CHAPTER 2 Capstone PRODUCT OVERVIEW Stand Alone or Dual Mode Option A “Dual Mode” option is available for the microturbine. This option allows operation either with or without connection to an electric grid (termed “Grid Connect” or “Stand Alone” operation respectively). This Dual Mode option includes two large battery packs used for unassisted start and for transient electrical load management. The battery packs are lead-acid type and completely sealed. When operating in Stand Alone mode, the system can power connected loads at user-selected voltage and frequency setpoints. It can power remote facilities such as construction sites, oil fields, offshore platforms, and other locations where the electric utility grid is not available. Distributed Generation The microturbine produces synchronous current when connected to an electric utility grid. It allows electric utilities to expand power generation capacity in small increments, to optimize current infrastructure, and reduce or delay the need to develop, fund, and build new transmission and distribution lines. The Microturbine also allows utility consumers to offset part of their energy consumption from the grid. Heat Recovery Module The C200 Heat Recovery Module (HRM) accessory operates with the C200 microturbine to provide hot water heat recovery. The HRM is an exhaust economizer with integral temperature setpoint controller and exhaust diverter. The controller provides digital readout of water temperature leaving the heat exchanger, and allows the user to set the desired outlet temperature. An electrically operated exhaust gas diverter valve is actuated by the controller to maintain outlet temperature to the selected setpoint. Power for the controller and actuator can be supplied by the auxiliary electrical output of the C200. Operational Features Operational features of the Capstone C200 microturbine are summarized in the following: Peak Shaving – The microturbine can augment utility supply during peak load periods, thus increasing power reliability and reducing or eliminating peak demand charges. Combined Peak Shaving and Standby – The microturbine can be used for both Grid Connect power and Stand Alone power for protected loads. With the Dual Mode System Controller (DMSC) accessory, the microturbine can be programmed to switch automatically upon loss/restoration of electric utility grid power. The microturbine, with its low emissions, low maintenance requirements, and high reliability is well suited for combination peak-shaving and standby power applications. 410066 Rev C (June 2009) 2-3 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.PDF Image | CAPSTONE C200 MICROTURBINE TECHNICAL REFERENCE
