Exerciser clock –The exerciser clock (when enabled)
allows the system to be operated at preset times in either
test without load, test with load, or extended parallel
mode. A Real Time Clock is built in. Up to 12 different
programs can be set for day of week, time of day,
duration, repeat interval, and mode. For example, a test
with load for 1 hour every Tuesday at 2AM can be
programmed. Up to 6 different exceptions can also be set
up to block a program from running during a specific date
and time period.
Application types – Controller is configured to operating
in one of six possible application types. These topologies
are often used in combinations in larger systems, with
coordination of the controllers in the system either by
external device or by interlocks provided in the control.
Topologies that may be selected in the control include:

Standalone: Control provides monitoring, protection and

control in a non-paralleling application.

Utility Single: Control monitors one genset and utility. The

control will automatically start and provide power to a load
if the utility fails. The control will also resynchronize the
genset back to the utility and provides extended paralleling
capabilities.

PCC
3300

Synchronizer only: control will synchronize the genset to G

other source when commanded to either via a hardwired
or Modbus driven input.
Position Only

Utility Multiple: Supports all functionality of Isolated Bus

and provides extended paralleling to the utility. Extended
paralleling load set points follow a constant setting;
dynamically follow an analog input, Modbus register or
HMI.

Isolated Bus: allows the genset to perform a dead bus

closure or synchronize to the bus and isochronously share
kW and kVAR loads with other gensets.

WINDINGS & ELECTRICAL PERFORMANCE
All generator stators are wound to 2/3 pitch. This eliminates
triplen (3rd, 9th, 15th …) harmonics on the voltage waveform
and is found to be the optimum design for trouble-free supply
of non-linear loads. The 2/3 pitch design avoids excessive
neutral currents sometimes seen with higher winding pitches. Note: Continuous development of our products entitles us to

selected pole and tooth designs, ensures very low levels of
voltage waveform distortion. Front cover drawing is typical of the product range.
