Ship power management system
Description
- Two auxiliary generators and one shaft generator deliver electricity for systems of the ship. Generators are controlled by GeCon controllers in MINT (Master) configurations.
- Power Management System (PMS) can work in three basic operational modes:
- MANUAL – complete manual control
- SEMI-AUTO – synchronizing and load-sharing is automatic; genset start/stop and load transfer between aux and shaft generators in manual
- AUTO – complete automatic control
- PMS continuously evaluates load reserve on the bus and blocks start of the bow thruster if the load reserve is insufficient.
- PMS automatically trips the non-essential consumers, if the power system is overloaded.
- PMS can control up to 10 independent circuits of non-essential consumers.
- Freely programmable built-in PLC functions are used to accomplish load transfer between shaft and auxiliary generators.
