mtu Kinetic PowerPack anatomy

mtu diesel engine

Complying with the latest emissions standards; preheated; quick start and not running during conditioning mode pre-lubricated.

Synchronous machine

Four-pole synchronous machines from world-renowned manufacturers designed not to exceed Class F temperature rise; right-sized for your application and to absorb load harmonics.

Kinetic energy module

Patented accu provides stored kinetic energy to ride through mains interruptions; designed for a 10-year bearing life.

Vibration isolation

Thanks to the solid base frame with isolators between frame and equipment and direct floor installation, vibrations are reduced >97% .

Power panel

A power panel comprising input, output and automatic bypass circuits; additional upstream, down-stream or tie-breakers can be added, if required.

Control system

KS Vision HMI control system; class-leading electrical and mechanical monitoring including load level, mains failures, input and output voltage, frequencies and power factor; data logging feature recording all historic events.

Electromagnetic clutch

The prime starter system consists of standard engine starting motors. The clutch is maintenance-free and guarantees the diesel engine to start at all times, thanks to the redundant start feature.

How dynamic UPS works - the mtu Kinetic PowerPack

In the heart of the mtu Kinetic PowerPack‚ is its kinetic energy accu; a smart but simple system to store and retrieve kinetic energy. The kinetic energy accu is a brushless system and consists of two rotating parts. The outer rotor runs mechanically-free around the inner rotor. The inner rotor, driven by the main shaft, rotates at 1500 rpm (50 Hz) or 1800 rpm (60 Hz).

mtu Kinetic PowerPack-reliable power for critical applications

Critical process manufacturing

We protect leading companies with critical processes from power supply interruptions and low-quality power supply (electrical noise), – preventing production disruptions, wastage, equipment damage and missed deadlines. Ensure smooth operations and secured operations with the mtu Kinetic PowerPack.

Infrastructure & Logistics

We keep your facilities, equipment and information systems powered. Whether for airports, healthcare, tunnels, logistics or casinos in acute or long-term care, we will help you to focus on your business.

Keeping your power supply in perfect health, mtu  Kinetic PowerPacks offer a wide range of advantages.

Pharma

Even a short-term loss of power would mean the laboratories and cleanrooms would require extensive cleaning to reestablish sterility before rebooting the systems. With the mtu Kinetic PowerPack power outages, micro cuts or electrical noise or are no longer a concern for Pharma industries, the mtu Kinetic PowerPacks ensure operstions without disruptions.

Data Centers / IT

The energy needs of data centers are complex, time-sensitive and very specific. Data centers require power supply solutions that are reliable, modular, scalable and custom-fitted, which is exactly what we've developed our mtu solutions to be. Our technologies like mtu diesel genset or mtu Kinetic PowerPack reduce the risk of downtime, equipment damage and environmental incidents, saving costs and keeping data flowing.
