Basler Adds Cutler Hammer Gen-Set Excitation Line

摘要

In a move that significantly expands the top end of its static excitation systems used primarily in synchronous generators, Basler Electric, Highland, III., has acquired the Cutler Hammer Excitation Control product line. The product line includes a range of voltage regulators and static excitation systems, both standard and customized products, for small, medium and large generating systems. Also included were the excitation products and designs from the Westinghouse Distribution & Control business that became part of Cutler Hammer in 1994. "This acquisition allows Basler Electric to expand the scope of its excitation product line and supply excitation systems on larger generating systems," according to Basler Electric President and COO, Gary Dolbeare. "The Cutler Hammer product offerings will open up new opportunities at key utility and industrial generating facilities worldwide and complement Basler's strategic efforts to become a full line excitation system supplier."
