genset control

Woodward raised the standard in genset paralleling control and power management system with the easYgen-3000XT Series controllers. These controllers come with standardized software that is simple to configure, yet easily customized for individual applications. Enhanced connectivity enables fast, reliable and secure interfac-ing to other controls and communications systems while the enhanced hardware is a drop-in replacement for previous generation easYgen-3000 Series Controls.
Targeted at enabling complex power management applications, the easYgen-3500XT supports easYgen | GC-3000XT to manage a large genset fleet of up to 496 sets and easYgen | LS-6XT to control up to 64 synchroniz-ing breaker or manual switches on up to 128 complex bus segments. Redundant load sharing is selectable us-ing Ethernet B and C networks for enhanced reliability. The control combines complete engine-generator con-trol and protection with advanced, peer-to-peer paralleling functionality and innovative features in a robust, at-tractive, user-friendly and all-in-one package. The easYgen-3500 XT controls are designed to direct connect up to 690Vac and operate to 4000m above sea level without derating.
The easYgen-3500XT is available in two packages. P1, focused at complex paralleling applications provides redundant Ethernet communication, LS-5 connectivity, and standard I/O set, while P2, Co-Gen/CHP model offers expanded onboard I/O set, 3-ph busbar voltage measurement capability and phase rotation monitoring between gen-busbar and busbar-utility. These packages are available without a display in a rugged metal hous-ing suitable for back panel installations (easYgen-3400XT-P1 and easYgen-3400XT-P2 respectively). A sophis-ticated touch screen remote panel (RP-3000XT) complements them as an operator control panel. A version of easYgen-3500XT (easYgen-3500XT-P1-LT and easYgen-3500XT-P2-LT) is designed to operate down to -400 C for outdoor applications.
