DSE8610 MKII
Synchronising & Load Sharing Auto Start Control Module
The DSE8610 MKII is a market-leading Synchronising Auto Start Control Module suitable for use in a multi-generator loadshare system, designed to synchronise up to 32 generators including electronic and non-electronic engines. The DSE8610 MKII monitors the generator and indicates operational status and fault conditions, automatically starting or stopping the engine on load demand or fault conditions.
System alarms are annunciated on the LCD screen (multiple language options available), illuminated LED and audible sounder. The event log records 250 events to facilitate easy maintenance, and an extensive number of fixed and flexible monitoring, metering and protection features are included. Designed to offer increased built in support for active sensors for 0 V to 10 V & 4 mA to 20 mA. Comprehensive communication and system expansion options are available.
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 DSE8610 MKII is ideal for a wide variety of demanding load share applications. The Advanced PLC tool within Configuration Suite provides users with an extremely powerful configuration tool for the most demanding applications.

Specification
DC SUPPLY
CONTINUOUS VOLTAGE RATING8 V to 35 V DC continuous
CRANKING DROPOUTS
Able to survive 0 V for 100 mS, providing supply was at least 10 V before dropout and supply recovers to 5 V. This is achieved without the need for internal batteries. Backlight will not be maintained during cranking.
