EGCP-1
Engine Generator Control Package
Engine control Gen-set synchronizing Automatic sequencing Real kW load control
APPLICATIONS
The EGCP-1 is a microprocessor based complete generator control and engine management package. It is designed for use with an automatic voltage regulator and a Woodward speed control to automate and protect diesel or gas engine based generator sets. Designed for small to medium size generator sets, the EGCP-1 can be configured to operate stand-alone or utility paralleled sets. A network of EGCP-1 controls is capable of controlling up to eight un-manned generator sets for baseload, peak shaving or backup power generation.
Synchronizing
Digital signal processing to eliminate harmonic issues Adjustable phase window, voltage window, and dwell times Safe dead bus closing logic internal to the control Synchronization across generator and mains breakers Multiple shot re-closing with adjustable time delays Manual voltage and speed adjusts for manual synchronizing True RMS power calculations accurate control Configurable loading/unloading ramp rates Isochronous load-sharing of up to 8 units using percentage based load sharing Base load control for optimum fuel efficiency Import/Export control using a watt transducer Soft Utility Transfer Function Externally adjustable Base Load or Process Reference Levels with independent ramp rates KW droop provided for manual load control
Reactive kVAR control Gen-set protection Engine protection

Real (KW) Load Control
DESCRIPTION
The control's functions include:
Engine Control
Engine Pre-glow Control Fuel Solenoid Control Engine Starter Control KVA Controlled Cool-down Timer Oil Pressure Monitoring Water Temperature Monitoring Battery Voltage Monitoring Speed Monitoring with Overspeed Protection
Reactive (KVAR) Control
VAR sharing on isolated busses using percentage based reactive load sharing Power factor or VAR control when base loaded Externally adjustable VAR or PF setpoint levels Automatically starts and stops gen-sets based on plant bus or process demand Configurable plant bus demand start/stop levels and timers On-line engine priority sequence configurability from any EGCP-1 or a PC to equalize run-time Over/Under Voltage Over/Under Frequency Reverse Power (Inverse time delay) Loss of Excitation
Over current (Inverse time delay) Loss of Utility Power detection Speed/Frequency Mismatch Load Surge High/Low Coolant Temperature High/Low Oil Pressure Overspeed Start Failure Modbus or DDE communications via RS-422 based serial port RS-485 EGCP to EGCP Load-sharing communications network EGCP-1 Configuration file Upload/Download capability through a PC interface program
