What is the function of the electronic controller on a diesel generator set? These electronic controllers are used to protect and are designed to provide control of the engine and any auto start function for automatic transfer switch or inverter applications. Most of the controllers are digital and are used to safely shutdown and monitors the operation of the engine and the generator. Usually the size of the generator and the applications regulates the sophistication of the controller. A residential or small business applictions are typically a LED indicator for any shutdowns and a start-stop button or autostart function of most diesel generator sets. The function of the electronic controller on a larger diesel generator set provides monitoring of the hertz, volts and amperage in addition to the basic safeties and auto start features. In the auto start mode the controller can be used with an automatic transfer switch or inverter/battery system as a standby/emergency genset. Complex controllers use safeties and shutdowns for such things as low oil pressure, high temperature, over/under speed, engine start over -crank, low fuel levels, low coolant level, KVA output, KW ouput, Power factor, engine and generator gauges in real time. These complex electronic controllers can also have the capability to have remote monitoring and starting. These electronic controller on diesel generator sets are very important for industrial and manufacturing facilities to keep them up and running. Another place they would use the more complex electronic controllers are in emergency care facilities like hospitals, nursing homes and etc.
When purchasing a diesel
generator set, check to see what the function of the
electronic controller has with your diesel generator set and if
it will take care of your applications. Many leading manufacturer
