Is the DSE8610 MKII the right controller for your system?

The DSE8610 MKII is designed for multi-generator applications requiring synchronizing, load sharing, and advanced system control.

This controller is typically used in:

• Parallel generator systems (2–32 units)
• Commercial and industrial backup power systems
• Data centers and hospitals
• Utility grid synchronization applications
• Facilities requiring load demand optimization or peak shaving

If your system involves multiple generators or grid interaction, the DSE8610 MKII is likely the correct controller.

Why choose the DSE8610 MKII?

Unlike standard generator controllers, the DSE8610 MKII provides:

• Automatic load demand management (start/stop generators based on load)
• Generator optimization and run-hour balancing
• Peak lopping and load shedding capabilities
• Advanced PLC functionality for custom system logic
• Full communication support (CAN, Ethernet, Modbus)
• Real-time monitoring, alarms, and event logging (up to 250 events)

Not sure if this is the right controller?

• Single generator system? → Consider simpler controllers like DSE6020 MKII
• Need basic ATS control? → DSE7310 MKII may be a better fit
• Running multiple generators in parallel? → DSE8610 MKII is the correct choice
