Kato’s PMG supplemental exciters have the following advantages:
  • Provides an economical and simple means of reliable, responsive and stable input power to the voltage regulator
  • Supplies continuous power to the exciter through the voltage regulator to maintain up to 300% short-circuit current from the alternator during a fault condition
  • Provides full exciter power, regardless of alternator voltage, for motor starting and is a separate voltage source for use external to the generator set, such as a tachometer and relay options
  • Reduces the effects of both conducted and radiated electromagnetic interference (EMI). With an EMI filter, the PMG and a Kato voltage regulator will meet the emissions requirements of Mil-Std. 461C, Part 9, Class C2
  • Enhances manual voltage control regulation as the PMG provides a more stable power source to the manual control
