Dual Mutual Standby
Inside/Out
Deep Sea Electronics' Dual Mutual Standby, integrated into a genset control module, provides OEMs with a straightforward solution for complex power installations. This system is ideal for applications with critical business needs requiring a secondary backup generator to safeguard against power loss from both the mains and the primary standby generator. Dual systems are also beneficial in remote locations where mains power is unavailable, and both prime and secondary power are supplied by generators.
Previously, balancing the running hours of dual mutual standby systems while maintaining sophisticated operation required complex third-party equipment, leading to costly and time-consuming project investments. The DSE7320 MKII Auto Mains Failure control modules simplify this process with advanced features, including automatic hours balancing within the Dual Mutual Standby function.
By incorporating dual mutual standby functionality directly into the control module, the need for external third-party equipment is eliminated, streamlining the engine hours balancing process.
System Operation
Two DSE7320 MKII modules work together to simultaneously monitor the mains power supply to the load. In the event of a mains failure, the primary controller automatically starts the engine and switches the load to the genset. The primary and secondary gensets then switch power over a set time period. This reduces wear and tear, enhances operating performance, allows for scheduled maintenance, and ensures redundancy even if both the mains and one generator fail simultaneously.
Remote Monitoring
Remote monitoring is facilitated by connecting a DSE890 MKII gateway and utilizing DSEWebNet® software. This enables operators to remotely monitor and control their system from any location worldwide.
Diagram: Dual Mutual Standby System
The diagram illustrates a Dual Mutual Standby system. It shows two DSE7320 MKII controllers, labeled 'Primary' and 'Secondary', connected to two gensets ('Genset 01' and 'Genset 02'). These controllers manage power distribution to a load, depicted as a building complex. A laptop running DSEWebNet® software is shown connected to a DSE890 MKII gateway, indicating remote monitoring capabilities. The system also includes connections to the mains power supply via a power line tower.
