9. DUAL GENSET PARALLEL OPERATION
The DKG-705 is able to work in Dual Genset Parallel mode without any hardware or software
modifications. The only additional accessory needed is a simple RS-232 serial data cable.
The units used in paralleling are standard DKG-705s with standard software, which permits very
low cost synchronization applications.
The basic features are:
-simple and cost effective application,
-adaptation to all kinds of AVR and GOV controllers without extra hardware,
-different power ratings acceptable for both gensets,
-single genset load enabling,
-slave genset run/stop depending on user defined power levels and time delays,
-equal aging: automatic master/slave switching depending on ‘Engine Hours to Service’,
-automatic master/slave switching in case of failure of the Master unit,
-manual master/slave switching allowed,
-predefined Master unit without the need for AVR and GOV controls on master,
-synchronization with mains: uninterrupted transfer to/from mains,
-load share with mains: soft transfer to/from mains.
Please refer to the DKG-705 Dual Genset Parallel Application Manual for a detailed application
guide.
