Definition of Ratings & Reference Conditions

Prime Power (PRP) is the nominal output continuously available, where the average load (variable) does not exceed 70% of the prime
power rating during an operating period of 250 hours. The total operating time at 100% prime power must not exceed 500 hours per year.
A 10% overload is available for a maximum of 1 hour in 12 hours of operation and must not exceed a total of 25 hours per year.
Standby Power (LTP) is the maximum output available (at variable load), for up to 200 hours per year. The average load (variable) must
not exceed 80% of the standby power rating, with less than 25 hours per year at the full standby rating. No overload is available. The
genset must not operate, at standby rating, in parallel with the public utility under any circumstances.
Standard Reference Conditions: air temperature 25°C (77°F), barometric pressure 100kPa [110m(361ft) altitude], 30% relative humidity.
Note: The above ratings may be subject to derate at different operating conditions. Please see the Derate Guidelines on the Broadcrown
website.
All power ratings and reference conditions in accordance with ISO 8528-1 and ISO 3046-1.

STANDARD CONTROL SYSTEM - EXPORT PRODUCTS BC 5110 Digital Auto Start

The standard control system for Export products is BC 5110 (photo), based on the
Deep Sea Electronics DSE5110 Digital Auto Start controller.

This provides for the manual and automatic remote start of the generator with a LCD
digital display of :

▪ Coolant Temperature, with integral high temperature protection

▪ Oil Pressure, with integral low pressure protection
▪ Volts, Amps and Frequency
▪ Engine operating hours
▪ Battery volts

Also featuring :

▪ Automatic cool-down timer function

▪ Emergency Stop button
▪ Ample auxillary inputs/outputs for optional features
▪ Optional - battery charger and door mounted illuminated switch.

CONTROL SYSTEM OPTIONS - EXPORT PRODUCTS

BC 5310 & BC 5320 control systems (just the DSE modules shown here)
provide complete power monitoring and protection facilities.
Compared to BC 5110, addition features include :

▪ Pre-alarms for Low Oil Pressure and High Coolant Temperature

▪ Digital display of kW, kVA and Power Factor
▪ Under/Over Volts protection
▪ Over Current Protection
▪ Full RS485 Telemetry implementation

The BC 5320 provides full AMF functionality with integrated mains monitoring
and generator/mains contactor control.

The BC 5510 & BC 5520 control systems provide the same features as
BC 5310 & BC 5320 respectively, plus :

▪ BC 5510 - Set-to-Set Synchronisation

▪ BC 5520 - Single Set-to-Mains Supply Synchronisation with
integrated mains monitoring

For Multi Set-to-Mains synchronisation, each set requires BC 5510 with the addition
of one mains monitoring panel BC 5560 (not illustrated).
See the Synchronisation Guidelines for further details.

CONTROL SYSTEM OPTIONS - X-RANGE

The X-Range of control systems has been developed to suit larger generating sets (>500kVA)
for the UK and Projects market.

The entry level is Remote Start and provides for the manual and automatic remote start of the
generator with LCD digital display all operating paramaters including :

▪ Coolant temperature with high temperature alarm and shutdown

▪ Oil pressure with low pressure alarm and shutdown
▪ Engine operating hours, battery charge volts and amps
▪ Volts, with Under/Over Volts protection
▪ Amps, with Over Current protection
▪ Frequency, kW, kVA, Power Factor

The Automatic Main Fail variant add full AMF functionality with integrated mains monitoring and
generator/mains breaker control.

The Generator Parallel system makes provision for set-to-set synchronisation, whilst the Mains
Parallel version allows single set-to-mains synchronisation with integrated AMF functionality.

By means of the Multi-Set Mains Parallel system (not illustrated) a number of sets can be
synchronised with each other and the mains supply.
