Automation System
Wärtsilä Unified Controls - UNIC is a fully embedded and distributed engine management system,
which handles all control functions on the engine; for example start sequencing, start blocking,
fuel injection, ignition control, cylinder balancing, knock control, speed control, load sharing,
normal stops and safety shutdowns.
The distributed modules communicate over an internal communication bus.
The power supply to each module is physically doubled on the engine for full redundancy.
Control signals to/from external systems are hardwired to the terminals in the main cabinet on the
engine. Process data for alarm and monitoring are communicated over a Modbus TCP connection
to external systems.
14.1
Technical data and system overview
14.1.1 Ingress protection
The ingress protection class of the system is IP54 if not otherwise mentioned for specific
modules.
14.1.2 Ambient temp for automation system
The system design and implementation of the engine allows for an ambient engine room
temperature of 55°C.
Single components such as electronic modules have a temperature rating not less than 70°C.
Short explanation of the modules used in the system:
COM
Communication Module. Handles strategic control functions (such as start/stop
sequencing and speed/load control, i.e. "speed governing") of the engine.
The communication modules handle engine internal and external communication, as well as
hardwired external interfaces.
LOP
The LOP (local operator panel) shows all engine measurements (e.g. temperatures and
pressures), provides various engine status indications as well as an event history and local
control.
