1.
Harbour operation deactivated:
After the
Harbour operation
digital input is
deactivated (or the
Reject harbour operation
digital input is activated), then the
controller checks whether the connected gensets can take the load.
•
If the connected gensets cannot take the entire load, the next available genset
is started.
2.
De-load & open emergency genset breaker:
When the connected gensets can
take the load, the controller de-loads and opens the generator breaker for the
emergency genset.
3.
Stop emergency genset:
Once the breaker is open, the controller stops the
emergency genset, and harbour operation stops.
9.8.3 Parallel timers
In some cases there may be a restriction on the time that the emergency genset is allowed to run in parallel with other power
sources. This might be because the emergency genset requires a short paralleling time. The parallel timer allows the operator to
define very short paralleling times between the gensets on the ship and the emergency genset, for a smooth transition from an
emergency genset supply to on-ship electricity generation by the gensets.
Parallel timers can be configured under
Parameters > Local power management > Parallel timers
.
INFO
Configure the parallel timer on the GENSET controller to define a short paralleling time for a smooth transition from on-ship
electricity generation by the gensets to an emergency genset supply.
