HMP300-2 Power Integrated Protection Module was used for the main distribution board of 50000DWT Bulk Cargo Ship

HMP300 power integrated protection module is a high-performance control module developed by SmartGen in combination with the design requirements of marine power distribution system, which integrates the measurement and collection of parameters such as voltage, current, frequency, power and power quality of the generator, abnormal protection and communication transmission functions. It has been certified by CCS and was widely used in marine and land power distribution.

This series of module can be configured at the most four programmable output ports and and two programmable input ports, the designers with a HMP300 control module can reach ever need voltage protection, current protection, reverse power protection and frequency protection and voltage/current harmonic distortion rate and the electrical parameter collection that may kinds of single function module to achieve technical index, can protect diesel gensets, axle gensets and emergency gensets, significantly increase the system integration and cost-effectiveness ratio of AMS and the PMS system structures.

The harmonic detection function of HMP300 series control module

There are two submodels HMP300 and HMP300-2 designed for users to better meet different technical requirements:

HMP300 is equipped with a communication interface supporting CANBUS2.0B protocol, which is mainly used to communicate with the marine engine control module of SmartGen to achieve power data acquisition and display; The model also has differential protection, which can be used to protect the three-phase leakage current of generator or motor.

Differential Protection Mode of HMP300

HMP300-2 is equipped with RS485 interface supporting Modbus-RTU communication protocol, which is mainly used for generator and bus protection and transmission of information to the main logical control unit, and supports the function of customizing Modbus-RTU communication protocol. In addition, HMP300-2 is specially optimized for the protection of steady-state frequency fluctuation and transient frequency fluctuation of the axle geneset. Users only need one HMP300-2 to protect all the electrical parameters of the axle genset.

Input or output of configuration parameters

1. Press for more than 1s，then go to user menus of the following table.

2. Select the USB flash drive configuration with reading and writing, which could check, download, save and renew the configuration file.The configuration file suffix is.lgm.

3. Check the xxx. lgm configuration parameter file in the USB flash drive.

4. Download the configuration file in HGM9400NXXXX. lgm format to the control module.

5. Save the control module’s configuration parameters to the corresponding HGM9400nxxx.lgm file.

6. Renew configuration file(HGM9400NXXXXX.lgm).

Historical Data Storage

The historical data is stored with year/month as the folder name and year/month/day as the .dat file name. The unit stores data once per minute in standby mode and once per second in other states. If the storage space of USB flash drive is less than or equal to 200MB, the earliest one-month data files stored will be deleted.

The historical data files are shown as below.

Curve of historical data

The curve of historical data could be checked and viewed by the “data analysis” function of iGMP6 test software.

In the previous chapters, we have introduced the main functions of HGM9420N/LT. If you have any questions or further demands of the control module, please feel free to contact us!

This case involves the use of SmartGen’s HGM9510 parallel control module that can realize multi-units parallel connection; HGM9560 multi-units grid-connection control module can realize parallel connection of power generation and mains supply. With the cooperation of the two, it can meet the requirement of multi-units parallel connection and grid-connection with mains supply, realizing the application of the constant power output and the shear peak of the units.

The operation data of the two units are as follows

The first unit, accumulative power: 1204.4 MWH; power factor: 0.89; accumulative running time: 10,528 hours.
The second unit, accumulative power: 795.4mwh; power factor: 0.77; accumulative running time: 10,528 hours.

Grid-connection diagram of the two units

Constant power output: the maximum active power output of the genset is what the setting active power output of the geneset. When the gensets and the mains supply are connected in parallel successfully, the power generation begins to output the load. When the active power output of the power generation reaches 100%, the remaining load is carried by the mains supply, which can also be considered the power generation as main use. When the load is less than the setting value of active power output of the power generation, the mains supply begins to soft unload tripping.

Mains supply shear peak: mains supply first starts with load, when the active power output reaches 100% of setting value, the control module is in automatic mode, gensets start automatically, closing and paralleling with mains supply after normal operation, units start soft unloading, receiving the rest of load, when the load is lower than the setting value of active power output of mains, the units stops for soft unload tripping.

In this special time, participating in MEE with high popularity requires not only courage and determination, but also an important inspection whether self-protection reach the standard. Chinese people are fully aware of the harm of the novel coronavirus and its infectivity. Thanks to the joint efforts and self-isolation of the whole nation, the epidemic situation in mainland China has been controlled effectively. But the global trend is not optimistic.

SmartGen arrived in Dubai as promised, without absence and giving up. We adhere to a trust, a promise, a global service concept. We are here for you whenever you need !

Making joint efforts to fight against the epidemic, for a better tomorrow of mankind !

Go, China!
Go, Dubai!

In the previous two chapters, we respectively introduced the powerful display features of HGM9420N/LT (with 16 built-in languages) and various extended functions. This chapter we will introduce the single unit control module’s special synchronization switching features, as well as the communication protocol customization, NEL (non essential load), dummy load, cloud monitoring and other functions.

The single unit automatic system composed of one mains supply and one genset could realize the synchronous swithing beween power generation and mains supply, which decreases the power supply interruption to a great extend caused by power generation and mains switching.

Operation Description 

Automatic start/stop
Press

button, the indicator lights on, indicating that the genset is in automatic startup mode.

Automatic start:
a) Mains power is normal and remote start (on-load) is effective, the unit high-speed warming-up delay ends, the indicator lights on if power generation is normal, the control module sends out switch-on signal when gensets and mians power meet the synchronization requirements, while sending out the switch-off signal immediately after detecting power switching feedback signal, then genset is on-load.

b) When the mains power starts abnormally and high-speed warming-up ends, the indicator lights on if the power generation is normal. If the voltage and frequency meet the requirements of on-load, the power generation closes and relay outputs, the genset is loaded, the power supply indicator lights on and the genset is in normal operation.

Automatic Stop:
During the normal operation of the genset, if the mains power returns to normal, then enters the “mains voltage normal delay”. Make sure the mains power is normal, the indicator of mains power status will be on, the “stop delay” will begin. For another case, when the remote start input fails, “stop delay” starts.

The control module waits for gensets and the mains power to meet the synchronization requirements, it will send out the mains power closing signal. After detecting the feedback signal of mains power switch-on, it will immediately send out the mains power switch-off signal, the power supply indicator lights off, the mains power is on-load, the mains power supply indicator lights on, and the “high-speed heat dissipation delay” begins to enter the shutdown process.

The conversion flow chart is as follows
