GPC-3
A Simplified Solution For Genset Builders.
The generator paralleling controller (GPC-3) is a highly versatile and compact generator paralleling controller designed for engineers who prefer to carry out application programming in a PLC.
A multi-function component, the GPC-3 features protection, measurements, engine control and engine protection and communicates with all PLC and SCADA systems. Values and alarms are displayed on a large LCD screen.
Its simplicity and logic makes it the ideal controller for PLC-based power management systems.
The M-Logic configuration tool makes it possible to customise the application and dedicate specific functions or logic conditions to different inputs and outputs.
GPC-3 is easily compatible with additional display units and Additional Operator Panels (AOPs) for remote control, supervision and status indication.
GPC-3 2912010030
The GPC-3 is intended for land-based applications. It is designed for the following applications (can be combined):
- Stand-alone
- Parallel with other generators
- Parallel to mains
The GPC-3 can synchronise the generator and after synchronizing carry out all necessary generator control and protective functions. It is well-suited for PLC-controlled systems and the interfacing can be done via binary and analogue I/Os or via serial communication.
