Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 Application Guide: Dual Mode Controller (DMC) Dispatch Mode Operation Settings When the utility voltage is acceptable, the DMC will connect the MicroTurbine(s) and the Protected Loads to the utility. If the MicroTurbine Start Input is configured as REMOTE, the unit will act as a standby generator and will never start in Grid Connected mode. The MicroTurbine(s) will periodically charge the batteries using power from the utility. If the MicroTurbine Start Input is configured as GC USER/SA REMOTE, the unit will start and dispatch power in Grid Connect mode according to the settings for User Start, User Power Level, Time of Use, and Load Following. Refer to the MicroTurbine System Operation Manual for details of these dispatch control functions. The MicroTurbine(s) will periodically charge the batteries using power from the grid or from the engine if the MicroTurbine is operating. When a utility outage occurs, the DMC will isolate the MicroTurbine(s) and the Protected Loads from the utility and will automatically dispatch the MicroTurbine(s) to start in the Stand Alone mode, regardless of the Grid Connect dispatch control settings. Grid Connect-to-Stand Alone Transition The following Sequence of Events occurs during the automatic transfer from Grid Connect (GC) mode to Stand Alone (SA) mode. For additional information, please refer to the DMC schematic diagram in the Appendix to this document. 1. The utility voltage is acceptable. The under voltage relay in the DMC is not tripped. The DMC POWER Switch (S1) is set to ON and the MODE Switch (S2) is set to AUTO. The isolation switch (M1) is closed. The MicroTurbine(s) and the Protected Loads are connected to the utility. The MicroTurbine(s) are either in the stand-by state, or are operating in the Grid Connected mode, depending on the dispatch settings. 2. A utility outage begins. The under voltage relay in the DMC senses the utility outage, and then opens the normally open contacts UVR and closes the normally closed contacts UVR. 513000-001 (Oct 2001) Page 16 of 32 DMC Application Guide.
