Key Features

• Supports droop & isochronous (zero‑droop) control modes for single‑unit stable speed control and multi‑unit parallel load balancing

• Receives magnetic pickup speed signals and provides raise/lower speed/voltage bias outputs to governors and AVRs

• Accurate load‑sharing logic ensures equal power distribution among paralleled generator sets

• Built‑in protection functions: reverse power, over/under frequency, over/under voltage, overspeed monitoring

• Rich analog/digital I/O ports, supports RS‑485 Modbus RTU communication for upper‑level system connection

• Rugged industrial‑grade design with strong anti‑EMI, anti‑vibration and wide temperature adaptability
