Capstone Turbine Corporation MicroTurbine Userís Manual Configuring Dual Mode Capstone The MicroTurbine system settings must be established for both Grid Connect parameters and Stand Alone parameters, since the system will be operating in both modes at different times. Contact your Capstone Authorized Service Provider for data on establishment of these parameters. Setting the System for Dual Mode Operation To set the system to Dual Mode, use either the Display Panel or the User Interface Port. If using the display panel, you must log on with a password. Navigate to the top-level System Data menu, then the System Configuration submenu, and then the Power Connect submenu, and then select DUAL MODE and press the ACCEPT button. Switching Times for Dual Mode When a utility outage occurs, protected loads will be without power for up to seven minutes as the system transitions from Grid Connect to Stand Alone mode. When utility power is restored, the protected loads will return to grid power within ten seconds, but the MicroTurbine will be offline for up to 32 minutes as it reconfigures to Grid Connect Mode. MultiPac Operation Capstone MicroTurbines may be configured into an array of up to 20 MicroTurbines (up to 100 with the optional Capstone PowerServer). Such an array will operate as a single power generation source. This MultiPac capability features a single control point (the master unit) and the combined synchronous output of the units in the MultiPac. Individual MicroTurbines share power, current, and load on both a dynamic and steady state basis. MultiPac operation allows controlling the individual MicroTurbines through the master unit. Observation and control of each MicroTurbine in a MultiPac can be accomplished by the connection of a communications interface device through the master unit or Capstone PowerServer. Any MicroTurbine unit can be designated as the master unit. This unit then becomes the physical and logical control connection point for the entire MultiPac system. Contact your Capstone Authorized Service Provider for additional information on establishment of a MultiPac system. MultiPac Grid Connect Operation In Grid Connect operation, each MicroTurbine independently synchronizes to the grid. MultiPac functionality provides a single interface point for Start, Stop, and Power Demand control. It is not necessary to connect a modem or external power meter to each individual MicroTurbine in a MultiPac, only to the master unit. MultiPac Stand Alone Operation In Stand Alone operation, MultiPac functionality provides the capability to synchronize the voltage source outputs of the individual MicroTurbines such that they share power and current on both a dynamic and steady state basis. The master MicroTurbine unit broadcasts synchronization data to the other units over a dedicated Capstone- proprietary digital communications bus.
