GENERATOR
flywheel SWITCHBOARD
The Sensor/Actuator numbers are used in the text below to identify the Sender/Actuator.
1. Generator active power measurement

Active power is one of the main entries into the regulation. Actual power of the generator is evaluated from
voltage and current measured by common three-phase transducer.
2. Gas Pressure after Pressure Regulator
This binary (contact) sensor is used for Shut down protection of engine in case of failure of Gas Pressure
Regulator. Connect this sensor to controller binary input RegGasPress (see setpoint Diesel
protect:RegGasPr del).
3. Boost Air Temperature

This PT100 sensor is used for two-stage protection of the engine. If too high temperature is measured, first
warning and then gas shutdown is generated – see corresponding setpoints in Engine protect group.
4. Exhaust Gas Temperature (left and right)
Those sensors are used for two-level protection of the engine. If too high temperature is measured, first
warning and then gas shutdown is generated.
Increasing Exhaust temperature causes Gas throttle valve limitation (FLSR function) – see setpoints Diesel
protect:Exhaust TmpLim, ExhaustTmpGain, ….
5. Gas Pressure before Gas Pressure Regulator
This digital sensor is used for protection of engine in the case of gas drop during bi-fuel operation. If gas
drop is detected, shutdown of gas occurs. Connect this sensor to controller binary input LowGasPress.
6. Knocking sensors (each cylinder)
These sensors, together with the DENOX20 anti-knocking controller, are used for the protection of engine in
case of knocking. Denox output 4 – 20mA must be connected to controller analog input.
7. Timing sensor (active pickup) on Camshaft
DENOX20 anti-knocking controller uses this sensor.
8. Double gas safety valve
On – Off valve is opened for bi-fuel engine operation, when all bi-fuel operation conditions are met. ID-BF
controller controls valves by Binary output GAS OK.
9. Throttle body actuator
This actuator is controlled by pulse width modulation signal (PWM) in the range 0% (fully closed) to 100%
(fully opened) during Bi- fuel operation. The position of the Throttle valve defines the amount of gas delivered
to the engine.
10. Diesel flow sensor
This sensor measures the electrical current energising diesel actuator. Another solution is the measuring of
the flow of the diesel fuel by an transducer with electric impulses output. By electronic engine the value is
provided by ECM unit through communication channel. The purpose of the sensor is to keep the Diesel
portion above the level that is necessary to ignite the gas-air mixture in the cylinder. There is two-stage
protection: the first stage (Diesel protect:DieselLimMin, DieselLImGain) is smooth protection limiting the gas
by gently closing the Throttle valve, the second stage (Diesel protect:DieselLimCls) is immediate gas
shutdown.
The Bi-Fuel Kit delivers gas to the each cylinder through the standard engine air-intake system and air-gas
mixture is ignited by a diesel. System automatically operates and adjusts the flow of natural gas.

The main part of the Bi-fuel conversion kit
1. iD-BF Controller
iD-BF controller is the main controller of the Bi-fuel conversion kit. How to handle control pushbuttons of iD-
BF controller is described in “Standard operating procedures” chapter.
2. STOP GAS (Emergency diesel)

Emergent transition to diesel operation mode. The pushbutton starts the immediate transition to diesel
operation mode while closing gas solenoid valves. Pushbutton with arrestment device spring.
Use this pushbutton only in emergent situation because the immediate transition to diesel operation mode
produces generated power stress.
3. POWER 24VDC Switch

The power supply switch ON/OFF of the of control panel.
HSC - iD-BF - Operator Guide, ©ComAp – September 2009 - 10 -

The switching off the power supply of HSC panel during Bi-Fuel operation is very non cultured “emergent
diesel” function. To close the gas immediately use pushbutton STOP GAS or EMERGENCY DIESEL
mentioned above.
4. KNOCKING Lamp
Knocking alarm lamp. The light is ON, while knocking detector DENOX detects significant value of
detonations.
5. ALARM Lamp
General Alarm lamp. Any warning and protection initiate this signalization. It is lightening until FAULT
RESET pushbutton is pressed.
6. DIESEK OK
The light is ON if genset is running & ready for Bi-Fuel operation. That means all conditions for transition and
running in Bi-Fuel operation mode are fulfilled satisfied?.
7. GAS
The light is ON if genset is operating in Bi-Fuel mode.

1. Manual Ball valve

Manual security ball valve gas in inlet to gas train. Security valve has to be closed while the bi-fuel operation
is not possible (not allowed) for longer time.
2. Gas filter
Standard dust filter. The filter must be periodically checked and cleaned.
3. Electromagnetic gas valves

The cascade of two pieces is used for security reasons
4. Gas pressure regulator

The gas pressure regulator controls the difference between gas pressure mixer inlet and air suction
pressure. The difference must be constant and independent on the actual power to achieve the proper
function of Gas actuator 5 – see bellow. Control value of air pressure is fed by hose 7 – see bellow.
5. Gas actuator
Gas throttle valve and valve position feedback sensor. The gas portion is controlled by iD-BF through this
actuator
6. Gas distributor
The device distributes the gas to two turbocharger inlets to reach balanced work of left/right cylinder bank of
engine.
7. Boost air pressure feedback

The hose leads the feedback air pressure from suction manifold to gas pressure regulator.
8. Inlet gas pressure sensor

Contact sensor. If the pressure of the fuel gas is to low then the bi-fuel operation is not allowed or it is
abandoned

9. Gas pressure sensor measuring the pressure downstream gas pressure
regulator
Contact security sensor. The sensor activation is token as Gas actuator failure. The bi-fuel operation is
abandoned immediately.
Conversion kit components

Gas pressure sensors
There is one pressure switch installed on the gas train. One on the gas filter block, which has a function to
inform us in the case of gas supply breakdown. The switching pressure value of the switch is minimal
allowed value before gas train. Pressure level tuning is executed by adjustable bolt which is situated in the
center of switch.
Boost air temperature sensor (Boost Air Tmp)
Its function is to measure temperature of boost air after intercooler. The thermoresistive element Pt100
should be mounted after the turbo-charger downstream aftercooler ( if engine has it ) before intake cylinders.
Boost air temperature radically ipacted proper Bi-fuel system function

Exhaust Gas Temperature sensor (Exh Tmp)
Their function is to measure temperature of exhaust gases, which goes from each bank of cylinders, behind
the turbines of turbochargers.
Denox sensor
Their function is to sense mechanical vibrations in the place which is competently close to the combustion
chamber. By means of this signal following analyze is recognized whether detonating combustion occurs.
Camshaft Position Sensor

Its function is to send the information to control system that combustion process of some cylinder is in some
phase just now. In the concrete, our effort is that this chosen mark will mean the compression top dead
center of the first cylinder.
(TDC of Cylinder No1)
Diesel Fuel Flowmeter
Their function is measure quantity of fuel consumption. The device is used if it is not posible to measure
diesel actuator position.
Electromagnetic Gas Throttle-valve
Gas Pressure Regulator Outlet Pressure to Engine

Gas regulator outlet pressure is the most important tuned parameter on the mechanical part of conversion
kit. Gas mass flow depends directly on this pressure, it means final dual ratio also. Regulator spring
compression indicates difference between regulator outlet pressure and reference pressure (underpressure
after engine air filters). This is a way to set total pressure gradient to constant. Gas regulator outlet pressure
has to be in according with proper throttle regulating range.

Gas Mixer
The function of gas mixer is to create a mixture, which is consists of natural gas and inletting air. By this
arrangement it’s not necessary to make a homogenous mixture directly in the mixer, because these
components will be intensively mix up during following passage thorough compressors of turbochargers.

Conditions for Bi-fuel operation

• Mode MAN or AUT
• Binary input GAS DISABLE is not activated (if configured)
• Binary input GAS ENABLE is activated (if configured)
• No unconfirmed and no active Shut down and/or Stop alarms present
• Gen-set is running
• Transition to bi-fuel operation mode is possible only if actual
Engine power > Diesel protect:Min Power.
• The genset leaves the bi-fuel mode if
Diesel power < Diesel protect:DieselLimCls;
• The genset leaves the bi-fuel mode if
Engine power < (Diesel protect:DieselLimCls + Diesel protect: Min Power)/2
• No knocking sensor “Sensor 6” failed
• No DENOX fail
• Previous bi-fuel operation mode was terminated more than 10secs ago.
Default Shutdown and Slow stop of the gas

• Exhaust temperature (Left and Right on Vee engines); “Sensor 4” – analog signal, with two-stage
protection (warning and slow stop).
If too high temperature is measured, gas slow stop is accomplished.
• Boost Air Temperature; “Sensor 3” – analog signal, with two-stage protection (warning and slow
stop).
If too high temperature is measured, gas slow stop is accomplished.

• Gas Pressure downstream the Gas Pressure Regulator; “Sensor 2” – binary signal used to protect
the engine in case of failure of Gas Pressure Regulator. If too high pressure of gas is detected (and
contact is activated), immediate gas shutdown is accomplished. The period of gas shut-off opening
(Gas OK output) is spanned for Diesel protect:RegGasPrDel.
• Gas Pressure upstream the Pressure Regulator; “Sensor 5” – binary signal is used to protect the
engine in the case of gas drop during bi-fuel operation. If gas drop is detected, shutdown of gas is
accomplished.
• If diesel power decreases under Engine protect:DieselLimCls the immediate gas shutdown is
generated. Bi-fuel operation is blocked for next 10 seconds.
• If another general protection alarm is activated
Hint:
Every shutdown and protection slow stop must be confirmed by operator to enable next Bi-fuel operation.
Protections smoothly limiting the gas delivery

• Analog output from DENOX anti-knocking controller
If knocking is detected, DENOX analog output is rising and limiting the gas delivery by closing the
Throttle valve. If knocking is not detected, DENOX analog output is slowly decreasing and the
Throttle valve is opening again.
When the system is running on the limit of knocking, the DENOX output is gently opening and
closing the Throttle valve to keep the engine on the limit of knocking.
If the DENOX output is higher than Detonation Lim, ID-BF binary output KNOCKING is activated –
this indicates some problem with the system or with the engine, since normally only a few percent
reduction is enough to remove knocking
• Low diesel actuator current - value Diesel
When system is delivering gas to the engine, the diesel governor decreases the diesel portion to
keep the engine power on the requested level. For reliable ignition of the gas-air mixture in the
cylinder is necessary to keep the diesel portion above minimum level.
If Diesel < Engine protect: DieselLimMin, iD-BF is gently closing the Throttle valve to decrease
amount of gas and thus increase the diesel portion.
The value Diesel is measured or counted depending on which configuration is selected (with IS-
AIN8, I-CB or J1939).
• High exhaust temperature above the ExhaustTmpLim causes gently closing the Throttle valve to
decrease amount of gas and thus increase the diesel portion.

Operation instructions
Operational modes
OFF mode
Solenoid valves are closed, gas is closed, the function of bi–fuel is disabled. The engine is not involved by
conversion kit. The switching to OFF mode from MAN or AUT has the same effect like Emergent gas stop.
Firmware and controller configuration can be changed in OFF mode only.
MAN mode
In MAN mode you have to use pushbuttons START / STOP to switch to / from bi-fuel operation.
AUT mode
The function of the kit is fully automatic. If iD-BFis in AUT mode, it automatically opens gas and then slowly
opens the throttle valve.
Manual operation mode - MAN

Start bi-fuel operating
If you need to switch from diesel to bi-fuel operation and Conditions for Bi-fuel operations are satisfied, press
the START button. System will slowly open the throttle valve and engine smoothly switches over to bi-fuel
operation.
Finish bi–fuel operating

If you need to switch from bi-fuel to diesel operation then press STOP button. System will slowly close the
throttle valve and engine smoothly switches over to diesel operation. If the STOP button is pressed for the
second time during closing of gas throttle valve, immediate gas close is effected.
Close gas inlet hand valve while bi-fuel mode will not be explored for longer time!
In emergent situation press emergency GAS STOP pushbutton on panel.
Hint:
Do not use pushbutton STOP GAS for normal work because immediate close of gas valves cause a load
drop on the engine. Use STOP button to switch to diesel operation.
Automatic operation mode - AUT

Automatic run for bi-fuel starts immediately when conditions are fulfilled (see Conditions for Bi-fuel
operations)
Automatic run stops the bi-fuel operation when one or more of Conditions for Bi-fuel operations is not
fulfilled.
Hint:
If you need to switch from bi-fuel to diesel operation, switch to MAN and press STOP button. (see MAN
operating mode)
Hint:
If you need immediately (emergency) to close safety valves and throttle valve press emergency GAS STOP
pushbutton on panel.

Alarm management
Following alarms and protections are available:
Prefix Meaning
No protection
Wrn Warning
Sd Bi-fuel Shutdown
Stp Bi-fuel Slow Stop
Fls Sensor fail
Bw Broken wire
Alarm only
HisRecOnly
There are output signals assigned to each type of protection (see chapter Inputs and outputs):
• Common Warn
• Common Diesel
• Common EmeDiesel
• Common SD
• Common Fls
The additional output is Alarm, which is active while any of above named signals is active.
No protection
If the Alarm protection is not configured then input measures normally. However if the analog input value
exceeds the measuring range more than 6% then no Alarm and no Sensor fail is reported but the substituted
text “####” is displayed instead of wrong value.
Warning
When a warning comes up alarm message and Common Wrn output contact is closed. No other action is
performed.
Typical reasons of alarm are:
• Configured standard alarm Warning type or the Warning alarm as 1st level of next SD or Slow Stop
protections.
• Exceeding of warning limit of cylinder temperature
• Boost air temperature
• Warning RG
• HSC kit’s supply breaker is off
• Low or high Battery voltage
When a Shut down comes up alarm outputs and common warning output are closed. No other action is
performed.
Bi-fuel Shut down

When a protection comes up alarm output signalization Comm SD contact is closed and a message occurs.
Continuing protection disables the start of the genset even after FAULT RESET pushed. The status
message is “Not ready”
• Configured standard Shut down protection.
• Shut Down RG
• Cylinders exhaust temperature
• Low gas pressure on gas train inlet
• High gas pressure downstream of gas pressure regulator

When a Shut down comes up alarm outputs and common warning output are closed. No other action is
performed.
Bi-fuel Slow stop

When a protection comes up alarm output signalization Comm Diesel contact is closed and a message
occurs. Continuing protection disables the start of the genset even after FAULT RESET pushed. The status
message is “Not ready”
• Configured standard Slow Stop protection. The protection can be assigned to iS-BF controller input
• Cylinders exhaust temperature (MPS configuration)
• Boost air temperature
When a Diesel protection comes up alarm outputs and common warning output are closed. No other action
is performed.
Sensor fail detection

Sensor fail Fls is detected when measured value is 6.2% out of range. The controller screen will display
#### instead of the measured value.
The reasons of alarm is:
• Configured standard Fls Alarm. This alarm is either alone standing warning or it is the reason of
other protection (Warning, SD, Diesel). The level of the effect of the Fls Alarm is defined in process
of configuration. The Fls Alarm can be assigned to iD-BF controller analogue input and/or to
Programmable Logic Control functions – Force Protection.
When an alarm comes up alarm outputs and common signalization output are closed.
Broken wire
Broken wire (BW) alarm is indicated on ID-RPU module only.
Exhaust temperatures protection principles

Exhaust temperatures are protected in specific way which is selected during the configuration by Analog
Inputs:AlarmType = Cylinder. High temperature exhaust temperatures protections in bi-fuel operation are
accomplished by two methods in one moment. Each method evaluates the actual temperature in two levels
of protection.
Absolute temperature protection
Two levels of protective limits are defined by setpoints Engine Protect:MaxTcyl wrn and
Engine Protect:MaxTcyl stp. If the temperature exceeds the limit of second level then the Diesel Protection
is activated (MPS configuration) or Shut down respectively.(FCON configuration)
Differential temperature protection
The principle of differential cylinder exhaust temperature from the average temperature is explained in the
picture bellow. There is defined an double area round about average exhaust temperature of cylinders.
Setpoints define the limits of both areas.
The first level of protection (Warning) is defined by setpoints Engine Protect:Max+ClDifPmin1,
Engine Protect:Max-ClDifPmin1, Engine Protect:Max+ClDifPmax1, Engine Protect:Max-ClDifPmax1.
Setpoints Engine Protect:Max+ClDifPmin2, Engine Protect:Max-ClDifPmin2,
Engine Protect:Max+ClDifPmax2, Engine Protect:Max-ClDifPmax2 defines the second level of protections.
It means the Diesel Protection activated (MPS configuration) or Shut down (FCON configuration).

Alarms indication
There can be following actions when Alarm is active (depends on Alarm type and configuration):
• Alarm list record
• History list record
• Active call (when is enabled and modem is installed)
• Controller front panel LED indication
• Binary output ALARM is closed when Alarm is active or when was deactivated and FAULT RESET
button was not pressed to confirm.
Binary output ALARM opens when Alarm was deactivated (no other Alarm is active) and FAULT RESET
button was pressed to confirm.
• Binary output HORN is closed for adjustable time when any new Alarm occurs.
• Corresponding value reading (binary input state, analog input value, generator voltage, .. ) is inverse on
InteliDrive screen when value is out of limits (binary input protection is active).

Upgrade of iD-BF firmware

Experts which intend to download the upgraded firmware ( *.mhx file) and/or configuration ( *.aid file) into iD-
BF controller should add to the just installed ComAp PC Suite the Bi-fuel application.
The specialized bi-fuel application software is available in iD-BF-1.2.idc and newer. To upgrade the firmware
launch DriveConfig program and search for item Import firmware as follows:

The upgrade BF application come default like the others installed by ComAp PC Suite.
Virtual COM Port driver (VCP)

As first it is recommended to install the application (ComAp PC Suite) – see above.
The PC communicates with the iD-BF controller logically via COM port but physically via USB port. That
means it is necessary to install Virtual COM Port (VCP) mapped to USB.
If
• the iD-BF controller is connected to PC by USB/RS232 cable and powered
• and VCP driver is not installed
then the user is automatically prompted to install the driver. It is recommended to use the VCP driver
previously downloaded and unzipped from http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm.
Another standard way is to install the driver “off-line” on request of the user.

How to connect PC to ID-BF controller ?
Use the direct connection via RS232 AT link cable (CANNON 9, female connectors, crossed data cores)
Maximal length of cable 10m.
How to start DriveMonitor ?

How to download ID-BF controller history and store the history file?
and thereby open standard MS window Save archive. The default folder is: C:\Program
Files\ComAp\InteliDrive\Archives
If more than one genset in installed on the site then we recommend to define folder tree according the
number of gensets. The example see in the picture.
Note the language of the saving window corresponds to the adjusted language of MS Windows operation
system instead of DriveMonitor.

History window structure

Setpoints window
Setpoins may be visualized by the press of Setpoints icon. All setpoints are divided into groups according to
the logical meaning.
The items which value is eventually gray backgrounded are actually protected by password. The appropriate
level of the password must be passed to enable the modification of the value. Details see in the next article.
Password protection
Password is a four-digit number. Only setpoints associated with the entered password level can be
modified.
There are three levels of password protection.
0. User level allows change of non-protected setpoints only
1. Operator level allows change of setpoints protected by Operator level 1.
2. Master level allows change of setpoints protected by Operator 1. and Master level 2.
3. Supervisor highest level allows all setpoints or configuration changes, firmware upgrade.
There can be password protected:

• Setpoints (depends on configuration)
• Statistics values (Level 3 only)
• Engine commands (depends on configuration)
Even though one level may have been set from the front panel, the affected setpoints are not
accessible from DriveMonitor (direct or Modem) until this level is set in DriveMonitor (direct or Modem).
Setpoints opened from front panel are automatically closed 15 minutes after the last key has been
depressed or when wrong value of password is set.
Password is a four-digit number. Only setpoints associated with the entered password level can be
modified.
Any password can be changed once that level password or higher has been entered.
