Description
Product Overview
The Kongsberg VCC-690 Voltage Converter Controller, part number 8100269, revision A1, is a marine power-management component designed for use in compatible Kongsberg generator protection and power management systems.
Installed in a main switchboard, the VCC-690 converts higher three-phase electrical voltages to lower, safer measurement and supply voltages for connected control equipment. It supports generator voltage monitoring and provides voltage signals for compatible generator protection and power management modules.
The VCC-690 is intended for marine generator control and switchboard applications where reliable voltage measurement is essential to power management, generator protection, and system operation. It is suitable for maintenance and replacement projects when the installed system requires the same model and revision-compatible hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the function of the Kongsberg VCC-690?
It converts high-voltage generator and switchboard signals into reduced-voltage signals for compatible generator protection and power management equipment.
Q2: What does the “690” designation mean?
It identifies the version configured for a 690 V AC primary voltage system, rather than the standard 440 V AC VCC configuration.
Q3: Which systems can use the VCC-690?
It is associated with compatible Kongsberg marine generator protection and power management architectures. Verify the installed system model and documentation before ordering.
Q4: Is the VCC-690 interchangeable with the VCC-440?
Not automatically. The primary voltage configuration differs. Confirm the switchboard voltage, system requirements, part number, and wiring before considering a replacement.
Q5: What should be checked before installation?
Verify part number 8100269, revision A1, the primary-voltage configuration, terminal connections, and compatibility with the associated protection and power management modules. Installation should be performed by qualified personnel using the manufacturer’s procedures.
