GCP-30
Woodward’s Genset Control For Multiple/Parallel Operation Provides Reliability
Woodward’s GCP-30 Series genset controllers are designed to provide total control for multiple, medium- to large-sized applications. A network of the compact, versatile GCP-30 controls is capable of controlling up to 14 gensets with automatic sequencing. Load management features include automatic base loading/peak shaving, import/export control, and emergency power/back up power generation. The GCP-30 Series is well known in the market for highly reliable soft- and hardware.
Features include:
- True RMS voltage and current sensing for Generator, Bus, and Mains
- Complete engine/generator protection, plus mains monitoring
- Relay manager for programming relay outputs according to selectable discrete and analog conditions
- Load share 14 gensets in island mode or paralleled to the utility
- Different load or process dependent start/stop sequencing modes with active and reactive power load sharing
- Communication to engine ECU’s (CAT, MDEC, J1939 based protocols), PLC’s, external I/O extension cards
- Connection to Woodward LS4 to run multiple breaker applications
- Configurable discrete Inputs and Relay Outputs
