Stamford Automatic Voltage Regulator - AVR MX341

The MX341 is an analogue, 2-phase sensing, permanent magnet generator (PMG) powered automatic voltage regulator (AVR) providing isolation from the effects of non-linear loads. It has improved motor starting performance and sustained short circuit current.
The MX341 is provided as standard for the STAMFORD P6, STAMFORD P7 and STAMFORD S7 alternators.
