SEL-2240 Axion Bay Controller

Comprehensive Monitoring and Reliable

Control for All Your Bay Control Applications

The SEL-2240 Axion Bay Controller combines modular I/O cards, advanced automation, a powerful logic engine, cur-
rent and voltage measurement, a flexible color touchscreen HMI, and advanced communications protocols to provide
comprehensive monitoring and reliable control for your bay control application. Choose from a variety of digital and
analog modules to fit your application requirements. The advanced automation capability, combined with the diversity
and flexibility of I/O modules, allows you to implement any blocking or interlocking scheme required by the switching
devices in your substation. Use the Axion Controller as an economical yet powerful solution for monitoring and con-
trolling one or more substation bays at the transmission or distribution level. Configure custom screens by using the Bay
Screen Builder application in ACSELERATOR RTAC.

Major Features and Benefits

➤ Switch Position Monitoring. Monitor as many as four position states (open, close, alarm, and in-progress) of two-
position switches, and as many as eight position states of three-position switches. Monitor as many switches as
your application requires. Measure switch position directly by using digital input signals or indirectly by using
other devices via communications protocols (e.g., IEC 61850).
➤ Interlocking Control Logic. Use the powerful IEC 61131-3 logic to program complex automation functions,
interlocking schemes, or bypass logic. Create innovative logic solutions directly in ACSELERATOR RTAC by using
any of the following editor tools: Tag Processor, Structured Text, Ladder Logic, or Continuous Function Chart.
➤ Monitor and Control of Substation Equipment in Local or Remote Mode. Perform local and remote control
and monitoring of circuit breakers, disconnect switches, shunt reactors, and capacitor banks. The local touchscreen
display makes the local control quick and efficient. Perform remote control and monitoring by using a variety of
industry-standard protocols, such as IEC 61850, DNP3, Modbus, MIRRORED BITS communications, and
IEC 60870-101/103/104.

➤ Synchronism Check. Use the SynchronismCheck function block to verify that the voltages on both sides of the
breaker are within allowed phase and magnitude. The SynchronismCheck function block compensates for circuit
breaker close time. Use selectable voltage sources as inputs for the synchronism check on each breaker.
➤ Design Custom Screens to Meet Your System Needs. Design bay screens, monitor screens, or meter screens by
launching ACSELERATOR® Bay Screen Builder SEL-5036 Software for Axion Bay Controller. Display the bay
configuration as a single-line diagram (SLD) on the touchscreen. Use ANSI and IEC symbols, along with analog
and digital labels, for the SLD to indicate the status of breaker and disconnect switches, bus voltages, and power
flow through the breaker. In addition to SLDs, design custom screens to show the status of any digital or analog tag
of the RTAC logic. Design these custom screens with the help of ACSELERATOR Bay Screen Builder in
conjunction with ACSELERATOR RTAC. You can create as many as 25 custom screens.
➤ Programmable Pushbuttons and LED Status Indication. Program six pushbuttons to quickly perform custom
control commands. Each pushbutton (located on the Axion Bay Controller front panel) includes two
programmable tricolor LEDs. Seven general-purpose tricolor LEDs are available for alarms or any other local
indication. Use IEC 61131-3 logic to program custom operator control and LED status functions.
➤ Control Multiple Bays. Control and monitor circuit breakers, disconnect switches, and earthing switches for
multiple bays with a single SEL-2240 Axion Bay Controller system.
➤ Flexible I/O Selections for Your Application. Include hundreds of digital and analog I/O points in a single panel.
➤ Distributed I/O. Improve safety and reduce copper conductor and installation time by installing the remote Axion
ac analog input modules and digital I/O modules in the substation yard, near the circuit breaker, and control the
breakers and monitor current, voltages, and status of contact points from the substation control building.
➤ Deterministic I/O Performance. Update connected I/O at a deterministic processing interval; all inputs provide
1 ms SER time stamps.
➤ Redundant Power Supplies for Maximum Availability. Apply redundant power support with two load-sharing
SEL-2243 power couplers for applications requiring two independent power sources.
➤ Synchronized Current and Voltage Measurements. Retrieve high-accuracy current and voltage measurements
with the advantage of synchronized measurements. Multiple AC Analog Input modules in an Axion system sample
all measurements at the same time to ensure a common reference for all voltages and currents. This enables many
time-deterministic control applications without performing additional processing to align the measurements to a
reference. Use this capability to accomplish complex control schemes including load shedding, microgrid control,
and synchronism check.
➤ Create Historic Data Logs. Leverage the Dynamic Disturbance Recording (DDR) library to continuously record
fundamental, rms, synchrophasor quantities, or I/O status data.
➤ Sensor Integration. Use the SEL-2245-22 DC Analog Input modules to integrate gas pressure, oil level, tap
position sensor, or any other voltage (–10 to +10 Vdc) or current (–20 mA to +20 mA) sensor. Use the SEL-2600
Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) Module to integrate RTD sensors. Sensors can also be integrated via
communications protocols.
➤ Low-Energy Analog (LEA) Inputs. Eliminate outage costs by using the SEL-2245-221 Low Voltage Monitoring
Input module to connect external split-core current transformers.
➤ Secure Operation. Manage user accounts and permissions to only allow access to the touchscreen to approved
users.
