Product Overview
The Basler DECS250‑LN1CN1N is a full‑featured microprocessor‑based digital excitation control system for synchronous generators. It delivers high‑precision automatic voltage regulation, field current regulation, power factor and VAR control. Integrated generator protection, built‑in synchronizer, event logging and multiple communication interfaces enable stand‑alone or network‑connected genset operation. The LN1CN1N ordering variant features conformal coating for harsh industrial environments, suitable for utility, industrial and marine generator installations.
Series
DECS‑250 family includes multiple ordering variants differing by power stage, coating, communication and I/O options. It serves as an upgrade and drop‑in replacement for legacy DECS‑200 excitation controllers.
