Situation
Auto Mains Failure (AMF) systems with remote monitoring capabilities are typically used as a standby power source, operating where grid power may be unreliable, or in applications where mains power cannot afford to be lost. The service provider can control and monitor the gen-set remotely from any location via the internet using the wide range of communication capabilities (when using the appropriate plug-in module), saving both time and money for maintenance.
ComAp Solution
MainsCompact NT continuously monitors the mains supply, and in the event of a failure, sends the signal to InteliCompact NT MINT to automatically starts the engine then switches the load to a standby gen-set. With the addition of a 4G/GPS plug-in module, the service provider can remotely monitor their standby gen-sets over the internet. ComAp’s InteliMonitor application can be used to monitor and control a single gen-set, while WebSupervisor can be used for total fleet management.
Description:
- Fully automatic system reduces electric energy bill by keeping the mains power below high tariff level during peak hours.
- At the same time it accomplishes emergency standby power in case of mains failure.
- Remote control and monitoring via IL-NT GPRS.
- WebSupervisor is used for remote monitoring.
- Wide range of engine and generator protections, including vector-shift protection, loss of excitation and earth fault
current protection. - Automatic forward and reverse synchronization with soft load ramp-up and ramp-down during changeover.
- Common synchronization of InteliCompact NT MINT controllers provided by MainsCompact NT.
- Active and reactive load import/export control and load-sharing.
- Automatic optimization of number of running sets according to load (including Run Hours equalization).
- Peak loping controlled by built in Scheduler, engines automatically run during peak period.
- History file with performance log stored in InteliCompact NT MINT allows easy backtracking and problem solving.
- Seamless communication with engine’s electronic injection control unit, all important values and alarms are visible on screen of InteliCompact NT and stored to the history file in plain language.
- Mains protection InteliPro provides wider range of protective features for higher reliability and increased safety of the system operation.
