Synchronisation & Load Sharer

Overview

Woodward’s easYgen-3200XTXT Series paralleling genset controllers provide exceptional versatility and value for OEM switchgear builders, generator packagers, and system integrators. The easYgen-3200XT combines complete engine-generator control and protection with advanced, peer-to-peer paralleling functionality and innovative features in a robust, attractive and user-friendly package. Its integrated LogicsManager™ programmable logic functionality provides outstanding application flexibility and can often eliminate the need for additional PLC control, yet can easily integrate with SCADA or PLC-based control systems where desired.

The easYgen-3200XT gives you the advantage of standardizing on a single, affordable genset controller for many different distributed power generation applications–from stand-alone emergency backup power to parallel load sharing of up to 32 gensets in complex, segmented distribution systems with multiple utility feeds and tie breakers.

Highlights

• Emergency standby: data centers, hospitals, commercial and industrial facilities
• Distributed Generation (DG): utility-dispatchable power for peak demand response
• Islanded prime-power: oil & gas exploration, marine, remote villages, rental/mobile
• Microgrid: military, government, net-zero communities, universities
• Utility paralleling: peak shaving, demand curtailment
• Cogeneration (CHP): wastewater treatment, biogas production/containmentSwitchgear upgrades: generator control retrofit to add load sharing/paralleling capability

Features

• Three-phase true RMS power sensing with Class I accuracy
• Operation modes: AUTO, STOP, MANUAL, and TEST modes accessible through face plate or discrete input
• Breaker control: Slip frequency/phase matching synchronization, open/close control, breaker monitoring
• Load transfer: open/closed transition, interchange, soft loading/unloading, Utility parallel
• Load share and device to device communication over Ethernet or CAN (“warm redundancy” possible)
• Remote control via interface (Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU) and via discrete/analog inputs for adjusting speed, frequency, voltage, power, reactive power, and power factor set points
• Freely configurable PID controllers for various control purposes, such as heating circuit control (CHP applications), water level, fuel level, pressure and/or other process values
• Direct support to several ECUs: Scania S6, MTU ADEC ECU7/8, Volvo EMS2 & EDC4, Deutz EMR2 & EMR3, MAN MFR/EDC7, SISU EEM, Cummins and Woodward EGS02 ECU
• Field ECU support and additional I/O expansion board connectivity through sequencer files
• “System Update” function for online troubleshooting and adding / removing generator sets
• Time/Date synchronization over Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP)
• Cylinder head/exhaust temperature monitoring (Temperatures come from J1939 or CANopen devices)
• Woodward ToolKit™ software for flexible setup from a single connection to the network. The ToolKit can be accessed either via USB, or via Ethernet, or via CAN port.
• Multi-lingual capability: English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, Russian, Turkish, Polish, Slovakian, Finnish, Swedish
