KMP-C top-up monitoring in closed circuits
|
Principle
System KMP-C top-up monitoring in closed circuits employs pressure meansurements from an industrial pressure
transmitter and volume measurements by a high-resolution pulsing Diehl ultrasonic water meter.
KMP-C connects to the DanTaet Alarm- and Energy Registration System AERS, which stores measurement data
and conveys alarms to the duty staff.
Operating pressure is monitored in relation to six pressure limits, and top-ups are monitored with respect
to vlume and frequency. KMP-C-V0 is a valveless variant which assists and monitors manual top-ups, while
KMP-C-V1 features a cut-off valve with a spring-return, normally closed actuator, and may perform
semiautomatic and fully automatic top-ups.

Logging
Alarm and Event log
KMP-C maintains a log of the 48 most recent events. Logged events are Power Down/Up, Alarms
and Faults, Acknowledgements and Autoreset, Key Activation and Control Signal Change.
|
Top-up log
KMP-C maintains a log of the 48 most recent top-ups. Mode, pressure and time at initiation and
termination of top-up are logged, as is the top-up volume.
These logs support the analysis and documentation of events and of the state of the installation.

AERS
Upon delivery, KMP-C is attached to DanTaet's Alarm and Energy Registration System
KMP-C er ved levering tilsluttet DanTaets Alarm- og Energiregistreringssystem
AERS, which conveys alarms to the duty watch and illustrates the event.
AERS transmits alarms in the form of text messages and/or e-mail, and alarms may be remotely
acknowledged from the recipient's smartphone, tablet, laptop or PC.
Example: situation view from AERS.
