Application Cases and Industry Value
In a recent case at a hydroelectric power station, the DECS-250E BASLER was installed to replace an older analog system that struggled to maintain voltage stability during sudden load increases. After installation, the DECS-250E BASLER provided immediate improvements, with voltage fluctuations reduced by 60%, and the plant experienced fewer downtime events. The system’s built-in protection features also safeguarded the generators from sudden overvoltages during storms, preventing costly damage.
Another example comes from a petrochemical complex where the DECS-250E BASLER was deployed in a co-generation facility. The system ensured constant voltage regulation, reducing the risk of voltage dips that could have caused shutdowns. With improved stability, the facility was able to enhance energy efficiency, reducing overall operating costs.
