FEATURES & FUNCTIONALITY

Wiring efforts are reduced to a minimum, since only one CAN bus connection is required between all LS-5 and easYgen controllers to transmit AC measurement signals, I/O states, flags, etc.

The LS-5x1 devices manage synchronization, loading and un-loading on each bus segment and send the required voltage, frequency and phase angle references via CAN bus to the easYgen-3400XT/3500XT genset controllers. When serving an incoming mains breaker it automatically detects mains failure, performs mains decoupling and sends the start signal to the easYgen. The LS-5x1 is software selectable to be applied as an independent synch check relay, mains circuit breaker control or bus tie-breaker control thereby providing exceptional versatility and value for OEM switchgear builders, generator packagers, and system integrators.

The LS-5x1 Series is available in two different mounting styles. An LS-521 with a plastic housing and graphic LCD display is designed to be mounted on the cabinet’s front door.
