Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA Application Guide: Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) ATS Configuration (MicroTurbine as Backup) When the MicroTurbine is operating as a backup source, the ATS controls MicroTurbine operation through two separate control circuits: the wake-up signal, and the start/run signal. Wake-up Signal The ATS provides a ‘wake-up’ signal to establish communication with the MicroTurbine. The wake signal is momentary (between 0.1 to 2 seconds). If the wake-up signal is applied for less than 0.1 seconds, the unit may not wake up at all. If the signal is applied to the wake-up contacts for longer than two seconds, the battery may completely discharge. Start/Run Signal The Start/Run signal (TS, NR, in Exerciser) initiates MicroTurbine operation after the Wake-up signal (Relay OP) resets. The MicroTurbine Start/Run signal resets following retransfer of load to the primary source. The MicroTurbine will then continue to run through its cooldown period. Exerciser Operation The ATS exerciser may be set to activate the MicroTurbine with or without a load transfer, or it can be completely disabled. Exerciser functionality is enabled by using the DIP switches located on the ATS Controller circuit board (see ATS Operator manual for details). The schematic diagram below indicates the MicroTurbine-to-ATS interconnections.
