Automatic Mains Failure (AMF) Panels: Seamless Power Transition & Unwavering Reliability
Overview
In today's interconnected world, power outages are more than just an inconvenience – they can lead to significant financial losses, data corruption, operational disruptions, and safety hazards. Our Automatic Mains Failure (AMF) Panels are the essential backbone for any facility requiring uninterrupted power. Designed to automatically detect main power supply failures, initiate your standby generator, and seamlessly transfer the electrical load, our AMF Panels ensure continuous power supply, safeguarding your critical operations and valuable assets.
What is an AMF Panel?
An AMF Panel is an intelligent control system that monitors the incoming mains (utility) power supply. In the event of a power failure, it automatically sends a start signal to a connected standby generator. Once the generator is running and stable, the AMF panel then automatically switches the electrical load from the failed mains supply to the generator. When mains power is restored, the panel intelligently switches the load back to the mains and commands the generator to shut down after a cool-down period. This entire process is fully automatic, eliminating the need for manual intervention and minimizing downtime.
Key Features & Capabilities
Our AMF Panels are built with advanced technology and robust components to deliver unparalleled performance and reliability:
- Advanced Microprocessor-Based Controller: The heart of the system, offering precise control, monitoring, and programmable logic for various operational scenarios.
- Automatic Mains Failure Detection: Continuously monitors all phases of the mains supply for voltage drops, phase loss, or complete failure.
- Automatic Generator Start/Stop: Sends precise commands to your generator for starting, monitoring its status, and safe shutdown.
- Motorised or Contactor-Based Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS): High-speed, robust switching mechanism to transfer load between mains and generator with minimal interruption.
- Comprehensive Mains & Generator Parameter Monitoring: Real-time display of voltage, current, frequency, power factor, active power, reactive power, and cumulative energy.
- Adjustable Timers & Delays: Configurable settings for mains failure delay, generator crank/rest periods, warm-up/cool-down times, and mains return delay.
- Multi-Level Protections: Integrated safeguards against over/under voltage, over/under frequency, overload, short circuit, phase reversal, generator low oil pressure, high engine temperature, and more.
- Manual Override & Bypass: For testing, maintenance, or emergency situations, allowing manual control of load transfer.
- User-Friendly HMI/LCD Display: Intuitive interface for easy parameter viewing, alarm acknowledgment, and configuration.
- Event Logging & Data Storage: Records operational data, alarms, and events for diagnostics and maintenance planning.
- Remote Monitoring & Communication (Optional): Modbus RTU/TCP, RS485, Ethernet, GSM/GPRS for integration with BMS, SCADA systems, or remote supervision via mobile/web applications.
- Integrated Battery Charger: Ensures the generator's starter battery remains optimally charged at all times.
- Robust & Weatherproof Enclosures: Available in various IP ratings (IP54, IP65, etc.) for indoor or outdoor installation, built with durable materials like powder-coated CRCA steel.
