3.1.2. Operational Data The display panel (or a computer connected directly or via modem) can be used to monitor many operational parameters during system operation. Only some of the routine operation and performance data items available for monitoring are listed below: • Power Output (in kilowatts, or kW) • Turbine Speed (in revolutions per minute or RPM) • Turbine Exit Temperature (in °C or °F) • Phase Voltages (in Volts) and Currents (in Amperes) 3.1.3. Control Device Authority and Priority A PC connected to the user or maintenance port can function as a control device for the microturbine. A PC can view system data at any time, but only one device can control the microturbine operation (that is, providing start/stop command or changes to power demand). The display panel has default control authority to issue operational commands to the microturbine. The user can start and stop the microturbine without logging on to the system (that is, no password is required). All other system adjustments require the user to log on to the system with the user password. The user port will take control when a password is entered either from the Capstone Remote Monitoring Software (CRMS) or other software using the Capstone open communication protocol. All system commands via the user port, such as start, stop, and adjustment of Power Demands, require entry of a user password. When the user port has control, the Display Panel does not have control and can only be used to view information. The system automatically cancels a log on after five minutes of inactivity. 3.1.4. Startup A Start command can be issued from the display panel or remotely through a PC/CRMS interface. When the command has been issued, the generator operates as a motor to bring the microturbine up to ignition speed, at which point fuel is introduced into the combustion chamber and ignited. When the Turbine Exit Temperature (TET) sensors detect an increase in temperature, the system is declared lit, and the microturbine accelerates. Once the MT enters the load state, it accelerates to full load. The start-up process from a cold start to full load requires approximately six minutes. The startup process can take longer for a Stand Alone MT, which can take as long as 20 minutes to recharge the battery packs to the level needed for full load operation. 3.1.5. Shutdown When the microturbine is issued a Stop command, power output is reduced, followed by a period that the microturbine is motored at nominal speed to remove heat stored in the recuperator and microturbine engine in order to protect the system components. 400017 Rev C (February 2013) Page 25 of 69 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.
