Frequently asked questions

What voltage range does the EA16 AVR support?

It supports 170–510 VAC for sensing input, selectable via DIP switch for 220V or 440V systems.

How do I adjust the output voltage?

Use the DIP switch to select voltage range, then adjust the external voltage trim potentiometer (VR1, VR2) for ±5% adjustment.

What is the over excitation protection feature?

It prevents damage from accidental detachment of sensing wires or incorrect voltage settings by gradually shutting down excitation voltage.

How do I troubleshoot low residual voltage?

Check field polarity, ensure all terminals are connected, and if needed, perform field flashing by applying DC voltage to F+ and F− with a current-limiting resistor.
