Product Details:

• The InteliDrive DCU Marine is an engine controller designed specially to meet the demanding needs of the marine market, providing a high level of performance coupled with extensive communication capabilities an incorporating hardwired safety functions and primary/secondary power switching.

• The controller is easily integrated into the ship’s control system and takes on board the full communication capability with electronic engines. ComAp developed this capability for their market leading gen-set controllers through the use of J1939 and redundant J1587 communication buses.

• This engine specific approach enables InteliDrive DCU Marine to communicate fully with the engine’s Electronic Control Unit (ECU), delivering a greater range of values and most importantly delivering all diagnostic information in intelligible plain text, instead of potentially misleading cryptic codes or flashing lights.

• The unit provides users with a highly flexible solution, featuring configurable inputs and output allowing the controller to be customized to  particular application or requirement . 

• Integrated solution with hardwired safety functions - less wiring and components.

• Full communication support of engines with ECU – simpler wiring, access to information from ECU via Modbus.

• Event driven History record, easy backt racking and problem solving.

• Load sharing for propulsion engines – better utilization of power of installed engines.

• Slave panel available – economical solution of  remote control.

• Integrated clutch control – less wiring and components.

• Many types of communication – easy supervision and servicing.

• Perfect price/performance ratio.Type approval from 10 major certification societies.

• Engine control, monitoring and protection.

• 14 binary inputs and outputs, 8 analog inputs.

• RS232/Modem/Modbus/Internet communication.

• Redundant module ID-RPU with hardwired safety functions activated in backup mode.

• Switching between primary and secondary battery (with ID-RPU module).

• Automatic switchover to backup mode in case of detection of main unit failure.

• Internal – configurable PLC functions.

• Graphical screen with icons and bar graphs.

• Event and time driven history record for backtracking.

• Different engine application support: Auxiliary, Emergency/Harbour, Propulsion.

• Clutch control for propulsion engines.

• Symmetrical load sharing for propulsion engines with J1939 (via CAN bus).

• Extension modules for expandable number of Inputs/Outputs (connected via CAN bus).

• Slave panels for remote control available.

• Inputs/Outputs configuration.

• Configurable list of values that are read from J1939 bus.
