Hybrid regulator with encapsulated housing and Hybrid regulator with encapsulated housing and integrated circuitry, stand-alone design
The job of a hybrid regulator is to maintain the alternator voltage at a specific level for all engine speeds and loading conditions. By changing the duration of the periods when it is switched on or off, an average exciter voltage is produced. This leads to a change in the magnetic field in the exciter winding and thus alters the induction produced in the stator winding.
This training system conveys the functions and operation of a hybrid regulator. The hybrid regulator is separately mounted on its own board for greater educational effectiveness. To aid set-up, the terminals for the exciter diodes of the transistor are designed as 4mm safety sockets.
