DCU 410E Engine Controller

The DCU 410E is the base building block to build a supervision system for both variable speed (propulsion or pumps) or fixed speed (generating set) diesel engines.

It is a compact unit comprising of a front face utilizing a 5.7” colour screen with 70 PPI resolution, which can be mounted to almost any flat surface with a cut-out.

Description

The DCU 410E is the base building block to build a supervision system for both variable speeds (propulsion or pumps) or fixed speed (generating set) diesel engines.

It is a compact unit comprising of a front face utilizing a 5.7” colour screen with 70 PPI resolution, which can be mounted to almost any flat surface with a cut-out.

The DCU 410E accepts input data from the engine J1939 CAN bus link plus multiple physical I/O, which can be expanded with expansion units. It can communicate with the ships alarm system on CANopen and Modbus RTU, as well as Modbus TCP on standard Ethernet.

The DCU 410E also provides engine control logic and the outputs required, including but not limited to, pre-lubrication control, start & stop signals, both ETR and ETS, plus remote interfaces for these functions.

Connections are made via clearly labelled connectors on the rear of the panel and need no special tools.

Finally, the panel is fully prepared for remote panel integration and works seamlessly with the Auto-Maskin remote panel(s) and the Marine Broadcast, a cloud-based service giving users on any remote device running a standard web browser access to the alarm list of the connected vessel.
