The AGC 150 Hybrid comes with all the necessary functions for protection and control of a hybrid installation with PV and genset. The controller is ideal for small and medium PV plants with up to 16 inverters, e.g. rooftop PV plants. 

When mounted on the genset, the AGC 150 Hybrid controls the PV power and functions as a dedicated hybrid controller. The AGC 150 can also be applied as a stand-alone controller, interlinking the PV inverters and genset controller.

The AGC 150 Hybrid controls up to 2 gensets for synchronising or non-synchronising projects, in island or parallel to the mains modes. The AGC 150 Hybrid handles the power production from the PV inverters and genset to give the highest PV penetration and the lowest CO2 emission.

To ensure a sufficient minimum genset load, the AGC 150 Hybrid supports the load with PV power in a safe an and reliable way.

AGC 150: Easy and safe to use

Get access to important genset information quickly via the sunlight readable LCD.

The controller features illuminated buttons that smoothly guide the operator and make it very easy and intuitive to operate. Only buttons relevant for a function are visible to the user. Get easy access to the most common functions with configurable shortcuts.

The AGC 150 provides up to three levels (customer, service, and master) of password-protected and role-based access. Configure parameters for each level and have only relevant settings displayed.

AGC 150: Built to last – also in green energy applications

The AGC 150 comes with uncompromising quality. The controller is made of robust materials and is built to last. It has undergone several tests showing that it stands wear and tear in all types of harsh environments.

ASC 4 Solar

Ideally suited for hybrid power plants, the integrated ASC-4 solar hybrid controller can interface to PV solar inverters, battery inverters and, for instance, diesel genset power sources. Moreover, it is compatible with leading sky imager solutions, enabling the ASC-4 to predict the weather and PV production and take counter-active measures.

Designed specifically to serve as a reliable, fully integrated and optimising link between sustainable power plants and genset power plants, DEIF’s automatic sustainable controller, ASC-4 Solar, is a renowned, market-leading solution for the industry. 

Maximising sustainable power penetration

The ASC-4 Solar will in any operation mode automatically maximise sustainable power penetration, depending on the total load demand to the hybrid without compromising constraints such as minimum genset load demand.

Minimum genset load in island operation

Minimum genset load constraint is available in the ASC-4 Solar. The constraint applies in island operation only. This constraint will cause the sustainable power penetration to decrease in case it is compromised. This is to secure a certain amount of load on the gensets, eliminating the risk of reverse power situations and impure combustion and exhaust problems.

Spinning reserve

The ASC-4 Solar offers spinning reserve support as a percentage of the produced power, as part of an existing superior system (for instance an existing PLC system) or by means of short-term cloud detection functionality, depending on your application and requirements.

Ideal for self-consumption applications

While in grid parallel mode, the ASC-4 Solar is capable of feeding surplus PV energy to the grid and generate profit in accordance with grid operator feed-in tariffs. Alternatively, the ASC-4 Solar can regulate the PV production to match the self-consumption, thereby preventing any feed-in of PV power to the grid if prohibited by grid operator regulations. 

Power management applications

DEIF’s Power Management system fully integrates the sustainable power plant and the genset plant into a unity. The ASC-4 is connected to the CAN bus constituting the internal DEIF Power Management communication link. For that reason, this approach is only applicable for plants equipped with AGC-4 or AGC 200 controllers.

Stand-alone applications

In stand-alone applications, the ASC-4 knows little about the surrounding environment in which it is placed. Based on power readings and breaker positions, the ASC-4 Solar determines the power references to the sustainable power plant. This approach is applicable for integrating sustainable power in already commissioned genset plants, whether they are equipped with DEIF controllers or not. Stand-alone applications support up to 16 gensets. The ASC-4 Solar for stand-alone applications also comes in a cost-effective version without the powerful M4 power management module.

Plug’n’play HMI touch screen

For improved user-friendliness, we’ve even created a plug and play touch screen display for hybrid projects. It’ll present all relevant data to you in real time, for instance power metre and inverter readings, PV penetration/performance ratio and much, much more.

Designed specifically to serve as a reliable, fully integrated and optimising link between sustainable power plants (fitted with for instance PV solar inverters and battery inverters) and diesel genset power plants, DEIF’s automatic sustainable controller, ASC-4, is a new, market-leading solution for the industry.

Off-grid hybrid power

Off-grid
Minimised fuel consumption – maximised PV penetration

Securing uptime with intelligent spinning reserve features, this automated solution guarantees minimum fuel consumption by maximising PV penetration without compromising minimum genset load requirements.

The DEIF power management automatically optimises the number of gensets connected to the busbar. In plants with different size gensets, the system even rotates the gensets automatically to ensure the most fuel-optimised genset match in accordance with the load request. Using CAN bus links between each power source, the reactive system boasts fast response times to changes in load demand or weather conditions.

The system is available as a Power Management or stand-alone solution for retrofits or existing plants.

ASC-4 Battery

 
 

Designed specifically to serve as a reliable, fully integrated and optimizing link between sustainable power plants and genset power plants, DEIF’s automatic sustainable controller, ASC-4 Battery, offers seamless energy storage integration in hybrid microgrid applications.

AC- or DC-coupled

ASC-4 Battery is ideal for both AC- and DC-coupled applications. For AC-coupled systems, you can define battery charging and discharging scheme. Using the chargeScheme, you’ll also be able to define the energy sources (gensets, PV or Mains) you allow for charging purposes.

Energy or power source

The ASC-4 Battery handles applications that use battery power as the primary power source (instead of gensets) as well as applications that use battery power for short-term support (for instance to support gensets for a short period of time) equally well.

Energy source: The battery is intended to supply a load being the only source connected to the AC bus. Generating capacity will be subtracted the spinning reserve requirement for the diesel genset plant. This may result in all gensets stopping depending on load demand.

When the state of charge falls below the predefined power source threshold, the ASC will automatically switch into power source operation and startup the required number of gensets.Once the state of charge is above the energy source threshold, the ASC will return to energy source operation.

Power source: The battery is not intended to supply a load being the only source connected to the AC bus. Power source is used to take peak loads until genset start and improving power quality. The power reference is zero per default. 

The reference will be set equal to the excessive loading only if the gensets are overloaded. The generating capacity will be subtracted any spinning reserve requested from PV, suppressing excessive diesel gensets on the busbar.
