Recently, SmartGen APC715 with Dongfeng Cummins P (pump) type ECU QSZ13-P550, and the pump perfectly realized speed regulation and stabilized water pressure. The overall effect is good, and the unit operation is stable and reliable, which has been praised by customers again!

APC715 pump control module is used to control the engine pump unit to realize automatic start/stop, data measurement, alarm protection, and “Four Remote” functions (remote control, remote measure, remote communication, remote debugging). The control module has a speed adjustment function to stabilize the pump outlet/inlet pressure by adjusting the engine speed. In addition to the conventional Engine Speed Governor (GOV) interface, the control module also has CANBUS (SAE J1939) interface, which can control various ECU or non-ECU engine pumps.

APC715 pump control module adopts large screen liquid crystal (LCD) graphic display, which can display Chinese, English and other languages. The working parameters of the engine and pump can be directly displayed on the screen. It is reliable and easy to use. The pump unit control module is designed to adjust the outlet pressure by adjusting the engine speed, and finally stabilize it to the set rated value.

“Adjust Speed Control” is divided into auto control and manual control. Auto Adjust Speed: Under this mode, during the unit is normal running, the control module will adjust the speed regulating objects (outlet pressure/inlet pressure) set by the user according to the preset to rated speed and maintain its steady automatically.

The “Auto Adjust Speed” can be divided into relay adjust speed, GOV adjust speed and CAN adjust speed.

Relay Adjust Speed: Control the engine servo motor simply by using speed raise relay and speed drop relay.
GOV Adjust Speed: Control the electronic speed regulator simply by using GOV analog signal. Users should set parameters according to the actual situation as different regulators have different parameters.
CAN Adjust Speed: Control the ECU engine speed simply by using CAN interface. Parameters setting and adjustment method are same as GOV. SW1 should set as 5.0 and SW2 as 2.0 while adjusting.

SmartGen’s pump unit control module has verified its strong strength and reliable performance in the actual use time after time. Of course, we will also bring you more, better and finer product experience and service through our continuous efforts to reward you for your continued support. Please wait and see!

——Eight Gensets were remodeled to realize parallel connection of different powers by HGM9510

There are four 500kW Cummins gensets and four 800kW Cummins units, as well as two generator rooms. One room is for the four 500kW gensets and the other one is for the four 800kW genesets. The original two gensets were connected in parallel respectively, the previous system had poor parallel effect while the parallel failure and uneven load distribution often occurred.

The two are integrated into one by parallel remodeling of HGM9510. The MSC communication distance between the 8 units is 50 meters, the MSC communications of the first unit and the final unit need a 120 Ω matching resistor in parallel respectively, which make users realize 8 units connect in parallel easily through “3 keys” (manual key, starting key, closing key). The simple operation and reliable performance receive consistent affirmation by users. They will no longer have to worry about parallel failures and uneven load distribution.

The sky in August is bright and clear;
The mood in August is enthusiastic and expected;
The arrival of Chinese Valentine’s Day adds romance to August.
In this sweet day, love is not a sense of ritual, but it needs a sense of ritual!

Romantic Chinese Valentine’s Day with gifts~
She walks towards employees with rose tea.

《The Little Prince》says: It’s the existence of the sense of ritual that make one day different from other days, one hour from other hours.

Adding some sense of ritual in your life will make people look less “casual”.
It may be:
Cooking for your mate on the anniversary;
Watching a movie on the Valentine’s Day;
Sending a bunch of flowers at the festival.
Where are the good memories of absent-minded life?
If you have love, please have a good day;
If you have no love, please love yourself careful.
Happy Chinese Valentine’s Day!
Meeting the right person, everyday is the Chinese Valentine’s Day!

“Yueshanchengyu 16118”

“Yueshanchengyu 16118” is the first newly built ocean fishing ship powered by LNG fuel designed by CSS605, a subsidiary of China State Shipbuilding Corporation Limited. This ship is mainly used for trawling in the South China Sea. It is 53.5m long, 8.5m wide and a single trawler with twin propeller slipway. The ship is specially equipped with a set of LNG cold energy utilization system, which can meet the cooling capacity requirement of the fish tank at -18℃, realizing the purpose of green energy saving.

In order to improve the automation of the power station management system, a tailor-made main switchboard for the ship is equipped with the power management system of SmartGen. Without the intervention of external programmable devices, the designer uses 3 HMC6 power management controllers to set up a multi master station power management system, which realizes the on-demand scheduling and real-time automatic protection of different types of gensets and greatly improve the crew’s working environment and work efficiency.

Manual, semi-automatic and automatic modes are set for each genset, allowing different units to work in different modes, and the starting sequence can be adjusted at will. The semi-automatic mode can realize remote manual starting and stopping, one-key synchronous closing and automatic load distribution, one-key unlocking and opening. The mode can coexist with the automatic mode of other units. In the automatic mode, three main gensets can be synchronized automatically according to their priority. In parallel running, they can be automatically modulated and loaded to achieve balanced distribution of active power. The online genset is increased in heavy load while reduced in light load. In case of on-line genset failure, the standby genset will start and take part in automatically, and the failed genset will quit automatically. The system also has the function of heavy load inquiry. When the main genset running in parallel is overloaded, the system can automatically unload the non-important load.

HEP300 Electronic Potentiometer for Frequency Modulation of LNG Fuel Power Units

It is emphasized that the LNG fuel power unit is equipped with HEP300 electronic potentiometer of SmartGen, making switch quantity control signal issued by the power management system transfer to the voltage signal of settable center point voltage and adjustable change range, creating favorable conditions for the realization of the diesel gensets and LNG fuel power unit automatic parallel, modulation of frequency and load.

HMC6 Main Operation Interface

Introduction of the Core Functions of Multi Master Power Management Controller HMC6

Power Management Solution of HMC6 with HMC9000 Diesel Engine Control Box

The system builds a real multi master station system through MSC communication network (CAN bus), and its power management function is realized by the calculation of all generator control units. In the system, a control unit is selected as the “instruction unit”, which is responsible for the calculation of the starting priority and other related power management functions of the genset. It can realize automatic synchronization and load distribution of up to 16 gensets. If one control unit fails, the power management calculation will be automatically transferred to the next available control unit.
