All of the CPS generators listed on our store are powered with UK Perkins engines, which are some of the best engines on the market and have been used across numerous industries worldwide. The generator alternators are all from leading European brands such as Meccalte, Leroy Somer and Stamford.
Leading Brand Generator Control – Deep Sea Electronics UK
Inside the 450kVA diesel generator canopy is a controls and power enclosure which features a Deep Sea Electronics generator controller. These are the best generator controllers on the market and allow you to easily control and monitor all aspects of the engine and alternator performance such as:
