Corrosion
Switchgear RetroFit
Switchgear retrofit, modernization, or upgrades, can virtually eliminate emergency power system downtime and disruption of business operations. Modernization will:
-
retain generator engines, fuel systems, radiators and piping, main electrical wiring, gear enclosures, and in most cases, buses and breakers
-
eliminate electrical and mechanical work, modifications required to decommission and remove old gear and install new gear
-
prevent the need to rent and locate temporary generators on site
-
meet rigid project timelines and deadlines
Modernization enhances technologies and units and creates new highly-efficient ones to improve system operation, monitoring and control. The goal is to achieve flexibility, ease of maintenance, better operation control and quick access to precise information. For example, a digital display provides real-time data on amperage, voltage and phases, and can alert staff when conditions are not within preset limits. Step-by-step, user-friendly instructions on the display are a big help to the operators.
In the context of EPSS, modernization refers to the following:
-
Programmable logic controller upgrades - this is a low cost way to improve the reliability and functionality of your controls. These upgrades add redundancies and additional functionalities that enhance operation.
-
Custom controls - modernize breaker power transfer-switch controls and add annunciation to SCADA systems that can provide the control capabilities that the businesses want.
-
Demand for modern control switchgear to monitor the loads.
In switchgear retrofits, the switchgear is upgraded by replacing old circuit breakers with new ones inside existing cubicles. This is possible because metal enclosures, bus bars and other static components within a switchboard, are often still in good condition after years of service. A switchgear retrofit is recognized as a reliable means of extending equipment life without the high costs and hazards that can be associated with total replacement. Alternative solutions for maintaining electrical switchgear include reconditioning, conversion, and partial or total replacement of equipment.
Load Bank Testing
Load bank testing of standby gensets is a preventive maintenance practice for an emergency power supply system (EPSS). The testing is primarily meant for diesel-powered gensets. The main purpose of this testing is to help ensure the genset's reliable operation during utility power failure. If this testing is performed regularly, it can extend the genset's life. CP Resiliency has load banks on hand that will handle wet stacking, diagnostics, and troubleshooting.
If your Emergency Power Supply System (EPSS) contains a diesel-powered generator your equipment may develop a condition known as "wet stacking." Wet stacking occurs when unburned diesel fuel escapes the engine's cylinders during the combustion cycle and accumulates in the exhaust pipes. Fuel can escape the cylinders when the combustion temperature and pressure is not high enough to adequately expand the piston rings and make a complete seal. Unburned diesel fuel in the exhaust system then becomes a fire hazard. Thereafter, once the system is operated under adequate load the exhaust will heat to a temperature high enough to ignite the fuel that has accumulated in the exhaust pipe creating a potentially disastrous fire. To prevent this from happening, the generator must be regularly operated under enough load to increase the combustion temperature inside the cylinders to seal the piston rings and burn off any unburned fuel that may have accumulated in the exhaust.
Scheduled Maintenance
CP Resiliency highly recommends scheduled maintenance. Your standby and emergency power system requires upkeep and maintenance. Poor maintenance schedules or standards can put your facility at risk when you need power the most.
A CP Resiliency scheduled maintenance program can save lives, help you avoid costly expenses, and allow you to perform your most vital functions - without interruption.
CP Resiliency employs licensed electrical and mechanical engineers to ensure that your standby and emergency power system meets the most stringent standards of excellence.
CP Resiliency can provide mechanical and electrical troubleshooting, diagnostics, testing, and maintenance for all makes and models.
Generator Distributor
CP Resiliency will custom design an emergency power system that meets your specific needs, and also serve as project manager through to completion, from installation to start-up, testing, and regular maintenance.
As an independent generator dealer, we will help you choose the best solution - meeting your needs where you are - in terms of budget, size, fuel choice and coverage. From gaseous, to bi-fuel to diesel gensets - we have what you need.
