      AMF Control Panel: Uninterrupted Power, Uncompromised Performance

      Overview

      The AMF (Automatic Mains Failure) Control Panel is the intelligent heart of any critical power system, designed to ensure continuous and reliable power supply by seamlessly managing the transition between the main grid and a backup generator. Engineered for ultimate reliability and advanced functionality, our AMF panel acts as the vigilant guardian of your operations, protecting against power outages, minimizing downtime, and safeguarding valuable assets.

      Whether for commercial, industrial, or residential applications, this robust control solution offers automated monitoring, swift decision-making, and precise control over your power infrastructure.

      Key Features & Benefits

      • Automatic Mains Failure Detection:
        • Continuously monitors incoming mains voltage and frequency across all phases.
        • Intelligently detects power outages, phase loss, under/over voltage, and under/over frequency conditions.
        • Initiates the generator start sequence automatically upon detecting a configurable mains failure.
      • Intelligent Generator Control:
        • Automated Start/Stop: Manages the generator start-up (pre-heat, crank, start attempts) and shutdown (cool-down, stop solenoid) sequences.
        • Engine Monitoring: Real-time monitoring of critical engine parameters including oil pressure, water temperature, fuel level, battery voltage, RPM, and run hours.
        • Generator Monitoring: Tracks generator output parameters such as voltage (L-L, L-N), current per phase, frequency, active power (kW), reactive power (kVAr), apparent power (kVA), power factor, and energy (kWh).
      • Seamless Load Transfer:
        • ATS/ACB Control: Directly controls external Automatic Transfer Switches (ATS) or Air Circuit Breakers (ACBs) for smooth, bump-less transfer of load between mains and generator supply.
        • Configurable Timers: Adjustable timers for mains failure detection delay, generator start delay, warm-up, transfer to generator, transfer back to mains, and cool-down periods, ensuring optimal operational efficiency and generator longevity.
      • Advanced Protection & Alarms:
        • Comprehensive Safety: Protects both the generator and the connected load from harmful conditions with safeguards like over/under voltage, over/under frequency, overcurrent, short circuit, reverse power, earth fault, low oil pressure, high engine temperature, overspeed, and emergency stop.
        • Multi-level Alarming: Provides audible and visual alarms, fault indications, and detailed event logging for quick diagnosis and resolution. Configurable warning and shutdown thresholds.
      • User-Friendly Interface (HMI):
        • Graphical LCD Display: High-resolution graphic LCD with backlight for clear viewing of all operational parameters, alarms, and settings.
        • Intuitive Navigation: Tactile push-buttons allow for easy navigation through menus, status screens, and configuration settings.
        • Multi-language Support: Available in multiple languages for global usability.
      • Remote Monitoring & Control (Optional):
        • Communication Protocols: Supports industry-standard protocols such as Modbus RTU (RS485), Modbus TCP/IP (Ethernet), allowing seamless integration with SCADA systems, BMS (Building Management Systems), or other remote monitoring platforms.
        • SMS/Email Alerts: Configurable to send automatic SMS or email notifications for critical alarms or status changes.
      • Event Logging & Data Storage:
        • Stores a detailed history of events, alarms, and operational data with time and date stamps, facilitating diagnostics, preventative maintenance, and performance analysis.
      • Robust & Reliable Construction:
        • Industrial-Grade Components: Built with high-quality, industrial-grade components for exceptional durability and long-term performance in demanding environments.
        • Enclosure Options: Available in mild steel or stainless steel enclosures with various IP ratings (e.g., IP54, IP65) for protection against dust, water, and corrosion.
        • Mounting: Designed for wall-mounting, floor-standing, or integration into existing switchgear.
      • Manual & Automatic Modes:
        • Offers flexible operation with both automatic and manual modes, allowing operators to take full control when required for testing or maintenance.
