Electric Power Controls Cat® Energy Control System (ECS) 400

Product Specifications for Cat® Energy Control System (ECS) 400

Cat® Energy Control System (ECS) 400 Standard Equipment

Control Modes | Off |

• Off

Standard Components

• Managed switch that offers configurable site communication and enhanced security provision to assure network integrity. One ethernet (4-Wire) port connection for customer networking of DER's.

• Telematics PLE702 (See LEHE22212) allows data logging of 300 channels for 1.5 days (requires subscription for visualization).

• Best Battery Diode (BBD) for backup power supply.

Control Modes | Auto | Grid Connected - Sub-modes (16):

• Scheduling - 5 schedules and 6 segments - BESS dispatch scheduling based on year, month, time, day and segment of day - 5 schedules and 6 segments - Import and export scheduling for active and reactive power based on time, day and segment of day

• Load sense/load demand - Based on asset priority or engine-hour balancing - Automatically matches on-line asset capacity to the loads

• Load smoothing mode - Non-stable load dispatch using available assets for specified durations of time

• Reliability mode - At least one high priority "fuel consuming" asset ON

• Grid Reactive Control mode - There are 4 available reactive power control settings - Constant VAr, Constant PF, Volt-VAr curve, Watt-VAr curve.

• Pro-active add and drop - Ability to manually bring additional gensets online in anticipation of bringing on large loads. - Manually turning off gensets instead of waiting for LSLD drop when the customer knows large loads are being taken offline

• Utility parallel, base load operations

• 3 Flexible efficiency modes 1, 2 and 3 that may be set up based on asset group priorities

• Economy mode - All Gensets and non-renewable "fuel consuming" assets OFF

• Unplanned Islanding or Emergency standby - Closed transition (with soft unload) or Open transition

• Utility parallel, import power from grid - Minimum import kW setpoint is maintained

• Planned Islanding or Intentional islanding

• Load shed/load add - Automatic or manual load shed up to eight (8) stages

• Utility parallel, export power to grid -Target export setpoint is maintained

Input/Output Ethernet Modules

• Package mounted and/or ship loose options (See LEHE22466).

• Supports expanded Inputs/Outputs (IO) capability of the Cat ECS 400 control: - Analog & digital I/O - Temperature sensing (RTD).

• Interface with a single ATS and other relays that allows load shed/load add with up to eight (8) load breakers.

• Configure I/O for any event (read & write function).

Control Modes | Auto | Off-Grid (Island) - Sub-modes (7):

• Pro-active add and drop - Ability to manually bring additional gensets online in anticipation of bringing on large loads - Manually turning off gensets instead of waiting for LSLD drop when the customer knows large loads are being taken offline

Applicable Codes and Standards

• UL 508A; Note codes may not be available in all model configurations. Please consult your local Cat dealer for availability.

• NEMA Type 1

• SunSpec® Compliant

Control Modes | Manual |

• Communications, power allocation test mode for site commissioning. Manually control assets and the microgrid system.

Control Modes | Idle |

• Monitoring only - Cat ECS 400 relinquish control to another site controller.

Cat Remote Breaker Control

• Utility Protection Functions - American National Standards Institute (ANSI) - Over / Under Voltage (59 / 27) - Over / Under Frequency (81O / U) - Rate of Change of Frequency (ROCOF) (81R) - Sync check (25).

Cat® Energy Control System (ECS) 400 Optional Equipment

Enclosure Options

• Security window • Service Receptacle and Light Interior 120 VAC, 5A service receptacle and light. • Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) with lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, when fully charged, provides backup for a minimum of 10 minutes with a DC load of 150 watts.

Cat Remote Breaker Control

• The Cat ECS 400 utilizes an optional external device for utility sensing breaker control.
