The provides for automatic transfer of a load from mains to generator
in the event of a mains supply failure. Intended for unattended operation, it is able to detect failure
of any phase of the mains and to start and switch over to a generator if the mains voltage goes
outside pre-set limits. Both automatic and manual control is possible. A test mode is also
available which allows the generator to be run without taking the load.
The unit monitors generator operation and gives warning of any faults that are detected, by LED
indicators. The unit monitors:
Mains supply voltage
Alternator voltage and frequency
Engine temperature
Oil Pressure
Charge generator voltage
Engine speed
It controls:
Engine fuel supply or engine stopping Mains and Generator contactors
Starter motor
Alarm horn
Automatic generator start and load transfer
on mains failure
EAOM-9F Features a four-digit, seven-segment LED display, providing extensive monitoring of
unit and generator parameters, including:
Three phase mains voltage
Alternator output voltage and frequency
Engine RPM
Battery voltage
Elapsed time
Error indication
Engine running time
Program Parameters
EAOM-9F ND has no display, offers identical functionality and programming via RS-232, and can
be used where electrical and engine metering is already in place.
The unit is extensively programmable through the front panel, with password protection on two
levels. Operational parameters can also be monitored and controlled from a PC via a built-in RS-
232 port.
If the engine fails to start on the first attempt, further attempts are made up to a programmed
number of times or until successful.
If a fault is detected, the unit shuts down the engine and indicates the failure by flashing a relevant
fault LED.
Emergency stop and remote inhibit inputs provide for remote control of the engine.Configurable
inputs can be programmed to perform many functions, such as warning alarms,stopping the
engine or disconnecting the load.
A configurable output can be programmed for various functions, including alarms, operation as a
pre-heat output, indication of engine running status, and indication that the product is in
Automatic mode.
The unit can be programmed using the buttons and display on the front panel. Refer to Section 5
Parameters for details. Alternatively, the unit can be programmed via the RS-232 communication
port, using PC based software.
