WEG Next Generation High Speed Diode Wheel


This brochure introduces the WEG / EM Next Generation High Speed Diode Wheel, a proven, series-redundant design that delivers enhanced reliability, simplified serviceability, and robust performance for 2-pole generators.

Key Points

  • Direct replacement for legacy diode wheel designs.
  • Utilizes existing exciter stator and armature on 2-pole generators.
  • Eliminates fuses, nuisance fuse pin popping, and tube failures.
  • Suitable for both 50 Hz and 60 Hz generator applications.
  • Proven WEG-EM series redundant diode technology with over 10 years of field experience.
  • Simplified assembly and quick module replacement reduce downtime.
