Recommended Specifications
Controls shall be provided to monitor the kW load on the generator set, and
initiate an alarm condition when total load on the generator set exceeds the
generator set rating for in excess of 5 seconds.
Controls shall include a load-shed control, to operate a set of volt-free contacts
(for use in shedding customer load devices) when overload of the generator set
occurs.
An AC over/under voltage monitoring system that responds only to true RMS
voltage conditions shall be provided. The system shall initiate shutdown of the
generator set when alternator output voltage exceeds 110% of the operator-set
voltage level for more than 10 seconds, or with no intentional delay when
voltage exceeds 130%. Under voltage shutdown shall occur when the output
voltage of the alternator is less than 85% for more than 10 seconds.
A battery monitoring system shall be provided which initiates alarms when the
DC control and starting voltage is less than 25 VDC or more than 32 VDC.
During engine starting, the low voltage limit shall be disabled, and if DC voltage
drops to less than 14.4 volts for more than two seconds a "weak battery" alarm
shall be initiated.
2.1.4.10 Control Interfaces for Remote Monitoring:
All control and interconnection points from the generator set to remote
components shall be brought to a separate connection box. No
interconnections shall be made in the control enclosure or in the AC power
output enclosure. Provide the following features in the control system:
common alarm contact set rated 2A @ 30VDC to indicate existence of any
alarm or shutdown condition on the generator set.
one set of contacts rated 2A @ 30VDC to indicate generator set is ready to
load. The contacts shall operate when voltage and frequency are greater
than 90% of rated condition.
fused 10 amp switched 24VDC power supply circuit shall be provided for
customer use. DC power shall be available from this circuit whenever the
generator set is running.
fused 20 amp 24VDC power supply circuit shall be provided for customer
use. DC power shall be available from this circuit at all times from the
engine starting/control batteries.
The control shall be provided with a direct serial communication link for the
LonWorks communication network interface as described elsewhere in this
specification and shown on the drawings.
