Z-180 Governor/Synchronizer

Z-180 Governor/Synchronizer

The Clifton Labs Z-180 Governor/Synchronizer is a field-proven hydro turbine speed control and synchronizer.

Features

  • Digital phase lock loop control.
  • Speed signal derived from 120 VAC PTs. Speed sensing requires only 1 VAC permitting operation from residual rotor magnetization without generator excitation.
  • Governor matches phase of generator and bus for rapid and accurate synchronizing.
  • Selectable initial gate position for synchronizing
  • Output contact indicating phase and frequency match of generator and bus.
  • Governing modes selectable by external contacts. Can be easily controlled by manual switches, PLC, or SCADA system.
  • Gate position output connects directly to servo amplifier.
  • Separate gains for synchronizing and generating.
  • All parameters field adjustable while unit is running.
  • LCD display of program parameters, generator and bus frequencies, and phase difference.
