Associated causal chains
This component is part ofInstallation causal chains— from cause to effect (gas quality → engine → exhaust gas → heat → efficiency). The AI reads the entire chain, not just the individual value.
Link with the entire installation
A CHP is never alone: electricity, heat and gas are linked, and with PV and battery storage, it becomes a system. The AI calculates the entire installation.
Frequently asked questions
What happens if the gas tank fill level falls below 30%?
The system detects a critical gas shortage and automatically shuts down the CHP to avoid a dry running phase or incorrect handling.
Why is the power adjusted gradually between 30% and 65%?
Zoning serves to regulate gas consumption proportionally to the current stock and ensure uniform operation of the CHP.
From what fill level is operation in high-load mode safe?
With a fill level above 65%, a sufficient reserve is available to operate the CHP without an immediate emergency stop during peak loads.
How is the fill level technically injected into the PLC (SPS)?
The value is generally captured via an ultrasonic or pressure sensor and provided as an analog or digital measured value for logical processing.
Why is the live measured value (e.g. 255.7) important for the operator?
It serves as a direct indicator of the current amount of gas in the CHP system and allows monitoring of the stock in real-time.
How does the control prevent an overflow of the gas tank?
The PLC detects the approach of the upper limit (65%) and adjusts the supply or consumption rate so that the maximum fill level is not exceeded.
