Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document provides detailed information about the Shaft Current and Voltage Protection Relay (SCVP) system developed by KONČAR – Electrical Engineering Institute Inc. This system is designed to measure and analyze shaft voltage and current to prevent damage to generator bearings caused by shaft currents.

SCVP System Overview
The SCVP system includes an instrument transformer for shaft current measurement, sliding brushes for voltage and current measurement, and a processing/protection unit. It features real-time data processing, a database, web server, and HMI for monitoring and protection.

Installation and Connectivity
The system can be installed without interrupting machine operations and integrates with other systems like SCADA. It supports multiple user accounts and provides remote access through standard web browsers.

Protection and Analysis
The SCVP performs spectral analysis using an instrument transformer, allowing for custom alarm settings. It archives data for long-term analysis and trend monitoring.

Specifications
  • Current Input: Range 0 to ±50 mA, overload 300 mA, frequency up to 10 kHz.
  • Voltage Input: Range 0 to ±10 V, overload 250 V, frequency up to 10 kHz.
  • Digital/Relay Outputs: 2 to 8 outputs, max switching power 1500 VA.
  • Communication: Ethernet 10/100, supports Modbus TCP, FTP, IEC 60870-104, HTTP.
  • Power Supply: DC 80-370 V, AC 85-264 V, frequency 47-63 Hz.
  • Temperature Range: Operational -20°C to +70°C, storage -40°C to +85°C.


Measuring Sensors
The system uses an instrument transformer with a typical transfer ratio of 1:1000 and sliding brushes for current and voltage measurement.

Documentation and Software
Comprehensive documentation is provided for installation, maintenance, and usage. The software includes a local HMI and a web server for remote access, supporting multiple operating systems and devices.

Ordering Guide
The document outlines various SCVP versions and configurations, including inputs/outputs, sensors, services, and installation materials. Customers can customize their orders based on specific requirements.

Conclusion
The SCVP system is a globally recognized solution for monitoring and protecting generator bearings from shaft currents, offering advanced features for real-time analysis and long-term data management.

Operator panel - HMI (real time data, trends, spectrum, alarms , setup…) SHAFT CURRENT AND VOLTAGE PROTECTION Due to magnetic field asymmetry in the machine, voltage in the shaft can be induced, which, depending on the type of machine, its size and load, varies in amplitude and frequency composition. Low circuit impedance consisting of shaft, bearing, oil film and other structural components, can cause shaft current flow which leads to bearing destruction. Shaft Current and Voltage Protection Relay (SCVP) is used to measure/analyze shaft voltage and current that may damage the generator bearing....
