DEIF The Generator Protection Unit GPU-3 Hydro
Application
The Generator Protection Unit (GPU-3 Hydro) is a compact microprocessor-based
protection unit containing all necessary functions for protection of a hydro turbine
driven synchronous/asynchronous generator. It contains all necessary
galvanically separated 3-phase measuring circuits.
The GPU-3 Hydro is well-suited for PLC-controlled systems, and the interfacing can
be done via digital and analogue I/Os or via serial communication.
Display unit
The display unit is separate and can be installed directly on the main unit or in the
front of the switchboard door (3 m display cable included). Up to two additional
displays can be installed within 200 m. The display unit shows all measured and
calculated values as well as alarms and data from the event log.
Self-test
The GPU-3 Hydro automatically carries out a cyclical self-test at start-up.
If any errors are found, they will be displayed in clear text in the display and
indicated with a relay output (status output).
