Question 1

Does the ECS 400 work with generators from other brands, or only Caterpillar?

Accepted Answer

The ECS 400 integrates with Caterpillar genset controllers as well as several third-party controllers (ComAp, Deep Sea, DEIF, Woodward), PV inverters, battery storage, and switchgear. Contact us to confirm compatibility with your existing equipment.

Question 2

How many generators can one ECS 400 unit manage?

Accepted Answer

Up to 32 generation assets in a single microgrid or multi-generator installation, expandable further with custom engineering services.

Question 3

Do I need a generator to use this?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the ECS 400 is a supervisory control and monitoring system, not a generator itself. It's designed to manage and coordinate existing generator sets and other distributed energy resources.

Question 4

Is installation included in the price?

Accepted Answer

Installation is not included in the listed price. We can put you in touch with installers, or your own electrician can complete the installation and connection to your distribution board or automatic transfer switch.
