RS422 Data Link
The Generator set Control Panel is designed to be specifically integrated with QSV81G – 91G
range of CPG engines. It will be located within the container.
The system is intended for use in single or multi-set isolated bus or single set base load utility
paralleling applications whilst providing both isolated bus paralleling control (set to set
synchronising, isochronous KW and KVAR load sharing) and base load utility paralleling
(synchronising to utility, base load KW control, VAR/PF control). It provides compatibility with
master controllers for multi set utility paralleling applications requiring supervisory system control,
i.e. load demand, multi-level load shed/add etc, whilst enabling data control and monitoring via an
optional (Modbus) communications interface.

Version 2
2.3.3 Construction
The control system is housed in a rigid, free standing, metal enclosure designed to require front
access only. The enclosure is constructed of minimum 14 gauge (2mm) steel sheet metal, primed
and finished in colour RAL 7032. All other sheet metal components of the system are primed and
finished black enamel. Control and external interface voltages are segregated by means of
trunking and any components operating at more than 50 volts are shielded to prevent inadvertent
contact. Each wire, device and functional component is identified by silk-screen or similar
permanent identification.
Circuit breakers are installed to allow more effective overload and short circuit protection to be
provided. Terminals for field connection are provided with removable plugs for ease of installation.
The internal components of the GCP require a 24V d.c. power supply. This is derived from the
battery and charger system located within the GCP. The power supply to the GCP requires a
permanent single phase AC supply (determined by the site application) via the fused supply from
the AC Genset mounted auxiliary enclosure or the customers power distribution board.
The touchscreen provides data and graphics on an EL monochrome display. The microprocessor
TM
is 80486SXLC2-50 technology and includes a DOS based operating system and ‘Interact ’
application software. It is complete with a real time clock, (month/day/year/hour/min/sec) with
separate battery backup and holds an extensive 5MB of FlashDisk memory. The screen is
mounted on a console on the front of the GCP with gaskets between the touchscreen and the
enclosure for environmental protection. The HMI is interconnected to the PLC via serial
communications utilising a Modbus protocol.
12 of 26

Version 2
2.3.5.1 Enclosure Environmental Hardening
The front panel of the unit is formed by a single membrane that covers the entire surface. The
fascia is easy to clean and impervious to water spray, dust and oil/exhaust residue. Switches for
control are incorporated into the door which is gasketted with a dual moisture and RFI/EMI
gasket to protect internal components from airborne contaminants.
On sensing a warning or shutdown condition the control displays the warning or shutdown
message, lights the warning or shutdown indicator lamp on the front of the fascia and displays a
code number which is interpreted by the PLC and displayed at the HMI in an easy to understand
format. These codes are also displayed on the PCS fascia and can be cross-referenced using the
genset manual.
The control has provisions for four programmable fault conditions. These may be either warning or
shutdown conditions. Labels for customer faults can be programmed into the control.
The control maintains an historical data log of the latest alarm and status conditions on the genset.
The kilowatt meter and ammeter are scaled in percent of AC output for easy recognition of genset
status and load level
0 - 90% of rating ; green
90 - 100% of rating ; amber
> 100% of rating ; red.
Kilowatt Meter.
Indicates 3-phase AC power output as a percent of rated load. Provides a true indication of
total kW load on the genset, regardless of the load power factor. Scale is 0 - 125%
Accuracy is +/- 5%
Frequency Meter.
Indicates genset output frequency in hertz. Calculated frequency is based on engine speed
and alternator voltage zero-crossing and is not affected by voltage waveform distortion
caused by non-linear loads. Scale is 45 - 65 Hz. Accuracy is +/- 5%.
AC Voltmeter.
Dual scale AC voltmeter indicates alternator output voltage. Accuracy is +/- 2%. Scales are
0 - 300VAC, 0 - 600VAC, 0 - 400 VAC, 0 - 750VAC, 0 - 5260VAC, 0 - 15,000VAC.
AC Ammeter.
Indicates current output in percent of maximum rated standby current. Accuracy is +/- 2%.
Scale is 0 - 125%
Phase Select Switch.
Allows the operator to select the phase monitored by the analogue ammeter and voltmeter.
LED indicators display which phase is being monitored and which voltage scale is applied.
The voltage and current data for all three phases is displayed simultaneously on a single screen so
lead and voltage balance is readily apparent.

2.3.5.11 Digital Voltage Regulation, Synchronizing and Load Sharing Controls
The PCS module includes all voltage regulation, synchronizing and load sharing control required
for isolated or infinite bus paralleling applications, including demanding UPS and non-linear load
applications.
2.3.5.11.1 Paralleling.
Isolated Bus Paralleling control (set to set synchronising, isochronous kW and kVAR load sharing)
and Base Load Utility Paralleling (synchronising to utility, base load kW control, VAR/PF control)
features are provided.
2.3.5.11.6 Synchronizer.
Range:
The synchroniser can drive the genset frequency and voltage to a bus value which is 40%
to +10% of selected voltage and frequency. Ramp speed for matching is 4% per second.
Frequency differential :
The set is controlled to match the bus frequency.
Voltage differential :
The set voltage is controlled to within 1% of system bus voltage with checks for correct
phase rotation to bus.
Permissive protection :
Adjustable for a phase difference of 5 to 20 degrees with phase difference decreasing.
Time delay is adjustable from 0.5 to 5 seconds.
Control System :
Automatically resets bus frequency and voltage to preset values after the paralleling
breaker closes.
‘Dead Bus’ Sensor :
Allows closure of the generator set to an inactive system bus.

Version 2
2.3.5.11.7 Digital Biasing Performance.
The PCS provides a biasing signal to the MCM700 speed governor to perform load control,
synchronising and load govern operations. Variation of the ‘Duty Cycle’ output, between 10 and
90%, by the PCS determines the required change in load/speed rating of the engine governor.
This required change can be between -40% and +10% of rated value.
After the fault is cleared AmpSentry™ Protection softly loads the genset by a controlled ramping of
output voltage to rated level, allowing the genset to resume normal operation without potentially
damaging voltage overshoot.
Fixed over/under voltage and under frequency time delayed set points also provide a degree of
protection for lead equipment. Over/under voltage conditions trigger a shutdown message on the
digital display screen. Under frequency condition prompts both a warning and shutdown message
depending upon the length of time and magnitude of variance under rated frequency.
18 of 26
Version 2
AmpSentry™ Protection includes an overload signal that can be used in conjunction with
proprietary transfer switches to automatically shed load, preventing a potential genset shutdown.
The overload signal is programmable for operation at a specific kW level, on the basis of an under
frequency condition, or both.
2.3.5.15.2 Batteries:
Two off sealed lead acid maintenance free batteries. These batteries use a thixotropic gel
electrolyte which holds the acid in contact with the flat plate electrodes, maximising the contact
surface area therefore the available capacity. They are supplied with safety vents which enable the
battery to to gas if misused and then re-seal automatically.

unit kVAR (adjustable) for more than 2 - 10 seconds (adjustable).
The PLC directly interfaces with the system touchscreen (HMI) as well as both PCS and the
engine protection module (CENSE). It interfaces with the PCS via a CPG developed RS232
(MON) protocol and to the CENSE module via a CPG developed RS422 medium. Communication
to the HMI is provided by means of a MODBUS RTU, RS485 link.
The PLC uses a DIN rail mounted card and rack arrangement to allow easy servicing and
identification of system components. Other features to enhance serviceability include:
· capability for on-line program/data changes using a personal computer directly connected to
the PLC,
· LED status indicators on each board for use in diagnosis of system condition and board level
service,
· I/O cards include integral surge suppressors for greater system reliability,
