Automatic Voltage Regulators (servo-mechanical based stabilizers) are a very reliable and economical method of stabilizing mains voltage variations of up to 50% (both symmetrical up to ±25%, and asymmetrical up to +15% -35%). Our offering of voltage regulators are based on the control
of a motorized variable auto-transformer and are used for many applications in industrial plants, commerce, hospitals, electrical-discharge machining (EDM), electro erosion machining, CN-controlled machines with CO2 laser, water-jet cutting, big transmitters radio & TV stations, GSM & UMTS mobile phone plants for telecommunications, agricultural breeding plants, airports, numerical controls for machine tools and robotics, lifts, escalators and other horizontal transportation systems, oil industry & petrol stations, etc.
The Automatic Voltage Regulator consists in a fully electronic control circuit, a servomotor, a variable auto-transformer and a buck boost transformer on each phase. This system allows an independent regulation of the output voltage on each phase. The products use a proven technology that combines solid electrical engineering with electronic sensing and control to give a continuous, smooth and very stable output voltage with an accuracy of ±1%. The regulation of the output voltage is true RMS therefore the voltage regulator is unaffected by possible harmonic distortions present on the supplying line.
Servo-mechanical voltage stabilizers does not need particular maintenance or greasing of the moving parts, which depending on the application will require a small amount of low-level maintenance after a long period of time.
Even with moving parts, they are a far more reliable method of stabilizing voltages than electronic tap changing techniques, which due to surges and transients on the mains supply are prone to failure.
The long-life and low cost of ownership makes servo-mechanical stabilizers a very economical and reliable solution.
