The UNITROL 5000 is the most powerful product in the ABB Switzerland
UNITROL® series of excitation systems. The microprocessor-based voltage
regulator uses the latest available technology. The development is based
on more than 40 years experience with semiconductor voltage regulators
and more than 15 years experience with microprocessor technology for
this application.

The following options are available:

AVR2 • Possibility to do maintenance work
on one power converter during the
operation of the system (with 5-pole

Software Tools for Commissioning and Maintenance
The same software tools that were used for the UNITROL F system are used
for the UNITROL 5000 system. These are the GAD tool and the CMT tool. Both
have proved themselves as outstanding software tools for these applications.
