Universal Engine Control System
Ordercode: ECS

A monitoring and control system of a diesel engine is subject to vibrations and high temperatures. This makes the product life cycle of a diesel engine different from the product life cycle of a monitoring and control system. Renewing an engine's monitoring and control system upgrades it to the latest safety standards.

The system
The system can be easily adapted to any engine type. The ECS can be used as a pin-compatible replacement for an existing engine monitoring and safety system, but it can also extend your existing engine monitoring and safety system. The system is modular, allowing systems to vary from a small type-approved engine safety system to a complete engine monitoring and control system. Options such as remote monitoring via direct wiring or the cloud can be implemented.
