Load sharing modules added to deep sea range

Deep Sea Electronics Inc. (DSE) has added its first UL-listed load sharing modules to its ever-expanding line of generator set and engine controls. "The launch of the 5510 and 5520 modules gives DSE complete integrated load share systems for all types of power generation applications," said Paul Apsey, vice president/ technical sales manager for the Rockford, Ill.-based subsidiary of Deep Sea Electronics Plc, based in the U.K. The U.S. operation has recently moved into new and larger operations in Rockford.

DSE's 5510 is a multiple gen-set control with full load sharing capability, while the 5520 is a single set control that allows paralleling with the utility. DSE's P810 software has also been expanded to allow easy programming of the load sharing modules.

The 5510 is equipped with synchronizing and load sharing capabilities including auto synch control, volts, frequency matching with built-in synchroscope, and closing onto dead Bus. These units also feature VAP, control, peak shaving, NFPA 110 level 1 compliance and single phase paralleling. Apsey said the 5510 has direct and flexible outputs from the module to allow connections to commonly used governors and automatic voltage regulators.
