Deif PPU 300 - 1. Introduction to the Operators Manual; About the Operators Manual; Warnings and Safety Guidelines

1. Introduction
1.1 About the Commissioning guidelines
1.1.1 General purpose
The commissioning guidelines provide information for a thorough, safe and effective commissioning of controller(s), within the
system.
DANGER!
Commissioning is the most risky period of operation. Commissioning errors can lead to personal injury or
death, or equipment damage. These guidelines cannot anticipate or include every possible commissioning
problem. Commissioning must therefore be done thoughtfully, systematically and carefully by qualified and
experienced personnel.
DANGER!
DEIF does not accept any responsibility for wiring errors.
DANGER!
The controllers interface to third party equipment. DEIF does not accept any responsibility for the operation
of third party equipment.
INFO
The commissioning guidelines provide information about checking third-party equipment, for example, the
switchboard wiring. This information is provided to help ensure a successful commissioning of the entire system.
However, DEIF does not accept any responsibility for the operation of third party equipment.
1.1.2 Intended users of the Commissioning guidelines
The commissioning guidelines are primarily for the person who commissions the controller.
DANGER!
To prevent personal injury and/or damage to equipment, you must read these Commissioning guidelines
before connecting the controller to a power supply.
The commissioning guidelines can be useful to the designers working with the controller during the design process.
Operators may find the commissioning guidelines useful for troubleshooting.
1.1.3 Switchboard panel examples
The PPU 300 can be used for a wide range of applications. As the example below shows, in addition to the controller display
unit, a complex application like a tanker's switchboard panel typically includes extra voltage, current, frequency and
synchronisation indicators, as well as manual operation buttons and switches. These indicators and switches are useful
during commissioning.
However, for example, a yacht switchboard panel might consist of only a controller display unit. The commissioning must be
adapted accordingly. There is no substitute for carefully thinking through each commissioning step, based on the actual
system.
