Press article HEINZMANN (May, 2007)

HEINZMANN, specialists in generator controls for isochronous load sharing and synchronizing with over three decades extensive experience of supplying purpose designed analogue and digital control systems to the Gen-Set industry.

HEINZMANN’s Digital Generator Management system DGM THESEUS is an allrounder. Whether in island or mains parallel operation, single genset or group, there is an appropriate version for every application which, in conjunction with the HMIs ARGOS or PANOPTES, provides a comfortable and user-friendly system.

DGM THESEUS is available in four main variants: BASIC, MEDIUM, EXTENDED and GROUP. Each of these has a predetermined range of functions and communications interfaces suitable for user configuration via the powerful DcDesk 2000 communication software. Beside standard installation, all but the BASIC variant also provide custom-engineered solutions to be developed to meet specific needs.

Further enhancements are a HMI like the touch screen operable PANOPTES as well as the economic solution of ARGOS or interfacing to PLC/SCADA via different interfaces. 

An integral speed governor for interfacing with the most standard positioner electronics or an external speed governor/ positioner make THESEUS the complete generator management solution. HEINZMANN also provides THESEUS systems to interface with existing analogue facilities via load share module to be expanded to solutions with complete control boards. THESEUS has proven its suitability for all: land based, as well as off-shore and marine applications thanks to its Lloyd‘s Register and DNV marine type approval certificate.
