IGS-NT-2.4-Installation Guide r3.PDF
Marine Application Notes
The IGS-NT system and components can be used as Control, Monitoring and Protection for single and
multiple generator applications according to Marine Type Approval Regulation

Controller is tested and approved:

- For location in Machinery spaces and Control room – Location class B.
- According the EMC rules for general power distribution zones.

Safety requirements
Additional, independent safety and protection devices are necessary to meet safety requirements of Rules
and Regulations of Marine Classification Societies. The sensors and circuits utilized for the second stage
alarm and automatic shutdown are to be independent of those required for the first stage alarm (LR
Rulefinder 2008 - V9.10).

The project designer is responsible to follow Marine regulations in project design wiring and InteliGen-NT or
InteliSys-NT controller configuration and setpoint setting.

Usually is necessary to use additional, independent equipment for Emergency stop, Overspeed, Low oil
pressure and Overcurrent protection.

Oil mist and engine bearing temperature monitoring are to be provided when arrangements are fitted to
override the automatic shutdown for excessive reduction of the lubrication oil pressure (or for engines above
2250 kW). The Overriding of this protection is to be independent.

Required alarms and safeguards for auxiliary engines.

Lubrication oil inlet temperature high
Lubrication oil inlet pressure low
Coolant outlet temperature high
Coolant pressure or flow low
Exhaust gas temperature high

The maximal wire length for Binary (Analog) inputs and outputs should be less than 10 meters, otherwise the
separation relay or additional protection has to be used.

InteliGenNT, InteliSysNT, InteliMainsNT – Installation Guide r3, ©ComAp – August 2010 10

IGS-NT-2.4-Installation Guide r3.PDF
In the case of longer distance wires the additional protection has to be used for Signal inputs and
Outputs close to controller terminals. Protection is available on request in ComAp.

Power supply
To have full Surge protection ±2kV for controller power supply terminals the external component
(e.g. two DK4/35 U S14 K60 from Weidmueller for DIN rail) has to be connected.

IG-NT or IS-NT

Controller box shielding

The I-LBA (low battery adaptor) module is to be used when power supply voltage dip up to 200ms is
required. The up to 100ms supply voltage dip is acceptable by IG-NT or IS-NT controller itself.

Default configuration
Use the default IG-MINT-Marine-2.3.ant or IS-MINT-Marine-2.3.ant (or higher) to avoid incorrect system
setting and configuration.

Default configuration can be modified using the GenConfig-2.3 (or higher) PC tool. Please take care of
following items that are included in default configuration file:

- The function "Virtual Peripheries" shall not be used for marine application.

InteliGenNT, InteliSysNT, InteliMainsNT – Installation Guide r3, ©ComAp – August 2010 11

IGS-NT-2.4-Installation Guide r3.PDF
- An automatic start of the generator after acknowledgement of alarm shall be prevented (Basic settings:
FltResGoToMAN = ENABLED).
- Common alarm contacts interfacing the machinery alarm system shall be re-triggered in case of occurring
new alarm" (BO5 = Alarm flashing).

Override function
The “Sd override” (Shut-down override) function is included in default configuration on Binary input BI7.
Active Override is indicated by a " ! " mark on the display and on Binary output BO4 Common SdOvr.

The default Override function blocks all protections except the Overspeed, Emergency stop and all Analog or
Binary protections configured as SD Override.

It is strongly recommended to modify names of such values to begin or finish with letters SDO – e.g.
WaterTemp SDO.

Use internal PLC function when the independent override protection e.g. for Bearing temperature is required.

IGS-PTM
IGS-PTM is I/O extension module with 8 binary I/O, four analog inputs configurable for range:
• 0 – 250 Ω (suitable for Pt100, Ni100, VDO pressure, VDO level),
• 0 – 100 mV (suitable for thermocouples),
• 0 – 20 mA.
and one analog output configurable for range
• 0 to 20 mA.

Detail descriptions see in IGS-PTM-7.0.pdf manual.

Hint:
The 0-100 mV inputs are only suitable for thermocouples galvanically separated from the frame – “isolated”
type. For non-isolated type thermocouples use IS-AIN8 module.
The 0-250Ω input is not possible to use for Pt1000, Ni1000 and VDO Temp sensors due to measurement
range < 250Ω.

For operation with IGS-NT controller it is necessary to close IGS jumper.

Hint:
The I-LBA unit is intended to supply one controller unit only at the same time.
It is not recommended to use +PWR BOUT outputs on thecontroller as a source for relays, as their
consumption would exhaust I-LBA capacitors very fast.
It is also not recommended to supply any kind of above controllers with LT (Low Temperature) display
because of the high current consumption of the LT display.

Wiring

General
Tightening torque, allowable wire size and type, for the Field-Wiring Terminals:
For Mains(Bus) Voltage and Generator Voltage terminals
Specified tightening torque is 0,56Nm (5,0 In-lb)
Use only diameter 2,0-0,5mm (12-24AWG) conductor, rated for 90°C minimum.

For other controller field wiring terminals

Specified tightening torque 0,79Nm (7,0 In-lb)
Use only diameter 2,0-0,5mm (12-26AWG) conductor, rated for 75°C minimum.
Use copper conductors only.

To ensure proper function:

Use grounding terminals.
Cables for binary inputs and analogue inputs must not be placed along power cables.
Analog and binary inputs should use shielded cables, especially when length exceeds 3m.

Power supply
To ensure proper function:
Use power supply cable min. 2,5mm2
Use fuse 1 amps for IG-EE, IG-EEC, IG-NT, IG-NTC
2 amps for IS-NT
Maximal continuous DC power supply voltage is 36VDC. See chapter Technical data.

Hint:
Switchboard lightning strikes protection according standard regulation is expected !!!
The maximum allowable current through the controller negative terminal is 3 to 8A (depends on controller
type and binary output load).

InteliGenNT, InteliSysNT, InteliMainsNT – Installation Guide r3, ©ComAp – August 2010 49

IGS-NT-2.4-Installation Guide r3.PDF
Power supply fusing
A (2) respectively (1) amp fuse should be connected in-line with the power to the controller and modules,
these items should never bee connected directly to the starting battery.
Take care for proper controller, extension units and relays power supply fusing. Fuse value and type
depends on number of connected devices and wire length.
Recommended fuse (not fast) types:

Controller or unit Fuse

Controller T1A orT2A
IS-AIN8 T2A
IS-BIN16/8 T1A

For more extension units use separate fusing according to the table above.
Controller power supply should never be connected to starter terminals.

For the connections with 12VDC power supply an I-LBA module can be connected to controller power
terminals in order to allow the controller to continue operation during cranking if the battery voltage dip
occurs. In this case, it is not recommended to use +PWR BOUT outputs on the controller as a source for
relays, as their consumption would exhaust I-LBA capacitors very fast.

Grounding
To ensure proper function:
The shortest possible piece of wire should be used for controller grounding.
Use cable min. 2,5mm2
Brass M4x10 screw with star washer securing ring type grounding terminal shall be used.

Magnetic pick-up
To ensure proper function:
Use a shielded cable

InteliGenNT, InteliSysNT, InteliMainsNT – Installation Guide r3, ©ComAp – August 2010 50

IGS-NT-2.4-Installation Guide r3.PDF
Take care to interference signal when one common speed pick-up is used for both Speed governor and
Controller. When some problems occur:
- check grounding connection from pick-up to controllers, disconnect ground connection to one of
them.
- galvanically separate Controller RPM input using ComAp separation transformer RPM-ISO (1:1).
- use separate pick-up for Speed governor and Controller.

Controller indicates "Sd Underspeed" + "Pickup fault" after engine start when the pickup signal is good for
start and low speed but too strong for higher speed (loss of signal due to RPM input saturation).
Increase gap between pickup and engine flywheel or change pickup type.

Hint:
If RPM is measured from the generator voltage (Gear teeth = 0), controller can detect RPM on no running
gen-set when:
• Controller generator voltage terminals are opened (e.g. due to opening of fuse switch)
• Non zero RPM causes controller “Not ready” state and engine start is blocked.
