Sanyar
Generator Excitation and Protection System
Sanyar’s product is a generator excitation and protection system based on the most up-to-date technology in the world, which is designed to control and protect synchronous generators. This system can include a wide range of generators in terms of size and type by using modular design, the possibility of redundant configuration and also choosing a wide range of thyristor/IGBT modules. Accordingly, Sanyar is suitable for controlling generators with an excitation current of up to 4000 amps and for all types of gas, steam, water, combined, and atomic cycle units
Sanyar is a control system based on PLC and can be implemented on all types of static and dynamic excitation systems (with exciter). This system can be connected to an excitation transformer (PPT) or permanent magnet generator (PMG) with a wide frequency range. The ability to customize is one of the prominent features of this product, which allows the customer to choose and order Sanyar’s features and capabilities according to their needs
