DSE8760

ATS/Auto Mains Controller

Features

The DSE8700 Series is an easy-to use, rear-mounted, multi-generator loadshare system, designed to synchronise up to 32 generators including electronic and non-electronic engines.

The module is available to order as a DSE8760 ATS variant, or the DSE8710 variant can be configured to function as a DSE8760.  The DSE8760 variant is designed for use with the DSE8710 Auto Start module or another compatible DSE Auto Start module.

The modules are designed to work with independent front display screens which are connected via a data link up to a maximum distance of 1km. These must be ordered as a separate item.

The DSE8700 Series monitors the system and indicates operational status and fault conditions, automatically starting or stopping the engine on load demand or fault condition.  System alarms are annunciated on the independent front screens, illuminated LEDs and audible sounder.

The event log will record 250 events to facilitate easy maintenance. An extensive number of fixed and flexible monitoring, metering and protection features are included as well as sophisticated communication and system expansion options.

Using the DSE PC Configuration Suite Software allows easy alteration of the operational sequences, timers and alarms.  With all communication ports capable of being active at the same time, the DSE8700 Series is ideal for a wide variety of demanding load share applications.
