Three Caterpillar gensets installed with Woodward LSM 9907 -252 REVA 24VDC having load sharing signal 0 – 3Vdc (0 – 100 % load) are already running smoothly in parallel and proportionally sharing load demand as per their manufactured capacity rating.
* Can we install fourth genset GE Jenbacher JGS420 on same bus which provides load sharing signal 4-20mA (0 – 100 % load) to run parallel and smoothly share the load as per their manufactured rating with existing gensets?
Q1. Is it in practice to run GE Jenbacher (JGS 620-420-320) gensets with Caterpillar (G3516C –A)?
Q2. What type of problems to be faced due to un matching sharing signals of Caterpillar (0-3Vdc) and Jenbacher (4-20mA) ?
Q3. If responding slower / faster and sharing UN proportionally to their rating on load demand then what will be the solution?
Q4. Can any transducer be used to match the sharing signal resulting smooth sharing?
