DC Generator

DC generator is a device that converts electrical machine dynamic mechanical energy into electrical energy. DC generator produces DC current / direct current. DC generator can be divided into several types on the basis of a series of winding magnet or amplifier eksitasinya to anchor (anchor), types of DC generators, namely: 1. Generators separate amplifier 2. Shunt generator 3. Compound generator
1. DC Generator Construction
In general, the DC generator is made by using a permanent magnet with a 4-pole rotor, digital voltage regulators, protection against overload, excitation starters, rectifiers, bearings and generator house or the chassis, and the rotor. Figure 1 shows a cross-sectional images DC generator construction. DC generator consists of two parts, the stator, namely the DC machine is silent, and the rotor, which is part of a rotating DC machine. Stator part consists of: the framework of the motor, the stator windings, brush charcoal, bearing and terminal boxes. While the rotor consists of: commutator, rotor windings, the fan rotor and the rotor shaft.
