Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA Dual Mode System Controller (DMSC): User’s Manual POWER Switch A key is required to operate the power switch. The DMSC may be set to ON or OFF and the key may be removed in either position. The third position is the momentary BSTART position to awaken the battery. Table 1 summarizes the POWER switch position options. Power Switch Position Description OFF MicroTurbines are shut down. Protected loads and MicroTurbines are isolated from the utility, if 24 VDC is available from the APS or master MicroTurbine to trip the remote disconnect device as shown in Figure 2. ON Table 1. POWER Switch Settings The MicroTurbine operating mode and disconnect device status are controlled by the MODE switch and by MicroTurbine operational settings. BSTART When the DMSC is set to BSTART, the MicroTurbine awakens if it is in the battery-saving sleep state. To prevent discharging the battery, the spring-return action quickly returns the switch to the ON position. Turning the switch to BSTART when the MICROTURBINE AWAKE lamp is lit can also drain the battery. To prolong battery life, do NOT use the BSTART position if the MICROTURBINE AWAKE lamp is lit. Only use the BSTART position to awaken the MicroTurbines immediately prior to a Stand Alone start. MODE Switch The MODE switch is a rotary switch that allows operational settings of the MicroTurbines for the Grid Connect Only mode, Automatic Transition mode, or for the Stand Alone Only mode. Table 2 summarizes the MODE switch position options. NOTE Some considerations apply if the mode switch position is changed during MicroTurbine operation. If changed from GRID to TURBINE or from TURBINE to GRID, expect that protected loads will be without power for a period of time as determined by system settings. If changed from AUTO to GRID or TURBINE, protected loads can also be without power for a period of time if the MicroTurbine was in the opposite mode before the change. If changed from GRID or TURBINE to AUTO, the MicroTurbine will remain in whatever mode it was in until the DMSC automatically changes the mode based on the status of the utility grid. 400023 Rev A (October 2008) Page 14 of 27 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 | DUAL MODE SYSTEM CONTROLLER (DMSC) USER’S MANUAL
