Control Card
DEEP SEA control plate, DSE 4520 with grid monitor that starts-up the generator set when it detects a failure in the
electrical power supply from the grid and sends a signal to the switching panel to switch from the grid position to the
group position . Once the power supply has been re-established, it sends an order to the switching panel to transfer
the generator set power to the grid and shuts-down the generator set once it has cooled down. It also starts-up the
generator set using an external signal.
Also, control plate DSE 4520 checks a large number of parameters of the generator set which allows it to display
information, statuses and alarms. If required, it will shutdown the generator set: Due to high coolant fluid
temperature, low oil pressure, low coolant fluid level, etc.
Includes a LCD screen with lighting, 2 navigation menubuttons, independent operational mode buttons, and alarms
and status indicating LEDs.
Communications via USB, and Completely configurable using a PC in Windows environment and free Scada type
software in real time.
Includes reading and displaying of parameters with RMS values, real time clock, events history log up to 15 events
and programming of alarms, events, start-ups and shutdowns.
