Description:
Distributed Generation Switchgear
Systems provide the capability of synchronizing
single or multiple generators to the
utility grid to allow soft load transfer,
parallel generation, peak shaving, or cogeneration
operation. These systems
incorporate control logic & software
programming for automatic synchronizing,
soft load transfer and automatic load
(kilowatt) and VAR/PF control.
GCS 2000 - DG systems may also
incorporate a variety of industry standard
communications for remote monitoring,
control, and datalogging.
GCS 2000-DG group
encompasses systems for:
Parallel Generation - Uninterrupted
Power Transfer (PG-UPT®)
Cogeneration (Co-Gen)
Peak Plus
GCS 2000-DG systems are designed
to automatically synchronize generators to the
utility to allow soft load peak shave or
cogeneration operation without compromising the
emergency standby feature of the gen-sets.
GCS 2000-DG switchgear can be customized
to meet your specific, utility interconnection needs,
providing a cost-effective solution to limit demand charges
applied by the utility. GCS 2000-DG controls can be added to
existing installations to convert your standby gen-sets (which
have traditionally been a capital cost burden) into a true
asset for your facility.
PG-UPT, Co-Gen, and Peak
Plus Systems are designed for new or
existing installations.
GCS 2000 - Peak Plus
switchgear is designed for installations
where it is not physically or
economically feasible to replace an
existing transfer switch. The switchgear
is used as an addition to your open-
transition transfer switch. Controls
include a "wrap around" power circuit
breaker on the emergency bus of the
transfer switch. This allows the
generator to be operated in parallel with
the utility for peak shave, parallel
generation operation or uninterrupted
load testing, without compromising the
functionality of the transfer switch.
Parallel Generation and Peak
Plus systems may be supplied with a
utility import-monitoring feature to
automatically initiate peak shaving.
Alternatively, a remote signal from a
SCADA or Building Automation System
(BMS) can be used to initiate load
management on demand.
GCS 2000-DG Switchgear with PG-UPT
or soft loading controls can be used in hospitals,
data centers, fiber optic hubs, and internet switching
hotels, enabling your standby generators to provide
uninterrupted power transfer. GCS 2000-DG switchgear
with co-gen controls can be used with gas turbines or natural
gas reciprocating engines in cogeneration applications
such as land fills, sewage treatments, greenhouses, or anywhere
heat may be recovered to increase overall efficiency .
