CHAPTER 3 Capstone SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Each 200 kW power module in the C1000 MicroTurbine is controlled by its own digital system controller that works in unison with the controllers on the other modules to deliver the power output command issued by the C1000 unit controller. The power output command delivered to each power module is determined by the C1000 controller based on total power required, number of operating units, thermal priorities, engine run times and maximizing efficiency. The system runs in one of two primary electrical operating modes. The first mode is called Grid Connect, where the system generates power at the level requested by the user and delivers it to the existing, active power grid in the user’s facility. The other mode of operation is Stand Alone. In Stand Alone mode, the MicroTurbine is the sole source of electrical generation and generates the power necessary to support whatever load is connected to it as long as the load is below the maximum capacity of the generator. Each power module in the C1000 Series MicroTurbine has its own primary independent digital controllers whose specific tasks are as follows:  Load Controller, located in the Load Control Module  Generator Controller, located in the Generator Control Module  Engine Controller, located in the Fuel Metering Module  Two identical Battery Controllers, one in each Battery Control Module  System Controller, located in the System Control Module. Connecting these controllers are a low voltage DC bus and a communication bus. Power and communication between the controllers flow over these bus connections as shown in Figure 3-4. Each of the major components has an embedded Personality Module (PM). The PM is an Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM) device which is used to store operational parameters and user settings for each of these components. This allows the main operating software to identify, and adjust for the operation of, various machine configurations. The PMs can be read and programmed through the CRMS Software. Refer to the CRMS Technical Reference, Maintenance Edition (410014) for PM upload and download instructions. 410072 Rev A (January 2009) Page 3-6 Capstone reserves the right to change or modify, without notice, the design, specifications, and/or contents of this document without incurring any obligation either with respect to equipment previously sold or in the process of construction.
