Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA Advanced Power Server (APS): User’s Manual Table 9. Max Efficiency I/O Window Configuration Input Item Definition Input Item Description Available Settings Category Conversion Factor Memory Category selection list. Multiplier applied to selected memory value. See the Table in Appendix 1. Positive integer values. ItemName Memory item selection list. See the options in the tables of Appendix 2 that are associated with each group in Appendix 1 Table. Instance Selection of entry level for memory category that have multiple entries. Dependant on the memory category chosen above. (See Appendix 1 for details.) Min Power Capacity (kW) Amount of Power Capacity (or running turbines) to always leave on regardless of how low the power demand goes. (In Stand Alone mode of operation, this value should not be set to zero or no units may turn on to support the load.) 0 to 65535 kW Spinning Reserve (kW) Amount of power capacity desired (running turbine capacity), in addition to the current power demand or load. Should be set to the largest expected step load size for the application. 0 to 65535 kW Stop Delay Time (min) Timer that keeps a unit that wants to be turned off due to a decrease in the power demand on until the timer expires. Eliminates cycling of units on/off due to quick transient load decrease. 1 to 65532 minutes PC Hysteresis Deadband applied to control algorithm that calculates turbine on/off levels. 2000 watts (not adjustable) The final power dispatch option is the power setpoint mode. Clicking this option in the Power Dispatch section of the Dispatch Sequence window will enable this mode of operation. For directions on how to open this window to edit the settings of the Interactive Power Setpoint Threshold Configuration window, see Table 3. An example of this window for a particular group is shown in Figure 25. In this mode of operation, you configure the on and off power demand levels associated with each individual turbine in the group. You can double click and edit the on and off threshold levels to change them for each turbine that is in the group being edited. You can also set the on and off delay levels for each turbine. The On Delay option determines the time the individual MicroTurbine waits to start after the power demand exceeds the On Threshold level. Similarly the Off Delay option determines the time the individual MicroTurbine waits to turn off once the power demand drops below the Off Threshold level. Please keep in mind that any changes that set the On Threshold below the Off Threshold will not be accepted as this would not make logical sense. 400011 Rev A (June 2007) Page 33 of 67 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 | ADVANCED POWER SERVER (APS) USER’S MANUAL
