SDCS-FEX-2A
• Half controlled thyristor/diode bridge (1-Q)
• Microprocessor control, with the electronic system
being supplied by the armature converter.
• Construction and components have been designed
for an insulation voltage of 600 V AC.
• Fast-response excitation is possible with an appro-
priate voltage reserve; de-excitation takes place by
field time constant.

All field power converters (except for the SDCS-FEX-
1) are controlled by the armature converter via a serial
link with a speed of 62.5 kBaud. The link serves to
parameterize, control and diagnose the field power
converter and thus provides an exact control. Moreo-
ver, it enables you to control an internal (SDCS-FEX-
2A) and an external (DCF 601/602/503A/504A) or
two external field supply units (2 x DCF 601/602/
503A/504A). The respective software function required
is available in every DC power converter.
Field converter types
• Currents from 6 to 520 A.
• Minimum field current monitor.
• Integrated or external field power converter or in a
completely separate cabinet.
• 2-phase or 3-phase model.
• Fully digital control (except SDCS-FEX-1).
We recommend integrating an autotransformer in the
field power converter's supply to adjust the AC input
voltage to the field voltage, to reduce the voltage and
current ripple of the field.
