Versions and Options
All systems are 3 phase capable out of the box .
You can switch between ELC mode and IGC mode with a menu setting.
Intermediate power ratings/channels are of course possible. Ask for a bespoke qu ote. If your dumploads require currents above 12A (more than 3kW at 220V) per dumpload, we can adapt the design to allow for up to 50 A per channel. Please tell us your requirements.
Turbine, Generator, AVR, dump loads, capacitor bank, main switch, main contactor not included.
I can help with the research and supply, if you wish.

Above 200kW
The current controller board design allows for 45 channels at 40 A, switching 1800 A or 450 kW in total. More is possible by combining 2 or more controller boards.
However consider regulating the power generation by also regulating the water flow. This saves the cost for providing and switching dumploads, and it saves water, especially if you have a water reservoir.
The microcontroller board provides water regulation feature as standard.

it would enable you to watch all parameters realtime. This feature is still in beta phase. Real time graphs not
available at the moment.
The main purpose of the network feature is that you receive a
warning if critical parameters go out of range, for example via email.

DC monitoring
Isolated, potential-free DC monitoring input.
This is a special galvanically isolated analog input to monitor the
voltage of a battery, e.g. 12V lead battery. For example useful for systems which have a battery
as power supply backup.

Additional analog inputs
32 additional A/D inputs to monitor all kinds of things like bearing temperatures, voltages, currents etc.
If your system has sensors in other components (e.g. temperature sensors
on the turbine bearings or sensors from water valves, water intakes,
water tanks, pressure sensors, etc.), the information from these
sensors can be put to use.
Sensors not included.
