- Wide range of available HMI devices 5“, 8“, 13“, 18“
- Configurable inputs and outputs to satisfy various requests
- Controller redundancy
- Reduced fuel costs by optimizing power management parameters
- Integrated PLC programmable functions for flexible solutions
- Soft loading and unloading reduces big current surges and stress on generators and diesel motors
KEY FEATURES
-
POWER MANAGEMENT AND STARTING SEQUENCE
Automatic starting and stopping of diesel generators based on load demand and running hours. Our PMS system offers a flexible absolute or relative approach to power management to reduce fuel costs depending upon particular application requirements.
-
LOAD SHARING
Reliable regulation loops allow autonomous load sharing between gensets in defined ratios.
-
LOAD SHEDDING
Function module that prevents blackout occurrence by tripping unnecessary consumers in cases when there are no available gensets to be synchronized to the grid in order to provide more available power.
-
DIESEL MOTOR PROTECTIONS
Safe and reliable protective functions to guard investment costs and human life.
-
GENERATOR PROTECTIONS
Flexible adjustment of protection parameters allows the protections to be active even in emergency manual mode when the third-party controllers are dealing with regulation loops.
-
EMERGENCY GENERATOR CONTROL
Fast and reliable startup of standby emergency diesel generator in case of blackout by utilizing AMF function module.
-
SHAFT GENERATOR CONTROL
Complex solution for controlling shaft generators
-
SYNCHRONIZATION
Safe and reliable synchronization between gensets and possible short-term synchronization with mains.
-
BUS-TIE BRAKING CONTROL
Local or remote control of bus tiebreakers with interlock functions.
-
BLACKOUT RECOVERY
In case of blackout occurrence, the PMS system equipped with a blackout recovery module is taking care of the sequential starting of important consumers upon electrical grid recovery.
-
HEAVY CONSUMER SUPPORT
Unstable genset performance and possible blackouts are mitigated by using a heavy consumer support function module that does not allow to engage big consumers unless there is enough power on the ship's electrical grid.
-
POWER FACTOR STABILIZATION
Power factor stabilization is achieved by utilizing a software module that runs a regulation loop interfacing with the AVR regulator.
-
RUNNING HOURS EQUALIZATION
Engine starting priorities can be swapped automatically to balance engine running hours into approximate equilibrium.
-
IAS INTEGRATION
PMS system can be easily integrated into Intemar v2.0 automation system or 3rd party automation system by implementing standardized communication protocols such as Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU.
RELIABLE AND HIGHLY AVAILABLE POWER SUPPLY WITH OUR PMS SOLUTION
INTEMAR PMS Power Management System controls the generation and distribution of power through the ship to secure enough available power for a safe voyage. The most important features like load-dependent start-stop, load sharing loops, heavy duty consumer support, allow the system to be optimally tuned for mitigating the risks of unstable performance and blackouts. The operator can optimize electric power plant dynamics for efficient fuel consumption.
The system is easily integrated with INTEMAR v2.0 automation system, which offers to the end-user ease of control and monitoring from main control stations onboard. An intuitive approach has been taken into consideration while developing mimic diagrams for power management systems so that the most important information is first disclosed to the operator, to reduce necessary reaction times when needed.
