1 OVERVIEW
RPU560A Redundant Protection Unit is a unit that can autonomously maintain and protect the engine running. The module is connected to HMC9000/HMC6000 via CANBUS port. All parameters and shutdown alarm types can be checked on the master controller. It can be widely used in marine emergency units, main propulsion units, main generator units and pumping units.
2 PERFORMANCE AND CHARACTERISTICS
➢ Speed sensor enables accurate control and protection of the running engine;
➢ Optional working mode; one is synchronized with master controller to protect engine normal running; the other is protect engine automatically when master controller failure occurs.
➢ 4 digital shutdown inputs;
➢ 5 relay outputs: shutdown output, fuel output, common warning output, common shutdown output, auxiliary output;
➢ Emergency shutdown input port: after emergency shutdown is initiated, regardless of whether master controller failure occurred or not, shutdown signal will still be sent;
➢ Override mode, in which only overspeed shutdown and emergency shutdown signals will be able to stop the unit;
➢ Modular design, compact structure, small size and easy use.

4 OPERATION
4.1 MAIN PROTECTED MODE
RPU560A redundant protection unit will detect engine parameters and shutdown inputs automatically to protect the engine in real time whether the main module is active or not. If overspeed shutdown or other shutdown alarm input is occurred, the stop relay is energized while the fuel relay is disengaged, then the common shutdown relay is engaged. When the engine stops successfully, users can reset the alarm by pressing reset button mounted on the HMC9000/HMC6000 panel or by pressing the reset button contained within the RPU560A module.
4.2 STANDBY PROTECTED MODE
- When master control is active (CANBUS communication is normal), if the engine speed has exceeded the fuel output speed, the fuel relay is energized. Only the active emergency shutdown input and overspeed signal will be able to stop the generator.
- When master control is deactivated (CANBUS communication is failed), if overspeed shutdown or other shutdown signal is detected, the stop relay is energized while the fuel relay is disengaged, then the common shutdown relay is engaged. When the engine stops successfully, users can reset the alarm by pressing reset button.
- In override mode, if master control is deactivated, only overspeed shutdown and emergency shutdown signals will be able to stop the unit.
5 PROTECTION
5.1 WARNINGS
When the warnings mentioned below are initiated, the alarm message will be displayed on LCD and the common relay is energized.
Warning types are as follows:
Table 4 Warnings
No. | Warning type | Detection range | Description |
| 1 | Battery 1 Over Volt | Always active | Active when the battery voltage has fallen below the pre-set threshold and last for 20s. Then lamp BAT.1, BAT.2 will blink and the common warn relay outputs at the same time. |
| 2 | Battery 2 Over Volt | ||
| 3 | Battery 1 Under Volt | ||
| 4 | Battery 2 Under Volt | ||
| 5 | Input 1 BW Warn | When the controller detects wire disconnection, the disconnection indicators begin to blink and the common warn relay outputs, and the corresponding information will be displayed on the LCD screen. | |

5.2 SHUTDOWN ALARM
If shutdown alarm signal is detected, shutdown relay and common shutdown relay activate while fuel relay deactivates.
Table 5 Shutdown Alarms
No. | Alarm Type | Detection range | Description |
| 1 | Emergency Shutdown | Always active | After shutdown alarm signal is initiated, shutdown relay and common shutdown relay are activated while fuel relay deactivates. When failure shutdown is active, the corresponding lamp will be always initiated. |
| 2 | Input 1 Shutdown | Always active | When failure shutdown input is active and engine speed has exceeded or been equal with pre-set value, shutdown relay and common shutdown relay are activated while fuel relay deactivates. When failure shutdown is active, the corresponding lamp will be always initiated, and the controller possesses with break wire detection function (it can be defined by users). |
