There are not limits for the power

The modules of control Atlas Copco keep to the avant-garde of the innovation with modules of very easy handle and big versatilidad, apt for any type of application by complex that it was (parallel between generators, parallel with the network, maintenance of transformers, etc.).

The importance of the utilisation of modules of control increasingly advanced roots in being able to do the installations of power more efficient; in service, consumption of fuels, pollution, reliability and a drastic decrease of the probability of stop of the equipment by failures.

To finals of the 2008, Atlas Copco presented his module of control QC4002, that substitutes to the so successful and reliable QC4001. The module QC4002 possesses, in addition to the same capacities of the previous module, a speed of processing faster and new functions to facilitate like this the work with the power generators in diverse applications. En el futuro it will be replaced by his greater brother QC 4002 MKII, much faster, with the end to adapt to the exigencias of the customers.

In addition to the new functions, the new module is more versatile to the hour of installations and options of control, since it can adapt diverse panels of control and monitor without the need of an external computer (Standard option of all the modules of control Atlas Copco) all the parameters of the team.

If we take for example a fixed installation that requires 1.000 kW, the option but simple (and the first that comes to the mind) would be to buy a team of 1.250kVAs (1MW), but in the majority of the cases these installations possess variable consumptions whose maximum would be 1.000kW. For this reason, day in day out, we find us with equipment working with inferior capacities to 30%, consuming fuel and oil in excess, and in the majority of the cases deteriorating the team unnecessarily. In these cases, when doing an installation designed under the system of PMS (System of Administration of Power according to his acronyms in English) with the module of control Atlas Copco QC4002 achieves a greater occupation of the equipment, as well as a saving in the consumptions of fuel and oil, that in the majority of the cases, can mean reduce the cost of the installation in upper values to the cost of the same equipment.

Restarting the example of the installation with 1.000kW of maximum consumption, if we study which type of load will use , and check the possible beaks, harmónicos and reactive loads that we can find, can compose the installation, so that, instead of an alone team of 1.250 kVA have, for example, 4 equipment of 325kVA connected between if in a parallel digital under the system PMS, that go working in function of the demand of power of the installation. Can program a value of reservation of power to guarantee a minimum power always available (in case to possess a beak of start very swift and upper to the nominal consumption as it would be the case of an electrical engine or a hydraulics bomb whose speed of apparition was of few seconds and no scope to start an extra team of the installation) and have the rest of the equipment so that they start or stop automatically with the demands of the installation.

In these moments, for a customer in the majority of the cases is more important the money that will invest in the use of the equipment (understand the cost of life of a product like the value of the product + the cost in fuel and oil + the cost of the repairs) that the cost of the equipment in himself. Thus a good planning and design of the installation, as well as the correct investment to the hour to buy the equipment and select his options can do that the cost of life of a team was considerably inferior.

Like additional value, when redistributing an application in several equipment, diminishes considerably the risk of stop of an installation, since when possessing 4 equipment of 325kVA, unlike one of 1.250kVA, to the hour of a failure in the installation with PMS are still working three equipment and do not mean a stop in the installation of the customer, unlike the installation of an alone team that so only an operation of routine maintenance would mean a significant stop in the installation.

This is only one of the advantages of an installation with PMS and Module Atlas Copco QC4002. They can be used in multiple applications as they are:

• Emergency by Failure of Network.

• Way Island with capacity until 16 generators (so much by analogous road as by digital road PMS).

• Fixed power: Capacity to predetermine the power to deliver by the team.

• Save of beaks: to do parallel with the network and generate this extra of power that the network penalises you in the electrical bill.

• Complete taking of the load and return to the network.

• PMS: For flexible and intelligent applications of generation of power.

• Maintenance of Transformers.

• Interconnection with other systems of control of buildings, ships, installations etc.

• Monitoring and programming by computer.

• Remote monitoring via GPS with the system Cosmos. It keep situated the team the 24 hours to the day and know the use realised to the team without need of presence in the installation.

Like profit of this system PMS with the module QC400 is important to stand out that, in Atlas Copco, each team that do to work generates the minimum half impact environingingmental possible.

Thanks to our environingingmental politics, the motors that use are of last generation and of minimum broadcasts, that fulfil the most demanding European environingingmental norms of pollution by CO2 and Noise. The equipment are tight to reduce to zero the pollution by contribution of liquids to the floor, housing until 110% of the liquids of the team. The materials used are of maximum quality, the levels of noise are low; but when being a global problem, the solution has to be of all.

It is necessary to begin to leave to be simply mere viewers in the fight against the pollution and contribute, by means of installations more efficient and designed to the measure of the needs, solutions that diminish the contributions of pollution to the environingingment and to his time, are profitable for the sector.

In this line, in the last months, Portable Power has tended the opportunity to be present in a series of sportive evento through his generators, where has been the option chosen by our customers because of the low level of audible and environingingmental pollution that present the equipment.

In the Masters of Madrid, with the QAC 1000

The generators of Atlas Copco, through his customer Hertz, have been present in the Masters of Tennis celebrated the past May in The Magic Box of Madrid, one of the sportive installations more modern of the world, with tracks that can use in the open air or covers according to the needs of the moment. To supply the power to all the enclosure have used three generators QAC 1000 of Atlas Copco, more other three in reservation working in parallel.

The Formula 1 of the generators

In the Big Prize of Europe of Formula 1 2012, celebrated in Valency the past month of June, also used three generators model QAC 1000 to contribute and ensure the electrical current of the paddock and of the pit lane, where tune the trucks of Formula 1 before and during the competition. Our customer Hertz was the attendant of all the setting and supply.

There is not two without three! The generators of Atlas Copco presents in the Eurocopa 2012

Through the company Paulino Alonso, Atlas Copco has contributing the necessary power for the transmission with giant screens of the Eurocopa 2012. The event took place in the inmediaciones of the Stadium Santiago Bernabéu, in Madrid, where the people could enjoy of the parties and encourage to the Spanish selection thanks to the current contributed by the models of generator QAS 200 and QAS 100 of Atlas Copco.

Likewise, the generators QAC 1000, QAC 750, QAS 150 and QAS 40 have been the attendants to supply the necessary power for the evento of recibimiento and celebration of the victory of Spain in the Eurocopa 2012, where the assistants could enjoy of musical concerts and follow to his victorious team through the screens enabled.

Diego Moreno, responsible of the division of Portable Power in Spain, signals in this regard: “The low audible level of the generators and the minimum environingingmental impact that present the equipment were the key for his election, since in this type of evento the sound has to be flawless”
