Description
Built-in programmable logic and load sharing functions make external PLCs unnecessary. The controller performs paralleling, peak shaving, automatic load shedding, import and export power control and protection. Inputs and outputs are fully programmable, and there is an option of two analog inputs. Several synchronizer modes are provided, along with a built-in real-time monitor for commissioning and breaker control schemes with BESTlogic™Plus logic. The construction is potted in compound. A wide set of interfaces eases integration into control systems, and the e-mail function sends messages about selected alarm and warning signals. Setup is done in BESTCOMSPlus with an offline simulator. An application example is 8 MW of standby generation from 23 units for a cryogenic gas processing plant with a segmented bus scheme, operating without an external PLC.
How to choose
The choice depends on the complexity of the scheme. For paralleling systems with load sharing and two buses take the DGC-2020HD, while for simple emergency and standalone sets the DGC-2020ES or DGC-2020 is enough. The number of inputs and outputs can be increased with up to 4 AEM-2020 modules and up to 4 CEM-2020 modules. If full voltage regulation is needed, add the optional VRM-2020 module, which provides generator excitation.
