L:\wpb_\wpb_emp1\W1200.13\p.m. Project #1\SECTION 16201-Indoor Generator and ATS.doc
A. Provide unit to shunt trip the remote main breaker and prohibit engine start
or run. The excitation voltage for the shunt trip shall come from the DC
battery circuit. See the drawings.
1. Shunt trip the main remote breaker. Provide contacts on main
breaker to remove excitation voltage.
2. Shunt trip the mainline circuit breaker. Provide contacts on main
line breaker to remove excitation voltage.
3. Stop engine and prohibit restart.
3. Lock out generator and allow reset via the engine control panel.
2.12 DAY TANK
A. Provide frame-mounted day tank with a minimum volume for 2-hour fuel
supply at 100% base-load operation.
B. Provide continuous day tank level control probe arranged to monitor fuel
level in percentage of volume. Probe shall be designed to control high-
level/return pump on, high-high level/system shut-down, and low-level
level.
C. Provide 1” day tank supply flow control manifold connection to the
existing diesel supply system. Manifold shall contain at a minimum one
(1) normally closed solenoid valve that shall open when the tank demands
fuel, isolation ball valves for the solenoid, by-pass tee with ball valve,
basket type strainer, and flow switch. Piping shall be schedule 40, ASTM
Grade A-53 black steel pipe. Threaded fittings and unions will not be
accepted.
D. Provide tank mounted fuel return pump capable of pumping against the
static head in the fuel tank and return line. In no case shall the minimum
capacity be less than 10 GPM at 50 psig when operating with diesel fuel.
E. Provide factory assembled “packaged” duplex fuel oil pump set per
generator and engine manufacturer’s recommendation and specification.
F. The control strategy for the day tank demand system, fuel return pump,
and fuel supply pumps shall be microprocessor-based, shall have sufficient
I/O to accomplish all necessary control functions, and may be integrated
into the Generator Control Panel.
