What is IP3 DSP ?
|
IP3 Digital Starter
Panel (DSP) performs the same basic functionalities of any normal
starter, providing Auto-Off-Manual (AOM) mode control. Difference lies with
the use of microprocessor controller (IP3 Panel Controller) for
operation of the starter.
|
What are the
advantageous ?
|
Being
microprocessor-based, all the I/O status of the starter are
electronically monitored and controlled. Apart from the normal
Auto-Off-Manual (AOM) mode control functionalities, additional features
afforded by the microprocessor include -- real-time clock, 7-day timer schedule with
calendar, fieldbus network for remote monitoring and control from
Master PLC/ PC.
|
What happen in case of
failure ?
|
As standard, all IP3
DSP are wired with Manual bypass that allows the user to
operate the equipment in case of controller failure. |
What kind of starters ? |
IP3 DSP is suitable for all kinds of motor
starters - DOL/ SD/ AT/ Soft Starter/ VSD/ Relay control.
|
What about metering ?
|
The 3-phase model of
IP3 DSP (E series) is equipped with energy metering capability that can
measure the electrical supply to the starter, such as Voltage, Ampere,
kW, kVars, kVA, Power Factor, kWHR, Frequency.
|
| BAS Implementation ? |
Using IP3 DSP for ACMV
equipment will reduce cost of ownership in BAS implementation by as
much as 50%. To implement the BAS, simply connect the fieldbus
network (of ACMV equipment) to the Master PLC/ Central PC.
No
additional BAS Hardware is required.

Energy
Management ?
|
The IP3 DSP system is
perhaps the only BAS that has integrated energy management as standard
feature. With energy management, building owners can visualize and implement strategies for saving energy. Some features and capabilities of IP3
BAS include the following.
- Schedules of operation for the ACMV equipment
so that energy savings can be realized when the building spaces are
unoccupied.
- Optimal start so that the equipment can be
turned on/ off at an appropriate time to ensure space set points are
achieved before occupation.
- Monitor energy usage of ACMV equipment and in
conjunction with appropriate energy savings software to offer
economizing control based on temperature calculations and/or CO2 set
point control.
- During peak demand, cycle off non-essential
equipment like water fountains.
- Send alarms via email and SMS to alert building
managers of developing problems and system failures.
- Energy metering, allows Management companies to
setup billing system of tenants for energy usage.
The IP3 Panel Controller (Series E) is equipped with energy metering capabilities. And,
for the first time provide building owner the capability to monitor
energy consumption of individual ACMV equipment in the BAS system.

| What kind of BAS
Network ? |
IP3 DSP network is
using CAN Fieldbus architecture. Capable of supporting up to 32 units
of DSP in single network using 2P STP of 18/ 20 AWG cable size.
