OVERVIEW

The SGC 410 controller is a modern island genset controller with a user-friendly HMI and full graphic LCD.

It includes voltage and frequency measurement of the genset as well as electrical load measurement (True RMS).

Configurable analog and digital inputs/outputs are provided for various functions.

Remote communication is available via RS-485 Modbus and CAN ports.

The genset can be started and stopped remotely using the remote start/stop function.

Deep sleep mode is a useful feature that extends battery life by suspending the normal function of the controller when the genset is shut down.

Monitor engine safety, electrical load, on-site standby battery voltage, and shelter temperature (to reduce fuel consumption).

Configure parameters from a PC using the DEIF Smart Connect utility software. Connects to the PC via the controller’s USB Type B port.
