Overview Manuals Product Features & Benefits Software & Physical Configurations

Features:

  • Rugged, potted design provides ultimate reliability in extreme environments
  • Fully programmable I/O including an option for two analog inputs provides exceptional flexibility in all applications
  • Multiple synchronizer modes for better system implementation
The DGC-2020HD is an advanced but rugged genset control system designed for paralleling and complex load sharing schemes. With comprehensive control, metering, expandability, and protection capabilities, the DGC-2020HD is a total system solution for generator set applications. Its compact package allows users to save both space and money.

The most significant core advantage of this model lies in its advanced paralleling, load balancing, and system grid management capabilities. It is specifically designed for complex multi-unit grid connections and system segmentation, supporting peak shaving, grid power input/output control, and up to 32 levels of automatic load shedding. In practical applications, its highly robust potting design allows it to easily withstand vibrations and temperature variations in extreme environments such as oil fields, ships, or outdoor generator rooms.

The DGC-2020HD BASLER ELECTRIC Digital generator controller module may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
