Generator Controls:

Digital-type, automatic voltage regulator that features voltage regulation, generator fault protection, and a generator operating parameter display. The voltage regulator monitors the 400 Hz output when 400 Hz is in use. The voltage regulator provides line drop compensation on 400 Hz. The voltage regulator displays the generator output operating parameters such as voltage, current, and frequency, digitally on a backlit LCD. The voltage regulator is programmed to provide generator output fault protection in the following settings:

  • Over frequency: 420 Hz in 5 seconds
  • Under frequency: 380 Hz in 7 seconds
  • Over voltage: 130 volts in 2 seconds
  • Under voltage: 100 volts in 7 seconds
  • Overload: 125% of rated load for 5 minutes

The voltage regulator displays and latches the fault if any of the above should occur.

Engine Controls:

Modern diesel electronic engines with electronic engine governors provide precise frequency regulation and fast transient response. Engine protection such as low oil pressure, high coolant temperature, and over speed protection are programmed into the engine electronic control module. An engine diagnostic connector is provided for communicating with the engine. Engine operating parameters are displayed with electronic gages via SAE J1939 Controller Area Network, which include:

  • Engine hours
  • Engine RPM
  • System Voltage
  • Oil Pressure
  • Coolant temperature
  • % Engine load at the current RPM
