InteliDrive Solutions
We are an approved ComAp partner for its range of drives and controls. ComAp specialises in designing and manufacturing complete control solutions for industrial engine driven applications. Utilising ComAp solutions, we are able to offer a complete turnkey service from initial specification, created in cooperation with the customer, through to installation and system testing.
General Description
- The InteliDrive family includes highly flexible sophisticated electronic controllers, which features outstanding control, monitoring and protection for diesel and gas engines as well as driven technology. The controllers offer a number of specific functions suitable for mobile and land-based industrial applications as hydraulic system control, communication with sensors and operational devices control.
- Most commonly, these tailored applications meet the specific control requirements of engine driven compressors, pumps, crushers, drilling machines
and mobile hydraulics - These solutions are achieved by using ComAp products: InteliDrive Lite, InteliDrive DCU Industrial or InteliDrive Mobile
Fire Pump Controller
ComAp Systems UK have completed the first conversion of an existing Fire Pump installation which uses the NFPA 20 specification InteliDrive controller. InteliDrive can communicate bidirectional via a serial link using standard and proprietary CAN J1939 communication protocols to a wide range of EFI engines. The controller comes with LiteEdit PC software enabling the user to freely configure the inputs and outputs to suit individual requirements. Designed to be highly flexible, InteliDrive can be expanded by means of additional modules to increase number of binary inputs and outputs.
General Description
- The complete solution using ComAp InteliDrive FPC controller (following the NFPA 20 standard) is designed for diesel driven fire pumps applications
- The solution is based around the hardware of a standard ComAp industrial engine controller, with a proven track record for flexible and reliable control of standby and synchronized gas or diesel generator applications
- The ComAp engine controller has an LCD screen for system information and fault indication plus control buttons for switching between automatic and manual operation
- Manual operation allows the diesel to be started using local buttons on the fascia of the controller or by external buttons on the control panel
- Automatic mode of operation provides starting by a remote digital input switch or system pressure switch
- The control system incorporates two battery starter systems; the controller monitors the voltage on both battery systems, automatically switching between battery sets on a cyclic basis or low battery voltage condition
- The controller has configurable digital inputs and outputs which are set up to suit the installation requirements.
- Set point parameters for engine control and system sequencing are adjustable from the fascia of the controller, which is password protected
