Bernini BE20A
BE20A - Engine Protection / Control Complete With Remote Start/Stop
BE20A is a compact control and protection system for diesel engines. It can easily be mounted on different kind of engine frames or be put in a cabinet. BE20a monitorsoil pressure, fuel level, battery voltage, dynamo plus (belt break) and generates alarms in abnormal engineconditions. Belt-break or charge failure can be detected by monitoring the alternator voltage. Alternator excitation is also provided via this connection. Any alarm input is connected to protection switches, has LED indication and is memory resident until the keyswitch is turned in OFF position. Except LOW FUEL LEVEL any alarm stops the engine. An external emergency stop input is provided for remote stop. An input is provided for remote stat/stop. The unit has a four attempt repeat start facility During engine cranking and for a short time afterwards, all relevant alarm inputs are overwritten in order to let the engine achieve a normal running condition. Once the timer has expired, normal fault protection is pro-vided by the module.

Bernini BE11
BE 11 - Gen-set Automation/Protection
1 Phase AMF Module, 12 or 24V
BE 11 is a basic 1-phase automatic mains failure module including protection for (STAND-BY) GENSETS. It uses an advanced single chip microcomputer for an easy and trouble free GENSET control in case of mains power failures. If mains fails (over/under frequency, over/under voltage, loss of mains), the BE11 initiates (AUTO and TEST mode only) an automatic Gen-Set start cycle including load transfer to the generator by switching the mains/generator contactors. After mains is restored, the load will be automatically transferred back to mains and the Gen-Set will stop after a cooling down time. In MAN mode, the load transfer from mains to generator and vice versa must be provided by external wiring. During all cycles, the engine and generator are fully protected against malfunction. All alarms occurring at abnormal Gen-Set conditions are computed and displayed either by LED or the 3 digit display. They stop, if necessary, the Gen-Set by protection switches. Values of voltage, current and frequency to initiate Gen-Set start and timer settings for preheat, cooling down time etc. are free programmable. The basic BE11 can be upgraded by adding the 3-phase module BE11-3 (for unbalanced loads) with prefabricated AMP MATE-N-LOCK connectors. The BE11 has 20 powerful automatic programmable parameters to fit the program flow to customers needs. The BE 11 is designed to be mounted directly on the engine frame or in cabinets.

Option BE11-3
3-phase option for BE 11 - 1 2V/24V (measures T-N and L3-N voltages). This additional unit provides 3-phase voltage protection for the BE11-series. The voltages of the phases L1-L2 (mains) and RS (generator) are sampled to detect unbalanced loads on the mains in order to start the GEN-SET in any mains failure situation. Calibration range 320-360Vac. Power supply range from 7Vdc to 33Vdc.

BE32 - Gen-Set Automation/Protection
3 Phase AMF Module, 12 - 24V
BE 32 is a sophisticated, 3-phase automatic mains failure module including protection for (STAND-BY) GEN-SETS running in isolated mode. BE32 uses an advanced single chip microcomputer for an easy and trouble free GENSET control in case of mains power failures. If mains fails (over/under frequency, over/under voltage, loss of mains), the BE32 initiates (AUTO mode) an automatic Gen-Set start cycle including load transfer to the generator by switching the mains/generator contactors. After mains is restored, the load will be automatically transferred back to mains and the Gen-Set will stop after a cooling down time. In MAN mode, the load transfer from mains to generator and vice versa must be provided by external wiring. During all cycles, the engine and generator are fully protected against malfunction. All alarms occurring at abnormal Gen-Set conditions are computed and displayed either by LED or the 3 digit display. They stop, if necessary, the Gen-Set by protection switches. The BE32 has 22 powerful automatic programmable parameters to fit the program flow to customers needs. Values of voltage, current and frequency to initiate Gen-Set start and timer settings for preheat, cooling down time, etc. are programmable. BE32 is designed to be mounted in cabinets and protected environments.
