SECTION 2 : SUMMARY
The EA5K3 automatic voltage regulator is a direct
replacement for small brush type generators from 3 to
7.5 KW. This AVR employs an enhanced closed-loop
feedback circuit, which greatly improves voltage
stability, also added is a new VOLT adjustment pot, not
available in the original. This new AVR significantly
improves generator performance.
SECTION 3 : WIRING & ADJUSTMENT
3.1 Figure 1, show the plug connections numbered 1,
2, 3 and 4.
3.2 Line 1 (white) and Line 2 (green) are the sensing
input lines, they are used to match the generator
output voltage (115 / 230 Vac) Some generators
have an independent sensing connections, If this
is your case, open wire 2 (green) and reconnect
to its matching connector plug.
3.3 Line 3 (blue) and Line 4 (blue) are the AVR
Power Input terminals.
3.4 The independent red (+ Positive) and white wire
( Negative) ending in spade terminals attach to
the generators slip rings (F+ and F).
3.5 Moving the voltage adjustment potentiometer
(VOLT) located on the back and center of the
AVR changes the output voltage +/- 15%; moving
it clockwise increases voltage and moving it
counter-clockwise decreases voltage.
WARNING
Overly field flashing may damage the AVR or
generator excitation winding.
Please make sure you have read and understand
the contents of the instruction manual prior to
installation. Incorrect wiring connection may
result in irreversible damage to the product and
other equipments.

ATTENTION
1. AVR can be mounted directly on the engine,
genset, switchgear, control panel, or any
position that will not affects operation. For
dimension reference, please see Figure 2.
2. All voltage readings are to be taken with an
average-reading voltmeter Meggers and
high-potential test equipment must not be
used. Use of such equipment could damage
the AVR.
3. Secure all wiring connection. Do not install
AVR at a place with high vibrations to prevent
loose connections. For safety avoid contact
with the AVR case while in operation.
4. Improper setting of under-frequency
protection could cause the output voltage of
the unit to drop or become unstable under
with changes in load. Avoid making any
changes to the U/F setting unless necessary.
