- Supports droop/isochronous control modes for stable parallel operation.
- Advanced Protection Mechanisms:
- Overcurrent, overload, and overtemperature protection (triggers alarms at >85°C).
- Automatic voltage regulation (AVR) to prevent voltage fluctuations.
- Flexible Control Modes:
- Manual/automatic switching for load distribution adjustment.
- Supports up to 16 generators in parallel with synchronized frequency/phase.
- Real-Time Monitoring:
- Logs operational data (speed, voltage, current) for diagnostics.
- Event recording with timestamps for troubleshooting.
- Modular Design:
- Compact DIN rail-mounted structure for space-saving installation.
- Hot-swappable modules to minimize downtime during maintenance.
Functional Highlights
- Generator Synchronization: Aligns phase and frequency of multiple generators for seamless grid connection.
- Load Shedding: Automatically sheds non-critical loads during peak demand to prevent system collapse.
- Black Start Capability: Enables startup of generators without external power supply in emergency scenarios.
- Data Acquisition: Transmits real-time metrics to SCADA systems via Modbus/CANopen for centralized monitoring.
Application Scenarios
- Power Generation Plants: Manages load sharing in thermal, hydro, and renewable energy systems (e.g., solar, wind).
- Oil & Gas Industry: Regulates power distribution in offshore platforms and pipeline compression stations.
- Data Centers: Ensures uninterrupted power supply by balancing loads across backup generators.
- Marine Propulsion: Controls generator outputs on ships and offshore vessels for stable operation.
- Industrial Automation: Optimizes power usage in manufacturing lines, mining equipment, and chemical processing plants.
Advantages
- Reliability: Designed for 24/7 operation in harsh environments (vibration, shock, EMI).
- Scalability: Supports expansion from single-generator setups to large-scale networks.
- Cost Efficiency: Reduces fuel consumption and maintenance costs through optimized load distribution.
- Compliance: Meets international standards such as IEC 61800-5-1 and ATEX for hazardous areas.
