APPLICATION OF AUTOMATIC CONTROL UNIT

The automatic control unit KEA 081-NSTR is
applied in emergency power supply installations.
Difference to the type KEA 071-NSTR is that this
module does not need a relay unit (RZ) because
18 output relays (max. 1 amp., 35 V GS) are inte-
grated. The unit may be applied to 12 - or 24 volt
supply voltage, the voltage range is selected by an
internal switch. For monitoring of the installation
and of the genset 14 external fault signal indica-
tions, and 4 internal fault signals each, initiated
from mains- and generator voltage sensor, are
provided.
A measuring accessory MZ 081 is required in
order to measure the mains- and generator volt-
age. This measuring accessory (the connecting
cable is not included) belongs to the scope of de-
livery. The mains- and generator voltage is meas-
ured in 3-phase mode. It is monitored for:
− under- and over voltage,
− under- and over frequency,
− asymmetry.
The functions of the output relays and of the rele-
vant parameters are programmable by means of a
Laptop. The KEA unit is provided with an optical
fibre conductor (OFC) interface, by which an
automation control system (a protocol converter
might be required), a fault signal extension or a
remote monitoring system (TELEMON) may be
connected.
The automatic unit contains following soft-
ware:
− mains failure detection,
− activation of start pre-conditions,
− starting-up of engine on start release,
− change-over from mains to generator supply,
− frequency control on island operation mode,
− genset monitoring and protection,
− detection of re-established mains voltage,
− change-over to mains supply,
− running-out and shutdown of the genset,
− battery voltage sensor.

DESIGN

The automatic control unit is provided for installa-
tion into the switchboard front door. Protection
degree IP 44 is attained at installed status. The
fault signal indications are marked by inter-
changeable text labels. The measuring accessory
MZ 081 is fitted with a snap-on fastening for DIN
EN 50 022 rail. It is provided for installation on
the mounting plate and fulfils the protection de-
gree IP 00. It is connected to the automatic unit by
means of a multi-core cable and serves for mains-
and generator voltage monitoring.
The automatic unit is fitted with an optical fi-
bre conductor (OFC) interface, by which a PC or
Modem can be connected. By this the following
settings are enabled (input is password-protected):
− coding of the fault signal indications for
o warning or shutdown,
o NC- or NO circuits,
o delayed or un-delayed monitoring,
o generator C.B. tripping /not tripping,
− programming of the response values of voltage
and frequency sensors, of timers and other
function blocks,
− indication of the actual status of the external
signal contacts, of actual values of voltages,
frequencies, timers and the engine speed.

OPERATION AND FUNCTION

All indicating and operating elements are ar-
ranged clearly visible on the automatic unit front
plate. The operation modes are to be selected by
means of four push-buttons with integrated LEDs,
showing the actual selected position. The push-
button selector may be electrically locked-out by
an input (e.g. by connecting a key-operated con-
trol switch); so an unintentional or unacceptable
change of a decided selection can be avoided. By
means of the push-button selector, the following
modes of operation are to be selected.
 TA81NX0-E - 4 / 10 -
PUSH BUTTON SELECTOR: OFF
On connecting the automatic control unit to bat-
tery voltage, this operational mode will be pre-
selected automatically (Reset Function), to pre-
vent the genset from starting unintentionally. On
switching-over from any other operational mode
to position OFF, following will be initiated:
PUSH BUTTON SELECTOR: MANUAL
On selecting this operational mode, a relay, which
is configured for the function AUXILIARY DRIVES
ON is energized at once. The LED START INDICA-
TION shows flashing light. In case the start can be
enabled, a reply signal is required (e.g. gas leak-
age tested, exhaust gas flap open, pre-lubrication
pressure attained). The blinking LED START IN-
DICATION changes (on engine stand-still) to
steady light. In case no starting release is required,
the input must be permanently connected to L[-]
potential. Now the engine may be started-up by
pressing the push-button START.
By means of the mimic diagram arranged push
button MAINS OFF (O) the mains C.B. may be dis-
connected, even on engine standstill. By means of
the push button MAINS ON (I) it may be connected
again.
Provided, the generator voltage and frequency
are within their rated value limits, then by means
of the push-buttons MAINS OFF respectively GEN.
ON, change-over to genset operation may take
place.
PUSH BUTTON SELECTOR: AUTOMATIC
In case of faultless mains voltage the mains
voltage supply is connected and the genset is on
standby mode. The mains voltage is permanently
measured and monitored. As soon as the pro-
grammed limit values of voltage or frequency are
no longer kept, the condition will be indicated by
means of the corresponding mimic diagram ar-
ranged LEDs (f<, f> U<, U>). After running-out
of a programmable time lag the genset will be
started-up. The automatic unit may be pro-
grammed in a manner either to initiate always a
starting-up in case of mains failure, or starting-up
takes place only in case of a simultaneous remote
start command is given. This function enables an
additional start interlock.
At the automatic start procedure first of all a
relay is energized which performs the function
AUXILIARY DRIVES ON (relay must be pro-
grammed). The LED START INDICATION shows
blinking light. In case the start can be released
06/2002
− Shut-down of genset (if running),
− Switching-off of all indicated fault signals, ex-
cept fault indications 13 and 14, as long as the
corresponding alarm contact is active,
− Reset of automatic unit, in case the external
EMERGENCY STOP contact is not active.
Changing back to mains supply takes place by
means of the push button MAINS ON. On pressing
the push button GEN. OFF, the generator C.B. is
disconnected indeed, but the mains C.B. does not
close accordingly. Connection of the mains C.B.
has to be made manually.
Similarly the mains C.B. is not automatically
connected in case a fault signal (e.g. GENERATOR
OVER CURRENT) appears during generator opera-
tion, which disconnects the generator.
Pressing the ON push buttons is non-effective
in case the voltage of the selected system (mains
or generator) is not within its pre-set limit values
or in case the phase sequence is incorrect.
The remote start command does not effect an
automatic generator circuit breaker closing. To
stop the genset, the push-button selector is to be
set to position OFF (no remote start command
alive) to position AUTOMATIC.
(e.g. gas leakage checked, exhaust gas flap
opened, pre-lubrication pressure attained), a reply
signal for the start release must take place. The
blinking LED START INDICATION changes
thereby (on engine standstill) to steady light. Pro-
vided no starting release is required, the input
must be permanently connected to negative poten-
tial [L-].
If the genset should not start, even after com-
plete cranking sequence program has elapsed, the
fault signal OVERCRANK/ENGINE TROUBLE will
occur and the automatic unit will be locked-out.
When the generating set, after running-up, has
reached nominal voltage and frequency, the mains
circuit breaker will be disconnected and after a
time lag (about 2 sec., programmable) the genera-
tor circuit breaker is closed. After mains voltage
re-establishing a delay time starts running-down
(reconnection delay period) before the generator
C.B. is disconnected and after elapsed change-
 TA81NX0-E - 5 / 10 -
over delay the mains C.B. is connected again. To
prevent the engine from a heat increase, the genset
will run unloaded for an adjusted idle run time
(cooling-down period), and then will be shut-
down.
The automatic unit may be programmed in a
manner to initiate the start and change-over to
generator operation also in case the mains circuit
breaker is tripped by a disturbance (for
switchboards according to VDE 107). The genset
is started-up automatically in that case and takes
over the emergency power supply. The mains
C.B. tripping is indicated by a fault signal. The
fault signal MAINS C.B. TRIPPED must be deleted
to enable mains reconnection operation. In case of
faultless mains voltage the automatic unit changes
back to mains supply after the reconnection delay
period has elapsed.
PUSH BUTTON SELECTOR: TRIAL / TEST
On selecting this operational mode, a relay, which
is configured for the function AUXILIARY DRIVES
ON is energized. The LED START INDICATION
shows flashing light. In case the start can be en-
abled (conditions similar to selector switch posi-
tion MANUAL), the blinking LED START INDICA-
TION changes to steady light. The starting pro-
gram is initiated after start release.

are within their rated value limits, then by means
of the mimic diagram located push-buttons GEN.

Additionally to the start initiation by mains failure
the genset start can be initiated also by means of
two remote start commands in this push button se-
lector position:
− start along with change-over,
− start without change-over.
At a remote start along with change-over to
generator operation, the genset is started-up simi-
lar to mains failure mode. Also change-back is
similar to mains re-establishing. The input start
without change-over is provided for e.g. sprin-
kler installations. In case the genset is started-up
via this input, only the starting program is running
down, no change-over takes place. If now a mains
failure should occur, however a change-over to
emergency power supply takes place.

If during test operation mode a mains failure
occurs or a remote start with change-over com-
mand is given, change-over to generator operation

breaker disconnection is impossible.
To stop the genset, the push-button selector is
to be set to position OFF or (no remote start com-
mand alive) to position AUTOMATIC.
In case the diesel engine requires pre-glowing, ar-
rangements for this must be realized externally.

OPERATIONAL- AND FAULT SIGNAL INDICATIONS

Above the push button selector there are, arranged The following indications are provided as a basic
on the left side in two verticals, LEDs for indicat- fitting:
ing important relevant operating and fault events.

CONTROLS ON

After starting-up of the genset, this green LED tion is switched-off, as soon as the shut-down
signal indicates activating of monitoring circuits, procedure is beginning.
which are depending on genset's run. The indica-

AUTOMATIC UNIT LOCKED

This indication shows, that an external EMER-
GENCY STOP push-button has been pressed or that
a faulty condition has caused the genset to shut-
down. The red LED indicates, that the automatic
control unit as well as the genset is locked-out for
any further starting attempt.
To reset the control unit, the push-button selector
has to be set to position OFF(RESET). Prior to this,
the reason for trouble has to be eliminated, or the
EMERGENCY STOP push-button has to be
unlocked.

START INDICATION

This signal is lighting, if there is a starting de-
mand, processed by the automatic control unit at
AUTOMATIC mode or if the operational mode
MANUAL or TEST is selected. As long as there is
no enable signal for starting, the LED START IN-
DICATION is flashing. On enable signal, the LED
changes to steady light.
The indication is switched-off automatically,
as soon as the genset's actual speed on running-up
exceeds the firing speed. Now, it is not possible,
to actuate the starter motor, not even manually.

OVERCRANK / ENGINE TROUBLE

This signal is switched-on, in case shut-down command emitted by the automatic

− the genset has not started, even after the com-
plete start sequence program has elapsed (si-
multaneously with signal AUTOMATIC UNIT
LOCKED),
− the genset came to a standstill without any
control unit (with signal AUTOMATIC UNIT
LOCKED),
− the genset is still running even after complete
stop time has elapsed (without signal AUTO-
MATIC UNIT LOCKED).

MIMIC DIAGRAM / VOLTAGE SENSOR

The mimic diagram symbolizes the mains incom-
ing, the generator, mains- and generator circuit
breaker and the bus bar. Push-buttons are assem-
bled for:
− MAINS ON (I),
− MAINS OFF (O),
− GENERATOR ON (I),
− GENERATOR OFF (O).
The position of the mains- respectively generator
circuit breaker is indicated by green LEDs, ar-
ranged below the corresponding push-buttons.
Functions of the voltage sensors, switching points
and delay times can be classified. Four red and
two green LEDs each are provided for the mains-
and generator voltage monitoring. These LEDs
indicate, whether the voltages are within their
nominal ranges or whether and which deviations
are present.
These LEDs, of first line below the mains- re-
spectively generator symbol (from left to right),
are indicating:
− under frequency (<f),
− voltage / frequency within nominal range,
− over frequency (>f).
 TA81NX0-E - 7 / 10 -
The second LED line of LEDs indicates:
− under voltage / incorrect phase sequence(<U),
− voltage / frequency within nominal range,
− over voltage (>U).
The signal "Undervoltage" is also presented in
case the measuring voltage of the generator is
connected with a left turning rotating field or, in
case the voltage shows a voltage vector asymme-
try.
The monitoring criteria of the mains-and gen-
erator voltage sensor may by classified in such a
manner that:
− the sensor is non-effective,
− the corresponding LED operates as a static
indication for the voltage sensor output,
− or the voltage sensor output is connected to an
internal fault alarm.
Static LED indication only
The corresponding red LED is alight, when an en-
abled monitoring detects a deviation from nomi-
nal value. During drop-out time lag, the mimic
diagram arranged green LEDs remain lighted, un-
til the delay time has elapsed. The function will be
processed now internally.
FAULT SIGNALS
The basic configuration of the automatic control
unit include the possibility of processing 24 single
fault signals, by which 4 each are provided for the
mains- and generator voltage monitoring and 14
are freely applicable by the user. The fault signals
are basically divided into three groups:
− The operation depending fault signals (e.g.
LOW OIL PRESSURE) are just released for
monitoring with a time lag after running-up of
the genset, noticeable by the LED signal CON-
TROLS ON.
− The operation independent fault signals (e.g.
BATTERY UNDERVOLTAGE) are permanently
active, except the selector switch is set to po-
sition OFF.
− The fault signals 13 and 14 are selector
switch - and operation independent. They
are applied for indications (e.g. LEAKAGE),
which have to be permanently signalled, even
on selector switch position OFF. The horn is
not energized in position OFF, but the fault
signals are included into the common alarms.
These fault signals are acting similar to nor-
mal fault signals on having set the selector
switch to any operational position (but not
OFF).
06/2002
When voltage or frequency values have recovered
to pre-determined limits, the red LED goes out at
once and a delay release time starts running down.
The green LEDs are flushing during this period
and will change to steady light, when the delay
time has elapsed. Internally, now the voltage sys-
tem is recognized as "within nominal limits".
The LEDs of the generator voltage sensor are
out of order in case the operational mode OFF is
selected, or in case no starting command is alive
during operational mode AUTOMATIC. The LEDs
of the mains voltage sensor are always active.
LED indication along with fault signal
When programmed for fault alarm signals in case
of deviation from nominal voltage or frequency
values, the alarm will be activated only after drop-
out time lag has elapsed. The green LEDs extin-
guish and the corresponding red LED is actuated
as a normal fault indication, i.e. it is flashing, the
horn sounds. This signal is, similar to all other
fault indications, included into the common alarm
signal.
The eight signals, which are internally used to
monitor the mains- and generator voltage, are:
− mains under- and over voltage,
− mains under- and over frequency,
− generator under- and over voltage,
− generator under- and over frequency.
If, during automatic mode the generator is discon-
nected by means of a fault signal, the engine is
stopped after elapsed running-out period and the
automatic unit is locked-out.
Coming-up of a fault signal is indicated by
blinking LEDs. Simultaneously the audible signal
is activated (for the pre-set duration). By means of
a pulse given by the push button ALARM OFF (or
automatically after running-out of the pre-set
time) the audible signal is silenced, along with a
change of the blinking indication into steady light.
Several warning alarms which could occur in se-
quence, would repeatedly release the audible
alarm; each alarm is indicated by the correspond-
ing blinking LEDs as well.
In case of warning alarms, another pulse by push
button ALARM OFF will cancel the visible signal,
provided the matter of alarm has been eliminated.
 TA81NX0-E - 8 / 10 - 06/2002

In case of signals, which lead to a shut-down of
generator set, any subsequent operation is locked
out by the automatic control unit. This condition
is shown by the signal AUTOMATIC DEVICE
LOCKED. To reset the automatic control unit, after
having eliminated the faulty condition (for exam-
ple, unlocking of an external EMERGENCY STOP
push-button), the push-button selector has to be
set to position OFF. Now it is possible, to select
again an operational mode.

OVERSPEED

For overspeed monitoring either the internal gen- overspeed alarm, this fault signal causes always a
erator frequency or the frequency of a separate genset shut-down, even in case all fault signals are
speed sensor (pick-up or tacho generator) may be configured for warning only (e.g. on sprinkler sys-
used. Provided a fault signal is programmed for tems).

voltage monitoring. To monitor this signal prop- monitored.
erly, the voltage supply for automatic unit KEA

FAULT SIGNALS 13 AND 14

These two signals may be delayed from contract
closing 0 up to 240 sec., i.e. the alarm contact
must be active for the programmed time delay to
initiate a fault signal. Furthermore these two fault
signals are also active on selector switch position
OFF, however without audible signal. Criteria,
which have to be always signalled, can be moni-
tored by this (e.g. tank filling level, leakage warn-
ing).

INTERNAL SIGNAL: MAINS C.B. TRIPPED

The mains circuit breaker can be monitored
against automatic tripping (e.g. by installed over
current tripping devices). In case this fault signal
is provided (necessary to fulfil the VDE 107 rule),
starting-up takes place on push button selector po-
sition AUTOMATIC respectively a change-over to
emergency power supply during operational mode
TEST. The fault signal is internally triggered in
case no position indication signal (mains C.B. is
ON) takes place after running-out of the mains
C.B. closing pulse.

INTERNAL SIGNAL: GENERATOR C.B. TRIPPED

The generator circuit breaker can be monitored
against automatic tripping (e.g. on installed over
current tripping device). Therefore a valid fault
signal number must be programmed (see Service
Instruction) for this function. Additionally the
function "warning/shut-down" must be pro-
grammed for the assigned fault signal. The fault
signal is internally triggered in case no position
indication signal (Generator C.B. is ON) takes
place after running-out of the generator closing
pulse.

INTERNAL SIGNAL: ENGINE DOES NOT STOP (ENGINE TROUBLE)

If, after running-out of the stopping period, the By this an alarm is initiated in case the stopping
"Running" signal of the engine is still active, the device of the engine (e.g. defective stopping sole-
fault signal OVERCRANK / TROUBLE is triggered. noid, faulty gas magnetic valve) is out of work.
 TA81NX0-E - 9 / 10 -
INTERNAL SIGNALS OF VOLTAGE SENSORS
The frequency - and voltage deviations of the
mains and generator may be indicated as fault
signals. Provided the function is programmed as
fault signal, the indication on variant voltage takes
place as late as the dropping delay has running-
out. The green LEDs are extinguished then and
the corresponding red LED is illuminated as a
normal fault signal, i.e. it is blinking. The horn
STARTING SEQUENCE
The following parameters are provided for the
start/stop sequence:
− start delay,
− cranking time,
− time lag between STARTER ON and IGNITION
ON,
− time lag between IGNITION ON and GAS
VALVE OPEN,
− break time,
− delay time CONTROLS ON,
− mains recovery delay,
− cooling-down period,
− stopping time,
− number of cranking attempts,
− speed detection by tacho generator,
FREQUENCY CONTROL ON EMERGENCY POWER SUPPLY MODE
During emergency power supply mode, the fre-
quency can be regulated to a nominal value, inde-
pendent of the genset load. Therefore, the engine
must be equipped with a speed control device or
with an electronic governor, fitted with control
input.
EMERGENCY STOP / EMERGENCY OFF (EXTERNAL)
Only one short pulse is needed to initiate the
EMERGENCY STOP procedure. Independent of ac-
tual operational mode, the following functions
will be activated:
− tripping of generator C.B.,
− shut-down of genset,

sounds and the relevant common alarm is acti-
vated.
A fault signal does not effect the voltage sen-
sor output. If, e.g. the fault signal GEN UNDER
FREQUENCY was active as warning signal, but the
frequency is correct again, the fault signal remains
active but for the internal control action of the
automatic unit the generator voltage is considered
as "correct".

− RUNNING signal by charging dynamo D+,
− RUNNING signal by generator voltage,

− nominal speed, drop value.
In case of using diesel engines, fitted with pre-
glowing device, an external pre-glow push-button
must be provided, operative on operational mode
MANUAL. For an automatic start sequence, the
pre-glowing time (start delay) can be pro-
grammed.
The automatic unit emits adjusting pulses to the
speed control device in case the frequency is not
within classified limit values. There is a break be-
tween two pulses, which enables the engine to
carry out the speed adjusting command.
