LS-5 Series V2 LS-512/522 2breaker Multi-Breaker Control for complex power management applications

Woodward’s LS-5 Series are synchronizer controllers with integrated mains decoupling and protection features. The applications range from independent synch check relay to complex power management relay with multiple utility feeds, bus tie breakers and group breakers in combination with Woodward’s easYgen-3400XT/3500XT equipped genset controllers. Wiring efforts are reduced to a minimum, since only one CAN bus connection is required between all LS-5 and easYgen controllers to transmit AC measurement signals, I/O states, flags etc.

The LS-5×2 relays simplify the applications where the load bus is served by a mains circuit breaker (MCB) and a generator group breaker (GGB). It senses voltage and current, quantifies the synchronization parameters and transmits the signals via CAN bus to the easYgen-3400XT/3500XT genset controllers. The two breakers control capability along with mains decoupling and protection features make it a perfect choice for transfer switch control under guidance of an external supervisory control. The LS-5×2 is software selectable to be applied as an LS-5×1 thereby facilitating hard-ware standardization to OEM switchgear builders, generator packagers, and system integrators.

LS-5 Series V2 LS-511/521 1breaker Circuit Breaker Control & Protection

Woodward’s LS-5 Series relays are synchronizer controllers with integrated mains de-coupling and protection features. The applications range from independent synch check relay to complex power management with multiple utility feeds, bus tiebreakers and group breakers in combination with Woodward’s easYgen-3400XT/3500XT equipped genset controllers. Wiring efforts are reduced to a minimum, since only one CAN bus connection is required between all LS-5 and easYgen controllers to transmit AC measurements signals, I/O states, flags, etc.

The LS-5×1 devices manage synchronization, loading and unloading on each bus segment and send the required voltage, frequency, and phase angle references via CAN bus to the easYgen-3400XT/3500XT genset controllers. When serving an incoming main breaker, it automatically detects mains failure, performs mains decoupling and sends the start signal to the easYgen. The LS-5×1 is software selectable to be applied as an independent synch check relay, mains circuit breaker control or bus tie-breaker control thereby providing exceptional versatility and value for OEM switchgear builders, generator packagers, and system integrators.

DTSC-200A Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) Controller

The DTSC-200A (Digital Transfer Switch Control) controls the transfer of electrical power from one source to another for hospitals, data centers, office buildings, manufacturing plants and similar where lights out is not an option. The extremely versatile DTSC-200A ATS controller is easily configured for a wide range of automatic transfer switch applications including Main-Gen, Gen-Gen or Main-Main systems using circuit breakers or latching contactors. Source transfer can be performed as open, delayed, or closed transition with in-phase monitoring (synch check) that can be enabled for all transition types to ensure safe transfer. The closed transition over-lap time can be limited to less than 100ms for momentary, make-before-break transfers, or extended indefinitely for paralleling via discrete input. “Custom” features like transfer inhibit, source selection, load shed/restore, elevator pre-signal and engine test programs come standard.
