DEIF POWER IN CONTROL

From diesel generators to solar panels and wind energy, and from hospitals and data centres to industrial manufacturing, switch boards, and air traffic control, power needs to flow without interruptions. Efficiently, safely, and in a climate-friendly manner.

This requires adequate control, and that is what we do at DEIF: With an intelligent and flexible generator controller or wind turbine controller, power generation becomes more efficient without additional climate impact. With a highly configurable electric switchboard, power goes where it needs to go and ensures uninterrupted uptime. And with user-friendly bridge instrumentation, ships make it safely from port to port, on time and on a minimum of fuel.

DEIF offers control solutions for your applications, from genset controllers, PLCs, and advanced power management solutions to electrical switchboards and cutting-edge wind power technology.

Power Management Systems

DEIF land power products, such as our generator controllers and electrical switchboard, are dedicated to energy efficiency that reduces fuel consumption, cut emissions, and costly maintenance intervals.

Our land power management systems are integrated solutions that include logic functions such as blackout start, load-dependent start/stop, heavy consumer control, load shedding, priority control, and plant operational modes. These system solutions operate without additional equipment such as external PLCs.

UNIQUE DEIF EMULATION SOFTWARE

DEIF EMULATION SOFTWARE SOLUTION

FAT TESTING DEIF+ SCHNEIDER PO with DEIF emulation software

For project planning and commissioning, DEIF is the only solutions provider to offer Power management system testing as a fast, simple and safe emulation procedure. Unlike PC- lone simulations, our patent-pending Emulation solution uses and verifies the functions of the real system. Designed for safe testing of the entire application prior to switchboard installation, when applied with DEIF Utility Software (USW), even complex software functions can be programmed and tested and visualised on your PC or HMI in minutes.

Particularly suitable for retrofitting, the Emulation solution lets you continue running existing applications while testing the new setup in your office, saving valuable time. This also makes it an ideal tool for demonstrations in connection with sales and for training sessions as the studies of the dynamics of the power management system can be performed without connecting to real gensets.

Improve planning, approvals and training

With the Emulation solution, all you need to do to perform complete test of your Power management systems is to turn on your controller and connect communications. The Emulation Solution’s focus on exact reproduction of system behaviour improves your planning, approvals and training. It is all done in a safe environment without the costly and excessive need of gensets and switchgear and without the risk of equipment damage and human injury. The innovative solution gives you a critical market advantage and guarantees your customers a cutting edge, finished result.

Critical power:
When down-time is no option

DEIF has a strong track record in developing emergency, standby and backup power solutions for mission-critical facilities and businesses. We have tailored solutions for a wide range of hospital services, industrial process control, data centres, telecommunications, and tv and radio broadcast systems.

DEIF’s turnkey solutions incorporate intelligent power distribution and controls, switchgear, and generator and grid protection to guarantee uninterrupted power supplies in cases of mains failure.

We design and integrate Power Management Systems with unique standby capacities and can deliver record start-up from an impressive six seconds for multiple gensets in parallel, redundant control systems, or even an entire redundant power plant.

For comparing the benefits of using PLC solutions versus multi-master controlled power management systems (MM PMS) to control the critical power system.

Green, reliable hybrid power and microgrid solutions

Increasing environmental concerns and consumers’ demand for green power, makes hybrid and microgrid power more popular than ever. A hybrid microgrid utilises a diversity of renewables and is an optimum solution for saving fuel and reducing emissions and maintenance.
DEIF offers intelligent and reliable, hybrid and microgrid control solutions for off-grid, grid-tied and combination applications, combining both solar and wind power together with fully integrated battery storage.

These system solutions operate without additional equipment such as external PLCs.

DEIF AUTOMATISATION

Automated control of load feeder breakers

The ALC Automatic Load Controller is an integrated part of DEIF power management systems. In case of generator drive when the mains grid is not available, it may be necessary to control the system load. When the ALC is placed in a section of the system, it will be capable of controlling up to 8 consumer feeder breakers.

One system can hold up to 8 ALC units, giving the possibility to control up to 64 feeder breakers. For each feeder breaker, the control can be based on a fixed power consumption value for the consumers connected to the feeder, or it can be based on a power measurement feeding a 4-20 mA signal into the ALC unit.

Automatic Load Control (1)
Based on the power calculation in the system, the ALC’s can automatically connect and disconnect consumers in a pre-determined order. This means that if a generator is tripped for any reason, the system will calculate the power flow and disconnect the necessary number of consumer feeders in order to prevent overloading the plant. If a generator has been taken out and is made available again, the system will calculate if the generator is necessary to feed the system. If so, the generator is started and, when online, the consumer feeders will connect.

Combination

Automatic changeovers between off-grid & grid-tied

Off-grid/Grid-tied
In combination applications, the system incorporates features and functionalities of both our off-grid and grid-tied technology, automatically adjusting power and reactive power references with grid support if frequency or voltage drops, or rotating the genset to automatically ensure the most fuel-optimised running mode through various load demands.

Supporting fuel-saving in grid-tied operations, all gensets can be stopped to maximise the penetration from sustainable sources. Automatic changeovers between grid-tied and off-grid in case of mains failure are possible, even during operation. The system is available both as a Power Management solution for systems multiple sustainable power sources, or as a stand-alone solution for retrofits or existing plants.
