The REG216 is intended for the protection of generators and block transformers.
The modular hardware and software design allows for an extremely flexible installation. Simplicity of adaptation to the size of the primary system and the desired protection schemes is achieved through the combination of a software library and hardware modules. Economic solutions can thus be achieved in the full range of applications for which it is intended.
The REG216 software system offers a library of protective functions. Functions suitable for generator and transformer protection are listed in the table below.
Different degrees of redundancy can be selected. Availability and reliability of the protection can be chosen to suit the application by duplicating, e.g., auxiliary supply units of the whole system.
Standard interfaces make REG216 compatible with different process control systems. Data exchange with higher process control levels are possible, e.g. one-way reporting of digital states and events, measured values and protection parameters.
REG216 and REG216 Classic differ about the binary process connection：
- REG216 uses the E/A-module 216GD61a.
- The REG216 Classic uses the modules 216GE61 / 216GA61 and 216GA62.
