AMF Panel: Uninterrupted Power for Critical Operations

Introduction

In today's interconnected world, power outages are more than an inconvenience; they can lead to significant financial losses, data corruption, and operational disruption. The AMF (Automatic Mains Failure) Panel is your essential safeguard, designed to seamlessly switch your power source from the utility grid to a standby generator and back again, automatically.

Our AMF Panels provide a robust, reliable, and intelligent solution for ensuring continuous power to critical loads in the event of a mains power failure. Engineered for precision and built for durability, our panels eliminate the need for manual intervention, offering peace of mind and protecting your valuable assets.

Key Features

Our AMF Panels are equipped with advanced functionalities to provide seamless power management:

• Automatic Mains Monitoring: Continuously monitors the incoming utility power for voltage, frequency, and phase integrity.
• Automatic Generator Start/Stop: Upon detecting a mains failure, the panel automatically sends a start signal to the standby generator. Once mains power is restored and stable, it initiates a cooldown period before safely shutting down the generator.
• Automatic Load Transfer: Utilizes high-quality contactors or motorized circuit breakers to automatically transfer the load from mains to generator power (and vice versa) with minimal interruption.
• Engine Protection & Monitoring: Integrates comprehensive generator engine protection features, including monitoring for:
  • Low Oil Pressure
  • High Engine Temperature
  • Over/Under Speed
  • Low Fuel Level
  • Battery Voltage Monitoring
• Battery Charger Integration: Incorporates an intelligent battery charger to maintain the generator's starter battery in optimal condition, ensuring instant starts.
• User-Friendly HMI (Human-Machine Interface): Features an intuitive LCD display and LED indicators for real-time status updates, fault diagnostics, and parameter adjustments.
• Configurable Timers: Adjustable start/stop delays, cooldown timers, and transfer times to suit specific operational requirements.
• Event Logging: Stores critical operational data, fault history, and alarm events for easier troubleshooting and maintenance planning.
• Robust & Weatherproof Enclosure: Housed in a durable, often IP-rated, metal enclosure suitable for various indoor and outdoor environments.
• Safety Interlocks: Ensures proper sequencing and prevents simultaneous connection of mains and generator power, enhancing safety.
• Optional Remote Monitoring & Control: Available with communication modules (Modbus, Ethernet, GSM/GPRS) for remote access, monitoring, and control via SCADA or dedicated software.

Benefits

Investing in our AMF Panels provides a multitude of advantages:

• Eliminate Downtime: Guarantees uninterrupted power supply, preventing costly business interruptions and data loss.
• Protect Critical Equipment: Provides stable and regulated power, safeguarding sensitive electronics and machinery from voltage fluctuations and surges.
• Reduce Operational Costs: Automates power switching, eliminating the need for manual oversight and reducing labor costs.
• Enhanced Safety: Prevents hazardous manual switching, ensures proper sequencing, and incorporates multiple safety features for operator and equipment protection.
• Peace of Mind: Provides confidence that your operations will remain functional even during unexpected power outages.
• Extended Generator Lifespan: Intelligent control and protection mechanisms ensure the generator operates efficiently and is only run when necessary, reducing wear and tear.
• Compliance & Reliability: Built to international standards, ensuring high reliability and adherence to safety regulations.
