REIVAX IS AWARDED GE EX2100 UPGRADE CONTRACT
Montreal (January 31st, 2024) – REIVAX NORTH AMERICA, a leading provider of excitation systems and digital governors, was awarded a contract to replace aging GE EX2100 excitation controls.
The EX2100 system was installed in 2009 and technical support and spares were becoming difficult to acquire. While teh power section was in good condition, the diagnostics for the control section was lacking ease of use. For this reason, the customer decided to replace the EX2100 excitation controls with REIVAX RTX Power controls while maintaining the existing power section.
Under the contract REIVAX will be providing a new RTX Power excitation control panel with redundant controllers and I/O units as well as new SCR bridge interfaces. The existing SCR bridges, AC breaker, bus bars and discharge circuit will be maintained.
REIVAX has a wide expertise in “front-end” control upgrades of other OEM equipment, including excitation systems from ABB, Basler, GE, Andritz and Prime Power/Siemens. There are over 150 front-end control upgrades installed with REIVAX excitation controllers.
“REIVAX new RTX Power excitation front-end control upgrade will solve the customer’s problem of parts obsolescence and support, while at the same time providing the customer with tools to easily perform model validation testing on their own” said Mike Wallin, CEO and President of REIVAX NORTH AMERICA
