Estudio comparativo de las respuestas de los sistemas de sincronismo con controlador Woodward versus controlador EMCP4.4 Caterpillar para el respaldo de energía en el hospital de niños Roberto Gilbert en la ciudad de Guayaquil.

Abstract

The supply of uninterrupted electrical power is essential to ensure the quality and safety of medical services in hospitals, where any interruption can have serious consequences for the health of patients and the operation of critical equipment. To maintain the reliability of the power backup system it is necessary to maintain redundancy with several generator sets in parallel being controlled by control panels that are responsible for all control functions. This study delves into the technology of the current synchronization panel of the Roberto Gilbert Hospital's backup system in Guayaquil. To carry out this, an exhaustive collection of information has been carried out on the Woodward technology currently applied to this equipment. It is desired to raise the standards of reliability and response of the systems with new technology from the largest generator sets Caterpillar manufacturer, comparing its most recent generator synchronization technology with the current technology installed in the hospital. The advantages and disadvantages are presented until culminating in a success story applied to another medical institution in the city of Guayaquil.
