District Heating Leak Protection System KMP-F
Kamstrup

Principle

District Heating Leak Protection system KMP-F employs values of volume flow from two ultrasonic meters, which are fetched regularly via a digital interface from a Kamstrup MULTICAL®601, 602, 603, 801 or 803 heat meter to which the flow meters are attached.

Two monitoring functions are employed with the fetched volume flow data for protecting the installation from leakage, as the KMP-F closes the cut-off valves when a leak is detected by any monitor.

Component errors reported in the heat meter's INFO code are propagated by the KMP-F as System Error Alarms.

Logging

Alarm and Event log
KMP-F maintains a log of the most recent 250 events, such as Power Down, Power Up, Alarm and Error messages, Alarm Acknowledge and Autoreset, External Control Input change, State change and Sequence execution.

 

Jumper Log
KMP-F maintains a log of the 15 most recent changes to the jumper settings.

These logs serve to document events surrounding actual incidents in the installation.

AERS

On delivery, KMP-F is attached to the DanTaet Alarm and Energy Registration System AERS which conveys leakage alarms to the duty watch of the property 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.

Variants

Variant -M2 is a complete new delivery.
Variants -M1 and -M0 are used with an existing Kamstrup heat meter.
Note the heat meter must be grid powered for use with KMP-F, and that it must have a slot available for insertion of a data module.
Systems KMP-FExx employ MULTICAL®803, when the application requires more than two module slots.
