Triton

Overview

The Triton is ideal for use with generator sets equipped with base mounted fuel tanks, typical of data center applications. It is a robust, turnkey system which provides essential fuel reliability functions while eliminating the need to procure and assimilate diverse, unrelated and potentially incompatible sub-systems. With the Triton, these essential functions run and communicate seamlessly and are supported by a single source: Simplex.

The Simplex Triton is packaged for interior or exterior (with optional weatherproof enclosure) installation, single fuel inlet/outlet connections and simplified power connections. All required level, leak and temperature sensors along with integration software are included.

We are experts at building products that meet our customer's exact requirements. Contact Simplex if your job specifications require additional options or considerations.

Features

Critical Functions:

Tank level gauging
Tank leak protection
Fuel level alarms
Fuel heating and temperature control
Fuel filtration including water separation
Tank filling and overfill protection when combined with a Simplex Automatic FuelPort, Mini-SmartPump or SmartPump
Conversion of base tank to an automatic day tank when combined with Simplex Packaged Pump Sets or Simplex Pump Controllers
Communication with building management or SCADA systems, event logging.

The functions above are integrated into an onboard PLC with touchscreen operator interrace running proprietary software. The PLC communicates with the BMS or SCADA system via MODBUS (RS485 standard, Ethernet optional).

Specifications

Digital Control	The Triton is equipped with a digital control system as follows: a. PLC with discrete inputs and outputs as required, RS232/485 (standard) and Ethernet (optional) ports, 4-20mA inputs, thermocouple inputs, SD program card for easy upgrade or modification of resident program. b.
