MAINS FAILURE UNIT
CANBUS AND MPU VERSIONS
The controller is a comprehensive AMF unit for
single genset standby or dual genset mutual standby
operations.
The unit is available with MPU or CANBUS versions.
The CANBUS version connects to ECU controlled
electronic engines providing engine control,
protection and instrumentation without extra senders.
The ECU alarms are displayed in text.
The unit has an optional internal GSM modem
module and is able to initiate modem calls and send
SMS messages in fault conditions through either
internal or external modems.
The unit provides a comprehensive set of digitally
adjustable timers, threshold levels, input and output
configurations, operating sequences and engine
types. All programs may be modified via front panel
pushbuttons, and do not require an external unit.
Last 100 faults are stored in the event log file. The
event log includes not only the date-time information,
but also a comprehensive list of measured genset
parameters at the time that the fault has occurred.
The WINDOWS based RAINBOW program allows
remote monitoring and control.
The unit supports MODBUS protocol enabling
communication with PLCs and building management
systems. The MODBUS protocol is also supported
through GSM and PSTN modems.
The unit offers multiple language support.
