Reliable and cost-effective controllers for OEM applications

The SGC (Single Genset Controller) series from DEIF is designed for controlling

a single genset in applications where synchronisation and power management

features are not required. The high-quality yet affordable range of controllers

is easy to configure, install, and commission. It gives OEMs and system designers

all the necessary features for reliable and cost-effective control solutions.

All SGC controllers feature a user-friendly interface and configurable inputs/outputs for various features.

Gensets can be started and stopped remotely, and the useful Deep Sleep mode extends battery

lifetime by suspending normal controller functions when the genset is off.

All SGC controllers provide various monitoring, measurement, and communication options,

and they can easily be configured from a PC using the DEIF Smart Connect utility software.
