Standard Equipment

generator demand priority control

  • Automatically match the on-line generator capacity to the loads, and avoid unnecessary operation of generator sets.

Optional Equipment

data table interface

  • Accommodates interface with a building management system for monitoring all system parameters via Modbus RTU or TCP

supplemental hardware synchronization check relay (ansi 25 device)

  • Provides additional discrete synchronization protection

remote power monitoring system

  • To monitor breaker status, alarms, metering and other operating parameters
