    The document describes an Automatic Mains Failure module that monitors the mains power supply and automatically starts a generator to provide backup power when the mains power fails or drops below a certain threshold. It transfers the load to the generator power and then back to mains power once it is restored. The module has features like generator start and stop controls, engine monitoring functions, and configurable settings that can be adjusted via the front panel buttons. It is designed to provide automatic and reliable backup power in an easy-to-use and compact package.

    704

    DEEP SEA ELECTRONICS PLC

    Auto Mains Failure


    Issue 7 VH 28/08/02

    DESCRIPTION
    The 704 is an Automatic Mains Failure module with generator monitoring, protection and start facilities. It utilises advanced surface mount construction techniques to provide a compact yet highly specified module. Operation of the module is via three pushbuttons mounted on the front panel with STOP, MANUAL and AUTO positions. Selection of the Auto mode is confirmed by LED indicator, and monitors the incoming mains supply (3 phase or single phase). Should the incoming AC mains supply fall below a configurable pre-set limit (180V default), the generator will be started, and load transferred to the gen-set. When the AC mains supply returns to within limits, the module will wait for a configurable, pre-set stabilisation period, and then transfer load back to the mains. The engine will be instructed to stop after a cool-down period. The modules microprocessor provides a comprehensive list of timers and functions, and access to the settings is via a small Configuration Switch on the rear of the module. Parameter settings can be adjusted using the front panel pushbuttons once in Configuration Mode. The module monitors the engine and provides the following functions: Automatic Start with 3 start attempts and Automatic Crank Disconnect with adjustable Start and Stop Timers and Fail to Start indication. Configurable Pre-heat and Energise to Stop functions. Low Oil Pressure and High Engine Temperature Shutdown. Overspeed and Underspeed (frequency) protection. Charge Fail alarm Two fully configurable auxiliary inputs. Adjustable Warming and cooling timers Adjustable Mains Fail voltage level Change-over contactor control. Issues such as environmental compliance and EMC have been carefully engineered into the design. Advanced features such as Protected Solid State Outputs mean that there are no moving parts or contacts to burn out.

    OPERATION
    Stop mode - This is used to stop the engine when it is running and to cancel Auto mode. It is also used to reset any Shutdown alarm conditions. Manual mode - This is used to manually start and run the engine. It can be stopped by pressing the Stop button. Auto mode - This selects the automatic mode of operation, in which the module will await a mains failure. Once detected, the module will initiate its pre-configured start sequence, observing the Start Delay Timer before starting the engine. When the mains supply returns, the module will initiate its pre-configured stopping sequence.

    SPECIFICATION

    CONFIGURATION
    Configuration Mode is selected by operation of a small switch on the rear, left-hand edge of the PCB. This is partially hidden to prevent accidental operation. See figs 1 and 2 Fig. 1
    Normal

    Configuration

    Once Configuration Mode is selected, the Auto LED will commence rapid flashing. When in Configuration Mode all normal operation is suspended. The Stop pushbutton can be used to select the LED code that corresponds to the required function. The 5 left hand LEDs will form the code. The Manual pushbutton will allow the user to change the function parameters. The 3 right-hand LEDs inform the user of the current setting for the chosen function. When the required parameters are displayed, pressing the Auto button will save the new setting. The process is repeated for each function change. When configuration is complete, the Configuration Mode Selector Switch should be returned to the Normal position. A key to configuration options is provided with the Installation Instructions supplied with module.
