OPTIONAL CARD


1) DESCRIPTION
This card is used when the P.F or KVAR regulation is
wanted not at the generator terminals but at the mains
input. For this a P.F or KVAR sensor with 4-20mA output is
necessary and it must be located at the place where the
regulation must be made.

2) FUNCTIONAL
This card elaborates from setting informations and 420mA signal image of P.F (or KVAR) of the mains, the
errorvoltage dending to the PID of the PID card.
- The error signal have an ajustable gain and can be
inversed depending of the 4-20mA sensor output.
- This kind of operation is indicated by the LED "L3" and
by a contact (potential free) on the front connector.
- This operation is selected by mean of a contact on front
connectort and will be active on coupling when contact
between terminals 30,31 of main terminals will be closed. If
the contact
on front connector remains open, the
regulation (P.For KVAR) will be made at the generator
output, if it is closed, this is the 4-20mA information wich is
regulate function of the internal settings (P2 or channel 2
4-20mA) or/and external by the front connector.
-If during operation, the measuring 4-20mA signal
deseappears, control is automatically return to regulation
on the generator output side and this failure is indicated by
LED L1 ou L2 and by a contact on front connector .
- A second channel can be used as set point of the first
channel or as a remote adjustment of voltage, P.F or KVAR
on generator side. As on channel 1 if the 4-20mA
deseappears, output is inhibited and indicated by LED L2.
- A field current limitation is given, active when a contact
(front connector) is closed and indicated by LED L4. The
limitatio is adjusted by P7 (Limit 2 set) and can be set
between a maximum value preset by P7 on driver card and
a minimum value preset by P8 on driver card.
- A signaling contact on the front connector gives (if they
are used) the indication that one or more of the digital
potentiometers are at maximum position .

1) FUNCTIONAL

2) ADJUSTMENTS

- A voltage, image of the stator current of the machine, fed


from the "ALTERNATOR I / O" card is rectified, filtered and
compared to a reference voltage. The error signal gives a
voltage correction which is added to the main PID input to
maintain the stator current equal to the adjusted value.
- The reference voltage is applied with an initial ramp
ajustable from 0,5 to about 4s.
- A front LED signals stator current limitation operation.

- P1
- P2
- P3

- When this card is used for soft-start operation, the AVR


power transformer must be fed from a separate source
during the start operation and can be switched on the
generator output when the voltage have reached the
nominal value. The switching must be as fast as possible
(by relay , not by manual switch)

AVR MODEL R610


START - UP

START - UP
1) STARTING WITH MANUAL MODE CARD

- E02 must short-circuit the booster output (if used)


(terminals 7 and 8 of AVR) and is closed for de-energizing.

4) ADJUSTMENTS
CAUTION
Never energize the AVR when the driver card
is removed. An overvoltage can appear and
the power transistor can be damaged

- Refer also to card descriptions.


- The AVR is normally preset in factory.
- The nominal voltage can be set by Vref (P5) on sensing
card. Fine adjustment can be made by an external voltage
potentiometer (10K), (terminals 21,22,23)

- For initial start-up, the best is to use the manual mode for
testing the sensing wires between the generator and the
AVR.

-If an adjustment must be moved, note carefully


original setting for resetting in case of problems.

- For this it is necessary to have a manual mode card


plugged in the AVR. If not, see directly 2.

- If the strap V/Hz of sensing card is on kV/Hz position, the


original setting is V/Hz and can be changed between V/Hz
and 2V/Hz by potentiometer P4.

- Switch the manual card on ON (switch in front of card).

the

- Set the potentiometer P2 on manual card maximum CCW,


start the prime mover up to the nominal speed.

-The stability is adjusted with the machine in factory . If


necessary, the response time can be changed by the
setting of potentiometer P4 of PID card.

- Turn slowly the potentiometer CW to obtain the nominal


voltage.

- Other settings are difficult to adjust without specific


electronics equipments. It is better to not change them.

- Check the presence and the value of the three phases at


the AVR terminal block ( terminals 1, 2, 3 )

5) FIELD FLASHING

- Set the voltage to 5% above the nominal voltage.


- Check that the voltage between terminal 39 and 20 of the
AVR terminal block is about one volt.
- If yes, switch off the manual operation in the front of
manual card.
- The voltage must reach the nominal value.
- Go to 3

2) STARTING WITHOUT MANUAL MODE CARD


- start the prime mover up to the nominal speed..
- If the voltage does not appear, check wires between AVR
and the generator field (terminals 5 and 6 of AVR),and the
also the wires between AVR and power transformer
(terminals 14,15 (and 16 if used) of AVR. Check also the
fuse inside the terminal 14,16 of AVR terminal block.
- If the voltage is too hight, check that the sensing voltages
at the terminals 1, 2, 3 of the AVR terminal block are
present.
- Adjust the nominal voltage with Vref (P5) of the sensing
card for the middle position of the external voltage
potentiometer (if used).

- Generally, field flashing is not necessary, but in some


cases like long stop time or fault trip, it can be possible that
the voltage does not appear naturally.
In this case, connect a 12Vdc to 24Vdc voltage source to
the terminals 4 and 8 of AVR terminal block, + to 4 for a
short time and remove it when the voltage increases.

6) PARALLEL OPERATION(1F)
- The generator voltages must be as equal as possible.
- Same for the droop. If it is not possible to measure it, set
the potentiometers P1 of the sensing cards all in the same
position. (middle set for example). If the droop setting is
made from cos/KVAR card (when used), see notice NT
1950080.
- The reactive currents (KVAR) must be shared, immediatly
after coupling, even the KW are not shared.
- If, immediatly after coupling, the current increases
abnormally, check if the parallel CT wires are not reversed.
( 9 et 10 of AVR terminal block)
- If the coupling is OK but if when the load increases, the
cos or the current have an abnormal value, check that
the sensing phases at the input of the AVR are right
connected. (U, V, W respectively to the terminals 1, 2, 3 if
clockwise rotation or W, V, U, if counter clockwise rotation)

3) DE-ENERGIZING (optional)
- External contacts E01 and E02 must be used.
- E01 must be serie with terminal 14,15 of AVR (power
input) and is opened for de-energizing.

START - UP
7) PARALLEL WITH THE MAINS (2F)

9) MANUAL OPERATION (if used)

- The generator and mains voltages must be as equal as


possible. (see GENERATOR/ MAIN I/O card manual). The
contact between terminals 30, 31 of AVR terminal block
must be closed at the same time as the coupling and
will remain closed as long as the generator is connected to
the mains.
It will be open when parallel between
generators.

-If a manual mode card is used, it is possible to control


directly the field current of the generator.
- In automatic mode, adjust the potentiometer P2 on
manual mode card to have the LEDs "HIGHT" and "LOW"
off and the LED OK ligthing. At this time the manual setting
is equal to the automatic channel control.

- If, immediatly after coupling, the current increases


abnormally, check if the parallel CT wires are not reversed.
( 9 et 10 of AVR terminal block)
- If the coupling is OK but if when the load increases, the
cos or the current have an abnormal value, check that
the sensing phases at the input of the AVR are right
connected. (U, V, W respectively to the terminals 1, 2, 3 if
clockwise rotation or W, V, U, if counter clockwise rotation)
- The PF value is normally factory set to 0.9 . It can be
adjust by mean of potentiometer P2 on cos/KVAR card or
by mean of an external potentiometer (10K-1W)
connected to AVR terminal block (24,25,26)
- If the KVAR regulation is required terminals 37 and 38
must be short-circuited and the KVAR can be set by mean
of potentiometer P1 on cos/KVAR card or by mean of an
external potentiometer (10K-1W) connected to AVR
terminal block (27,28,29)

- Switch on front of manual card on position "ON" gives


control to the manual channel and the field current is
adjusted by potentiometer P2.
- This mode can be used when initial start-up of the
generator, to make test after problems or when operating
with the mains. It cannot be used when solo operation
because it is not possible to follow the load variations.
- When coupling with the mains on load, if trip of the
generator occurs, an overvoltage may occurs due to the
fact that the field current setting is too hight regarding the
load of the generator. On this case, an internal circuit of the
card decreases the field current to limit the overvoltage
approximatively to 110% of nominal, the voltage in this
case can be unstable but protect faster the equipments.
LED "LIMIT" on front of the card will light. The setting of
field current must be reset manually to the no load value
and the LED "LIMIT" will switch off.

-For droop setting, see notice NT 1950080.

8) VOLTAGE EQUALISATION (3F)


- The following procedure must be made one time to take
account of the mains transformer primary/secondary ratio.
- At no load and mains voltage present at terminals
11,12,13 of the AVR terminal block.
- Short circuit terminals 31,32 of the AVR terminal block
- Adjust P1 of MAIN I/O card to have generator and mains
voltage as equal as possible.
- Remove the strap between terminals 31,32 of the AVR
terminal block.
- The initial setting is made.
In normal operation the contact between terminals 31,32 of
the AVR terminal block must be closed with synchronizer
operation and can be opened after coupling.
