2 EA07
SECTION 1 : SUMMARY
EA07 is a self excited Analogue type Automatic Voltage Regulator. The sensing and power inputs are independent and accept power input from the auxiliary winding. The wide voltage adjustment range fulfills any voltage adjustment requirements.
The EA07 is equipped with adjustable under frequency protection and adjustable over excitation voltage protection for preventing generator from over loading or over excitation.
Both protections status are indicated by two individual LED when protection is activated. Also the AVR has a built in EMI filter to prevent interference to the generator.

ATTENTION
1. AVR can be mounted directly on the engine, genset, switchgear, control panel, or any position that will not affects operation. For dimension reference, please see Figure 1.
2. All voltage readings are to be taken with an average-reading voltmeter Meggers and high-potential test equipment must not be used. Use of such equipment could damage the AVR.
3. Secure all wiring connection. Do not install AVR at a place with high vibrations to prevent loose connections. For safety do not touch the heat sink while in operation.
4. Improper setting of under-frequency protection could cause the output voltage of the unit to drop or become unstable under with changes in load. Avoid making any changes to the U/F setting unless necessary.

SECTION 3 : WIRING / ADJUSTMENTS
3.1 Field Excitation Wiring3 F+, 1 F–
3.1.1 Connect AVR terminal “3” to field “+”, connect AVR terminal “1” to the field “–”.
NOTE
The Exciter field resistance is between 10  100 ohm.
3.1.1 If field resistance is less than 10 ohm when generator is under full load and the field voltage is under the maximum output, please series a suitable wattage (W) resistor to have the overall field resistance to equal to 10 100 ohm.
3.2 Sensing Input4A, 5
The rated sensing input range is 90 to 350 Vac. If the generator voltage is greater than the rated, please connect through N (Neutral) to phase. (Reference from Figure 2).
3.3 Frequency Selection6, 5A
When the terminals 6 & 5A on the AVR are bridged, the system frequency is 60 Hz. In the contrary, when bridge is removed the system frequency is 50 Hz.
3.4 External Voltage Adjustment VR7, 5B
Connect a 100K ohm 1/2W voltage rheostat at VR terminals to enable a +/- 7% voltage adjustment from rated voltage.
* The terminals must be bridged when the external
voltage adjustment function is none required.
3.5 Power Input3A, 5C
The Power input range is 80 to 270 Vac, connecting from either main winding or auxiliary winding.
3.6 VOLT. Voltage Adjustment
User can adjust the generator voltage by rotating the VOLT potentiometer on the AVR. Rotate the potentiometer clockwise to increase voltage and decreasing when rotate counterclockwise. The voltage adjust rate is less than 1% when the power factor equals to 1 to 0.8 (PF 1 to 0.8) and frequency variation within 6%.
3.7 STAB. Stability Adjustment
3.7.1 Slowly and precise adjustment of STAB potentiometer can change the respond time between the AVR and generator. Inadequate adjustment will cause voltage instability and over adjusting will cause sudden overly voltage variation under heavy load.
3.7.2 Analogue type multi voltmeter is suggested when adjusting the voltage stability. Adjust the 「STAB potentiometer until the pointer on the multi
voltmeter is oscillating to its minimal.
3.8 Circuit Protection
3.8.1 AMP. Over Excitation Protection Adjustment (Overload protection).
Set the AMP Overload protection value
according to the generator maximum excitation voltage (40 – Max Vdc). When over excitation occurs maintain the status for a short period of time then decrease the generator voltage down to residual voltage. When the Over excitation protection is activated the O/E LED will illuminate, the higher the over excitation value is the shorter delay time becomes. The generator will require stopping operation to reset.
NOTE
When AMP potentiometer is adjusted fully clockwise, the Over Excitation protection will be disabled.
3.8.2 Hz. Under Frequency Protection Adjustment
Hz. Is used to set the under frequency
protection knee point. When the generator frequency declines to setting point, the generator voltage will also decrease in the same time to prevent high excitation current from damaging the AVR or the exciter.
Adjustment procedure :
(1) Start generator and let voltage build up. (2) Adjust engine frequency to the appropriate
low frequency value.
(3) Slowly adjust Hz. Potentiometer until the U/F
LED illuminates.
(4) Finally adjust the engine frequency until the
LED is turned off.
SECTION 4 : OPERATION PROCEDURE
4.1 Please confirm the follow condition before starting the generator :
4.1.1 Starting Setting
(1) Confirm if the AVR specification conforms to
the system requirements ? (2) Confirm the AVR wiring ? (3) Confirm correct frequency selected ? (4) Confirm the generator rated voltage with the
AVR sensing input ?

Figure 6 Manual Field Flash
(5) Adjust VOLT potentiometer fully
counterclockwise?
AdjustSTABpotentiometer to the center
position?
AdjustAMPpotentiometer fully clockwise?
4.1.2 Starting Generator (1) Reconfirm all setting and wiring.
ATTENTION
The AVR reading AC voltage are all average value.
(2) Start generator and adjust to rated frequency.
The first measured voltage value should be under the rated voltage. If not, then reconfirm the start setting.
(3) Slowly adjustVOLTpotentiometer to the
rated voltage, at this time the generator voltage may become unstable. Adjust the
STAB. potentiometer anticlockwise, until the oscillation stabilizes. Over adjustment
may cause short oscillation when load applied or load type varies.
SUGGESTION
Adjust the STAB. potentiometer to the point where the oscillation occurs and then adjust the potentiometer counterclockwise by 1/6 of rotation.
(4) If voltage can not be adjusted or to the rated
value, please check to see if the generator frequency is too slow (Under frequency protection activated). If residual voltage is below 5 Vac, then please execute field flashing to help build up the residual voltage.
(5) Make sure the generator and AVR are both
under normal operation conditions.
(6) The voltage adjustable range should be +/-
1% under no load or full load. If the adjustable range in not within such range, please check the below :
A. Generator under frequency (Lower than low
frequency protection knee point).
B. Severely deformed generator output wave
form.
C. Capacitive load over ratio (Power factor in
lead). D. Change the AVR and restart. E. Under over excitation voltage protection
(Overload protection).
SECTION 5 : FIELD FLASHING
When the regulator is installed correctly but the generator is failed to generate power. Besides carbon brushes were worn out, here are two possible causes below.
5.1 The polarity of field is inverse
Solution:Exchange the connection of F+ and F-.
5.2 The residual voltage is less than 5 Vac, Solution 1
5.2.1 Shut down generator, disconnect the wiring between AVR and generator then flash the field. Flashing duration = 3 seconds. (See wiring in Figure 6)
Resistor 3 – 5 ohms for full wave AVR Resistor 5 – 10 ohms for half wave AVR
Warning!! Over field flashing may damage
the field winding of generator.
5.2.2 Restart generator and measure the residual voltage by AC Voltmeter, if it is still less than 5 Vac, repeat the previous process, after several times, the residual voltage still cannot be built, Kutai EB500 is strongly recommended, see Figure 6.

WARNING
Overly field flashing may damage the AVR or generator excitation winding.
Please make sure you have read and understand the contents of the instruction manual prior to installation. Incorrect wiring connection may result in irreversible damage to the product and other equipments.
5.3 Maintenance
Regular maintenance to make sure the AVR surface is clean and free from oil or moisture. All connection terminals and wirings must be firmly tightened and no signs of visible oxidation or erosion.
