A Heritage of Westinghouse Engineering Service Division (ESD).

AUTOMATIC VOLTAGE REGULATOR (AVR)

• Retrofit old or obsolete Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) into modern Solid State
  Electronic AVR.
• Retrofit old Rotary Excitation System to modern Static Excitation System.

BENEFITS
• Eliminate excitation DC generator
• Better response to voltage sag due to motor starting
• Reduced maintenance
• Increase plant availability




VOLTAGE REGULATOR

• Retrofit old or obsolete Magnetic Amplifier Type Voltage Regulator to modern
  Electronic Automatic Voltage Regulator for Generator.

BENEFITS
• Better voltage tolerance
• Faster voltage response
• Reduced maintenance
• Eliminate obsolete and expensive parts
• More reliable operation

PROTECTIVE RELAY
• Retrofit old or obsolete Protective Relay to modern Microprocessor Based
  Protective Relay System with optional upgrade to Bus Auto Transfer Scheme.

BENEFITS
• Prevent nuisance tripping
• Communications capability
• Improve tripping time, no impact on production
• Increase plant availability





SCR DRIVE RETROFIT

From existing DC and SCR Drive and DC Motor to AC VFD Drive and AC Motor.

REASONS
• Obsolete and expensive spare parts
• Unreliable
• Frequent Failure
• High Harmonics
• Electrical and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)

SOLUTIONS
• Retrofit to state of the art VFD and AC Motor
• Engineering study of existing DC Drive and Motor
• Engineering Design of VFD and AC Motor to suit existing mechanically driven load

BENEFITS
• Lower Losses
• Cost Savings
• Lower Harmonics Content
• Eliminate EMI
• More Reliable
• Eliminate Breakdown and Down Time
• Retrofit of bulk oil circuit breaker, minimum oil circuit
• Maximise Production Time




CIRCUIT BREAKER AND MOTOR STARTER

• Retrofit of bulk oil circuit breaker, minimum oil circuit breaker, air circuit breaker and
  contactor to vacuum circuit breaker and contactor.

BENEFITS
• Prevent sudden failure of old circuit breaker
• Cost is only a fraction of the price of a complete switchgear and cable replacement
• Retrofits can be carried out with minimum downtime and disruption to load
• Circuit breaker life can be extended for another 20 to 30 years
• In the case of frequently switcher circuit, vacuum contactor can be used in place
  of circuit breaker
• Protection and control system can be upgraded to include state-of-the-art
  technology using automatic transfer scheme and microprocessor based protective
  relays
• Modern switching devices are virtually maintenance free
• Progressive retrofits generate a valuable source of spare parts for breakers and
  mechanism retained in service
• Eliminate stocking of obsolete parts
