The GC-3400XT is based on a scalable multi-master control concept to combine up to 31x easYgen-3000XT equipped gensets with one group controller in a group. The groups are scaled up to x16, i.e a total up to 496 gensets can be managed in an application. On distribution layer, GC-3400XT supports easYgen | LS-6XT to enable complex power generation and distribution applications.
Applications:
- Prime Power
- Peak shaving
- Emergency standby
- Import-Export
- Island parallel
- Mains parallel
Functions:
- Full connectivity of up to 496 gensets sorted into 16 groups of 31 gensets each. One GC- 3400XT per group
- Redundant or single load share communication over CAN/Ethernet between easYgen and group controller
- Redundant or single load share communication over Ethernet among group controllers
- Redundant or single load share communication over Ethernet between GC and LS-6XT
- Dedicated Ethernet Modbus TCP communication line to external Modbus master (PLC, SCADA etc.)
- Active and reactive load sharing and load dependent start/stop (LDSS) management of the whole fleet
- LDSS Emulation tool
- Emulate generator sequencing on a PC
- Transfer the final settings directly to the GC-3400XT
- Supports synchronization and soft loading/unloading of a tie- or mains breaker
- Phase angle compensation (Vector group adjustment) in case transformers are used in the application
- Comprehensive monitoring of all interfaces, loss of redundancy and breaker feedback plausibility check
- “System Update” function for troubleshooting and fast commissioning
- Time / Date synchronization over Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP)
- 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 ports
- UL 61010, UL 6200, CSA, and CE compliance
