Control System
The SWT single-unit control system provides a user-friendly operating interface and essential genset monitoring functions. It supports LCD display, key operation, multilingual display, generator parameter detection, engine parameter detection, local and remote start, event logs and protection functions.
- Automatic/manual start and stop operation.
- Voltage, current and operating status monitoring.
- Alarm lamps and event logging for maintenance reference.
- Configurable parameters through panel operation or PC software.
- Multiple communication interface options available according to project needs.
ATS Optional
An ATS panel can be supplied as an optional configuration for mains-to-generator or mains-to-mains automatic transfer applications. The ATS controller integrates measurement, display and control functions, and supports automatic switching between two power sources. The reference switching time is up to 80ms under the stated ATS configuration.
SWT Paralleling System Optional
For projects requiring multiple units or generator-to-grid operation, SWT can provide a paralleling system for set-to-set or set-to-grid applications. The system can synchronize up to 32 units automatically, support automatic start and parallel operation, and manage the number of running units according to load demand.
