Description
The AS440 is built with SMT surface-mount technology, the supply and sensing circuits have separate terminals, and excitation is taken from the stator winding or from an auxiliary winding if a steady-state short-circuit current is needed. It supports a droop current transformer for parallel operation and is standard on the S4 and HC5, and optional on the UC22 and UC27 (in the UC22/UC27 and HC4 datasheets it is named as standard). The AS480 operates from 100–264 V AC, 1 phase, 50–60 Hz, has an interface for the EBS boost system and is standard for the P0 and P1. The AS540 has an auxiliary winding interface and was formerly fitted to the S0 and S1, which now have the digital VITA 01. The frequency sensing circuit protects against operation at reduced speed, and the potting compound protects the board from moisture, salt and sand.
How to choose
The regulator is selected by generator. The AS440 is for the S4, HC4, HC5, UC22 and UC27, the AS480 for the P0 and P1, and the AS540 for the S0 and S1, where the digital VITA 01 is now fitted. If excitation comes from a PMG, the MX321, MX322, MX341 or MX342 are needed, and the VITA 05 gives a digital replacement. The manufacturer advises buying only original regulators from authorized dealers.
