3. THE BLUEPLANET INVERTER OVERVIEW
Full digital control using digital signal processing (DSP)
The KACO XP uses two DSPs to control the inverter and an ARM processor for user and external interface.
These full digital control schemes offer enhanced reliability, accuracy, efficiency, flexibility and convenience.
High reliability
The KACO Inverter features built in reliability with redundant power supplies, highly efficient cooling of critical
components and intelligent cooling fans. The fans are monitored and controlled according to load and
environmental temperature conditions. All components used in the KACO XP are designed for industrial use.
The IGBT stack was designed based on the IEEE WG PEBB TF2 standards. These standards mandate the
use of laminated DC bus-bars that provide for very low stray inductance and gate drive interfacing with
differential signaling. This feature enhances reliability and ease of maintenance. Full digital control
technology of the XP also enhances reliability by reducing component count compared to traditional analog
electronics.
Powerful human interface and networking
The Inverter’ features a powerful and friendly Graphic User Interface (GUI). The “all-in-one” design for the
GUI provides for more convenient operation and monitoring. The GUI is a big, easy to use display with color
TFT LCD (480 x 272 dots) and provides detailed operating information in different languages. RS232,
RS485, and Ethernet interfaces for networking are standard in the Inverter.
System flexibility
The Inverter provides 4 analog inputs, an S0 input, 1 programmable dry contact output A type (Normally
open) and B type (Normally closed), and 1 digital input. The analog inputs are preconfigured for the user and
allow easy connection of temperature sensors and a reference cell. The S0 input is preconfigured for smart
metering.
