semiconductor output, enabling the The DATAKOM model DKG-110 is use of distant visual warning lights. a low cost, microprocessor controlled An alarm signal will cause the engine protection unit intended for use related alarm led to turn on, the related in manual generating sets as a safety output to be active, the fuel output to shutdown device. be deenergized and the alarm output The unit is mounted on a standard to be energized. To reset the alarms, DIN rail inside the generator control turn off power for 5 seconds. panel. The unit has Energize to Stop and The unit offers the basic protection 60Hz options selected at the features for a genset as Engine High manufacture stage. Temperature, Engine Low Oil Pressure The unit uses two part connectors and Generator for easy replacement. Overspeed/Underspeed. The unit is available in a DIN rail The limits for the correct generator mount package with standard frequency are 30 to 57 Hz.

The Safety On signal is picked up from the AC Generator voltage input. FEATURES The protections are activated 4 seconds after the AC voltage is DIN rail mounted, established. Low cost, The unit is normally powered up via Fuel and alarm relay outputs, the start/stop key of the control panel. 3 semiconductor lamp outputs, It feeds the fuel solenoid of the engine. Generator voltage input, On power-up the power led is steadily Survives cranking dropouts, on. When the protections are active, Standard dimensions, 36mm width, the led will be flashing. Plug-in connection system for easy replacement OPERATION TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS In its initial state, the unit monitors the Safety On Step control: 8 bit microcontroller. signal. In this state the Power On led is steadily on. Generator voltage: 50 to 277VAC (Ph-N) The safety on signal is picked up from the AC Generator frequency: 20 to 100Hz. generator voltage input. DC Supply Range: When the Safety On signal arrives, the unit 9 to 18 V-DC (12V models) enables alarm inputs after Safety On Timer (4 18 to 33 V-DC (24V models) seconds) has elapsed. In this state the power on Current consumption: led flashes. The alarm inputs will be enabled 45 80 mA-DC typical (no alarm) seconds after the unit is energized, even if the 120 mA-DC max.

Current for each relay output: 10A. on, the fuel relay will be deenergized and the alarm Max. Current for each alarm output: 250mA. output will be energized. The relay outputs supply Operating temp.: -10C (14F) to 60 C the battery positive voltage. (140F). To reset the alarm condition turn off power for 5 Storage temp.: -20C (-4F) to 80 C seconds. (176F).

GENERATOR AC VOLTAGE INPUT: Conformity (EU directives) G/ N: generator phase and neutral. Use these -73/23/EEC and 93/68/EEC (low inputs as Safety On signal in generator voltage) applications. -89/336/EEC, 92/31/EEC and FAULT INPUTS: Oil Pressure and High 93/68/EEC (electro-magnetic Temperature inputs. Normally open, negative compatibility) switching contacts are acceptable. Norms of reference: FAULT OUTPUTS: EN 61010 (safety requirements) The outputs are ‘open collector’ type EN 50081-2 (EMC requirements) semiconductor outputs. The output will be at EN 50082-2 (EMC requirements) negative supply level and sinks current when active. It is similar to an electronic relay contact to the negative supply. RELAY OUTPUTS: FUEL: Positive output relay activated at power on. (10 amps @28V-DC) ALARM: Positive output relay activated by any alarm condition. (10 amps @28V-DC)
