Dual genset intermittent operation consists of regular switching of the load between 2 gensets.
The use of 2 gensets instead of one is due either to safety purposes in case of a genset failure or to a
continuous operation requesting service stops.
The running period for each genset is adjustable using
Flashing Relay Timer
program
parameter. If the time is adjusted as 0 hours, it will be actually set to 2 minutes for faster testing
purposes.
A flashing relay output function is provided, based on the parameter
Flashing Relay Timer
.
Each time the period programmed using
Flashing Relay Timer
elapses, the relay output will change
position.
The flashing relay function may be assigned to spare relays using
Relay Definition
program
parameters. Also relays on an extension module may be assigned to this function.
The dual genset intermittent operation uses also the
Mains Simulation
feature. Please review
chapter
6.7
for a detailed explanation of this feature.
