Rolls-Royce tactical electric power systems are compact
and lightweight, ideal for integration into shelters
and containers. Variable speed operation enables excellent
fuel efficiency, and power conditioning provides very
high quality, clean power, particularly suited to C4ISR
applications. Equipment is designed to comply fully
with stringent military and environmental specifications.
Generators are highly mobile, diesel-powered and compatible
with other NATO and US Army generation and distribution
equipment. A modular approach is taken across the range,
providing both cost-effective, off-the-shelf solutions
between 2 and 40kW and customised options to meet specialised
requirements.
For optimum interoperability generators can provide
dual frequency and voltage (e.g. 50Hz / 60Hz) and automatically
parallel to create flexible power plants with automatic
sequencing and synchronisation.
Innovative features include ‘stealth’ type
technology – reduced radar, acoustic and thermal
signatures – and user-friendly health and usage
monitoring and control systems which provide prognostics
and diagnostics, and maintenance and repair schedules.
Control and health and usage monitoring systems (HUMS)
Generator control and monitoring equipment provides
automatic start/stop sequencing and synchronisation
functions. Parameter surveillance, diagnostic routines
and maintenance and repair schedules assist in quick
and accurate fault diagnosis, prevention and rectification,
while data logging functions provide accurate in-service
data feedback to inform appropriate engineering and
logistics action, assist with mission planning, etc.
Intuitive, easy interfaces give operator instructions.
