Green Power International introduces an uninterrupted and limitless power solution with the Diesel Rotary UPS (DRUPS), powered by NO-BREAK KS® from esteemed DRUPS manufacturers, EURO-DIESEL of Belgium. Established in 1989, EURO-DIESEL has led the industry with its expertise in power products and Standby Generating sets, delivering an unparalleled Diesel Rotary Uninterruptible Power Supply system (DRUPS) known as NO-BREAK KS®.

The advanced DRUPS system provides seamless and limitless power and revolutionizes Grid Supply Power Conditioning. It corrects voltage, enhances the Power Factor, filters out harmonics, and eliminates micro-cuts. The NO-BREAK KS® is ingeniously simple, featuring a Diesel Engine linked to a Stato-Alternator through an Electromagnetic Clutch. This Stato-Alternator amalgamates a Kinetic Energy Accumulator and a Synchronous machine. The NO-BREAK KS® also integrates control and choke/power panels.

Elevate your power resilience with DRUPS technology, with leading DRUPS manufacturers to bring you the NO-BREAK KS® solution.

How does it work?

  • At the core of the NO-BREAK KS® lies its innovative kinetic energy accumulator, a brilliant yet straightforward mechanism for storing and releasing kinetic energy.
  • This accumulator comprises two rotating components: the outer rotor rotates independently around the inner rotor (refer to the diagram below). The inner rotor, powered by the main shaft, turns at 1500 rpm and incorporates two sets of windings: a three-phase AC winding and a DC winding.
  • This ingenious DRUPS technology, backed by Green Power International’s partnership with leading DRUPS manufacturers, ensures continuous power supply, offering reliability and efficiency in energy storage and utilization.

Energy storage

Conditioning Mode: The AC winding is energized, generating a rotating magnetic field that propels the outer rotor to a maximum speed of 3000 rpm. Despite this, the relative speed between the inner and outer bearing rings remains at 1500 rpm, aligned with the 1500 rpm rotation of the shaft. The outer rotor strategically accumulates kinetic energy as its kinetic energy proportionally escalates with its distance from the centre of rotation.

Energy retrieval

Independent Mode: Activating the DC winding establishes an electrical connection between the inner and outer rotors through induction. The kinetic energy stored in the outer rotor is then transmitted to the inner rotor, setting it in motion. This energy exchange is meticulously governed by precisely controlling the current input into the DC winding. Notably, the kinetic energy accumulator operates as a brushless system.

Conditioning Mode:

During the conditioning mode, when the mains supply operates within the defined tolerance range, the synchronous machine assumes the role of a motor. This facilitates the driving of the main shaft and, consequently, the accumulation of kinetic energy within the system. As the inner rotor achieves a rotation of 1500 rpm (50Hz), the outer rotor responds by reaching a maximum speed of 3000 rpm. The outcome of this process is the efficient storage of kinetic energy.

Independent Mode:

In the independent mode, activated in scenarios such as mains failure or voltage disturbances, the kinetic energy stored within the system undergoes a seamless transfer to the state-alternator, which takes on the role of a generator. This transition transpires without causing any disruption to the user experience. Subsequently, the diesel engine initiates its operation, engaging with the state alternator via an electromagnetic clutch. Energy transmission follows suit, progressing from the diesel engine to the synchronous machine and finally to the connected loads.

Sequence:

  • QD1 Opens
  • The kinetic energy harnessed from the outer rotor plays a pivotal role in maintaining the frequency at 50 Hz, held within a tight tolerance of +/- 1%.
  • The engine begins its operation.
  • The electromagnetic clutch closes.
  • Upon the engine attaining a rotational speed of 1500 rpm, power transfer to the loads commences and persists until the mains supply is restored.

Transfer from Conditioning Mode to Independent Mode:

Visualized in the accompanying graph, the transition from conditioning to independent mode is showcased and then reversed. Throughout this process, the frequency is meticulously maintained within narrow tolerances. The speed of the accumulator gradually decreases, subsequently triggering the initiation of the diesel engine to provide power to the connected load. Should an unforeseen failure occur during the diesel engine start-up, the electromechanical clutch promptly closes after the QD1 opening, thus harnessing the kinetic energy of the accumulator to commence the diesel engine. This redundancy establishes the NO-BREAK KS® as equipped with a dual-start capability, offering an additional guarantee for engine activation

Mains Return: Back to Conditioning Mode:

Upon the restoration of the mains supply, the NO-BREAK KS® seamlessly synchronizes with it. The outer rotor swiftly re-accelerates to its designated speed. Upon achieving the rated kinetic energy storage, QD1 closes. The electromagnetic clutch disengages, thereby facilitating the closure of the clutch. Subsequently, the diesel engine operates at an idle speed, serving the purpose of cooling before eventually coming to a halt. This comprehensive system ensures that critical loads are safeguarded against an unlimited number of repeated mains failures.
