Capstone Capstone Turbine Corporation Model C65 User’s Manual (V5.XX) In Grid Connect, the MicroTurbine is set to a fixed electrical output (in most cases, the maximum output), and water temperature is set to a fixed setpoint. During operation, the diverter adjusts exhaust flow through the heat exchanger to maintain water temperature. System efficiency will drop as exhaust is bypassed to maintain water temperature. 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. 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. MicroTurbine Preventive Maintenance This section details the preventive maintenance procedures that must be performed on the Capstone MicroTurbine. Only Capstone Authorized Service Providers can access the inside of the MicroTurbine enclosure (except for accessing the User Connection Board in the UCB/JUCB). Only Capstone Authorized Service Providers can perform maintenance on the Micro- Turbine components. NOTE Failure to provide proper maintenance will void the MicroTurbine warranty. Users do not perform the following MicroTurbine maintenance procedures, but it is important for users to be aware of them. WARNING The MicroTurbine system generates and uses voltage levels that can injure or kill. Obey all safety precautions when you work with or around electrical equipment. 400017 Rev A (July 2007) Page 47 of 61 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 | C65 5xx
