Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the controller is flush-mounted in a vibration-dampened panel enclosure.
• Maintain proper clearance around the unit to ensure adequate ventilation and heat dissipation.
• Use shielded twisted-pair cabling for all communication interfaces (CANopen/Modbus) to minimize EMI interference.
• Verify supply voltage polarity before powering the unit; ensure the DC supply is within the 8 to 40 VDC range.
• Always disconnect power before performing wiring changes or maintenance on the terminal blocks.
• Ensure a solid chassis ground connection to the panel to prevent electrical noise issues.

FAQ

Does the EASYGEN-2500-5 require an external PLC?

No, the unit features an integrated LogicsManager that allows users to program custom I/O logic directly within the controller, eliminating the need for external PLC hardware for standard power management tasks.

Can this controller manage multiple generators?

Yes, the EASYGEN-2500-5 is designed to support load sharing and synchronization for up to 32 generators in a single system.
