    InteliMains 1010

The newest generation of our Mains controllers, the InteliMains 1010 works together with our InteliGen 1000 controller to synchronise a set of gen-sets to the mains/utility whenever needed. It comes with pre-programmed functions that enable fast and easy configuration according to your needs.

The InteliMains 1010 offers: 

  • Cooperatation with ComAp's InteliGen 1000 controllers forming a solution with up to 64 units without any extra repeaters or extensions
  • Keeping your business and data as safe as possible, meeting the ISA 62443 level 2 - level 3 security requirements
  • Hot-swap redundancy feature enabling a redundant unit to take over in case the primary controller fails, helping to minimise solution downtime*
  • CAN bus redundancy ensuring that a redundant CAN line be created and take over in case of CAN failure*
  • Modbus Client which can initiate Modbus communication and control 3rd party devices* 
  • Large built-in PLCComAp has integrated Programable Logic Controller tightly with our standard line of controllers. This helps our customers to cut costs, minimise points of failure for advanced systems, and overcome any challenge that may occur. interpreter with the use of ComAp's free PLC Editor
  • Compatible load/VAr sharing and power management with other ComAp solutions
  • Dynamic spinning reserveDynamic Spinning Reserve allows the system to react flexibly to changes in power produced by renewable energy sources. ComAp controllers can react to requested spinning reserve and keep the sufficient amount of gen-sets running to cover the drop-in output of the renewable source (e.g. when cloud cover is heavier). preventing supply drops in hybrid installations with PVs
  • Multi ECU (Electronic Control Unit) enabling communication with more independent J1939 devices such as Engine Control Unit, AVR modules, Breaker, etc.
  • Built-in CAN bus and event-based history logger for easy and fast troubleshooting
  • User-defined protections and setpoints on top of default protection
  • AirGateComAp’s controllers incorporate AirGate connection technology to make access to the internet as simple as possible.
    AirGate enables our controllers to connect to the internet using the existing network infrastructure, negotiating firewalls and VPN systems and removing the requirement for static and public IP addresses.
    2.0 for easy connection to your equipment remotely, without worrying about your asset’s IP address
  • Remote control and monitoring of your gen-set operations with WebSupervisor, our cloud-based fleet management tool
  • Peak shaving for limiting the import from the mains (e.g. due to higher prices)
  • Load shedding ensuring the most important loads are running even when there is a lack of power
  • Secure user management
  • A wide range of plug & play displays with automatically generated content that can be easily edited in our free Screen Editor or InteliSCADA
  • Signal sharing over the CAN bus among a group of control units
  • Possibility to have a mains application in a gen-set controller with firmware upload functions
  • One hardware for more applications, enabling easy switching between MCB, MGCB or BTB application
  • More precise measuring with a True Root Mean Square measurement feature  

* Features available with a software key.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I change the controller firmware? Where can I get the latest firmware?

You can download the latest firmware package on the webpage of the device. You can easily navigate there through the ‘Products’ section or just use the Search function. If you cannot find the firmware on the website or if you require different than the offered version do not hesitate to contact our support team.

The firmware upgrade itself is easy to perform. You need the appropriate configuration software and a connection to the controller (preferably a direct connection). Prior to initiating the update process, we strongly recommend you to save a complete backup of your device.

It usually consists of several steps:
  • Create a controller back up.
  • Update the device firmware. It will contain default Configuration Archive and default Application.
  • Change the Application (SPtM, MiNT, MCB, MGCB, BTB, etc) to the required type (by programming appropriate default archive to the controller).
  • Use the Import Configuration Wizard to restore your previous configuration. In some cases manual interventions might be needed during this step.
  • Optional: Update the connected display firmware or device communication module firmware.
Should you be unsuccessful in programming the new version, the rollback procedure is to install previous firmware version and use your back up to restore the controller to its original state before the firmware upgrade was attempted.

What do SPtM, MINT, MGCB stand for?

SPtM = Single Parallel to Mains
MINT = Multiple gen-sets with INTernal sync and load sharing
MGCB = Master Generator Circuit Breaker

ComAp’s world is full of abbreviations but once you get a basic understanding of their meanings, you will find them useful when reading the documentation or communicating with us.
 

Do you support communication to (IVECO, Cummins, MAN, VOLVO, etc.) ECUs?

Yes, ComAp devices are capable of communication with electronic engine control units (ECUs) from the majority of engine manufacturers.

Typically, you connect the ECU directly to the controller using CAN bus. If the ECU does not support the J1939 communication protocol you need to use a communication interface either on the ECU side (such as SAM CCB2 or SmartConnect modules) or on the ComAp side using the I-CB communication bridge.

The communication is typically bi-directional so we support reading of values from the ECU as well as sending commands to the ECU (Start, Stop, etc) and controlling the engine RPM.

For details including physical connection, configuration steps and troubleshooting help please consult the Electronic Engines Support Guide available on this website.

How do I synchronize a gen-set to the mains? What AVRs do you support? What Speed Governonrs do you support?

The ComAp product portfolio includes controllers that can control voltage and speed and with those products our controllers are able to synchronise to the mains.

Synchronizing a gen-set to mains (or multiple gensets to each other) is a procedure which requires the following conditions to be met before you connect the two electrical systems together:
  • Matching voltage in all phases of both systems.
  • Matching frequency of both systems.
  • 0° phase angle between both systems. (Or as close to 0° as possible.)
  • Matching sense of rotation of both systems.
The last condition is predetermined by wiring and needs to be checked prior to commissioning, the rest can be controlled by a ComAp device. In order to do so you need to interface the generator AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator) and the engine Speed Governor. ComAp controllers designed for paralleling operations typically have outputs designed for this connection. Thanks to this we are able to control the generator voltage and the engine speed (and subsequently phase angle).
 
The procedure of configuring the speed and voltage regulation is described in the relevant documentation. The same document also contains the list of supported AVRs and Speed Governors including the wiring and configuration setpoints.

What is AirGate?

AirGate  allows our controllers to connect to the internet using existing network infrastructure, negotiating firewalls and VPN systems and removing the requirement for static and public IP addresses.

ComAp controls incorporate the AirGate connection technology to make access to the internet as simple as possible. AirGate was designed to overcome the issues commonly faced when trying to connect remote equipment using internet based communications.

AirGate allows our controllers to connect to the internet using the existing network infrastructure, negotiating firewalls and VPN systems and removing the requirement for static and public IP addresses.

Once AirGate in the controller is activated even if the IP address is changed, our configuration and monitoring tools will keep track of the remote equipment.
