Capstone Turbine Corporation Model C65 Hybrid UPS User’s Manual This mode is typically used when either a fixed or maximum electrical output is required and usually sets a higher value, hence a higher priority on the electrical output rather than the heat output. In Stand Alone, the microturbine is programmed to follow the electrical load. As in Grid Connect, the water temperature is fixed. The diverter attempts to maintain a constant water temperature, despite the varying electrical output. 3.13.3. Thermal Priority In this mode, the water temperature setpoint is fixed and is maintained by automatically varying the microturbine electrical output. During this time, the diverter is fully closed, routing all the exhaust heat through the heat exchanger. If the microturbine is operating at its minimum speed and power (idle), the diverter will begin to open if the water temperature begins to rise above its setpoint. At no time, will the heat exchanger be allowed to operate at an unsafe temperature. This mode is typically used when maximum fuel efficiency is desired and electrical output is secondary. However, maximum efficiency can be maintained as long as minimum heat load can be achieved without opening the bypass. Thermal Priority can be used only in Grid Connect mode, and cannot be used in Stand Alone operation. 4. Using the UPS Controller The Capstone UPS Controller is required for any application with more than one Hybrid UPS microturbine. The Capstone UPS Controller accessory acts as a master for up to ten Hybrid UPS microturbines, and coordinates MultiPac operation to provide high availability of power to the critical load. The UPS Controller can:  Display overall system status as well as details for individual microturbines.  Start and Stop the system and change the desired operating modes.  Communicate with a Building Management System to share monitored microturbine data, accept power demand and other control commands, and signal potential shutdown conditions.  Coordinate Hybrid UPS microturbine state transitions, including consideration of external battery state of charge information.  Provide a common communications connection for a PC with CRMS software. Figure 6 shows the typical connections available from the UPS Controller. Refer to the UPS Controller User Manual (400028) for a complete description of this accessory and how to operate it. 400027 Rev B (August 2013) Page 39 of 71 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.
