This document details the installation and operation requirements of the DSE8800 Series modules,
part of the DSEGenset® range of products.
The manual forms part of the product and should be kept for the entire life of the product. If the
product is passed or supplied to another party, ensure that this document is passed to them for
reference purposes.
This is not a controlled document. You will not be automatically informed of updates. Any future
updates of this document will be included on the DSE website at www.deepseaplc.com
The DSE8800 series is designed to provide differing levels of functionality across a common
platform. This allows the generator OEM greater flexibility in the choice of controller to use for a
specific application.
The DSE8810 controller has been designed to allow the operator to start and stop the generator, and
if required, transfer the load to the generator either manually (via fascia mounted push-buttons) or
automatically. Additionally, the DSE8860 automatically starts and stops the generator set depending
upon the status of the mains (utility) supply.
The user also has the facility to view the system operating parameters via the LCD display.
The DSE8800 module monitors the engine, indicating the operational status and fault conditions,
automatically shutting down the engine and giving a true first up fault condition of an engine failure by
a COMMON AUDIBLE ALARM. The LCD display indicates the fault.
The powerful ARM microprocessor contained within the module allows for incorporation of a range of
complex features:
• Text and graphical colour LCD display (supporting multiple languages).
• True RMS Voltage, Current and Power monitoring with minimum and maximum holt
• Harmonic Display
• Communications capability (RS485, RS232 and Ethernet)
• Engine parameter monitoring.
• Event log and instrumentation data log
• Fully configurable inputs for use as alarms or a range of different functions.
• Synchronising and load sharing with load demand start/stop
• Integral PLC to help provide customisation where required
• Fuel tank level monitoring to track fuel filling operations and detect fuel leak/theft
• Engine ECU interface to electronic engines.
Using a PC and the DSE Configuration Suite software allows alteration of selected operational
sequences, timers, alarms and operational sequences. Additionally, the module’s integral fascia
configuration editor allows adjustment of a subset of this information.
A robust plastic case designed for front panel mounting houses the module. Connections are via
locking plug and sockets..
Access to critical operational sequences and timers for use by qualified engineers, can be protected
by a security code. Module access can also be protected by PIN code. Selected parameters can be
changed from the module’s front panel.
The module is housed in a robust plastic case suitable for panel mounting. Connections to the
module are via locking plug and sockets.
