Beware of where you control power (contactor) comes from - you may have enough generator power but the volt drop can drop out the contactor (around 80%) if it is powered from the one phase and neutral, often the case for larger contactors.
Hi
I am stuck offshore without my complete library and very poor and intermittent bandwidth - can anyone tell me is there any guidance in IEC 61892-2 about installed generation capacity and system voltage selection?
NORSOK E-001 reccomends no more than 4MW at 690VAC.
Would you believe there...
Hi Scotty
They have been in the game for a good while, but as reciprocating rather than electronics experts. Also,I think this issue is due to transmission of vibrations through the structure, and beats with other equipment, whereas a lot of their stuff is often mounted on land on a concrete...
Hi
I do a bit of troubleshooting work in the marine industry and seem to be coming up against one particular problem over and over - electronic diesel engine controllers by Wartsila (WECS series) on medium/large (say 500kW to 2MW) reciprocating diesel engines for generators.
There are edge...
