Bachmann electronic has established itself as a leading provider of automation systems for Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plants: More than 6,000 CHP units are already equipped with Bachmann systems. An important module here is the CHP template, as it significantly reduces the engineering effort required.
The CHP Template from Bachmann electronic contains solutions for the most frequently required tasks for operating a CHP unit. It includes all the relevant functions for dynamic and static grid support in accordance with VDE-AR-N 4105 and VDE-AR-N 4110. The automation specialist's experience shows that using the template can save up to 80 percent of the engineering time and costs when changing over to a new controller.
The template, which is currently available in version 4.0, is ready for immediate use and includes certified Bachmann hardware such as the GSP274 Grid Measurement, Synchronization and Protection Module, which meets VDE requirements for units in low and medium voltage networks.
The CHP Template also covers typical control engineering tasks such as speed, power, phase-frequency and voltage control, as well as mixture or engine cooling control. The completed Codesys project in Structured Text offers extensive functions that are available as pre-programmed modules in the template.
Know-how protection is also an important aspect of the template: all functions can be modified or added to by the programmer, although the development tools remain with the manufacturer and are not necessary for operation. Access to operating parameters and status displays can be controlled via a system of rights, thus ensuring know-how protection at all times.
A web visualization is available for efficient testing and commissioning. This can be customized to provide CHP unit manufacturers with a visually and functionally distinct display.
