PowerWizard 2.0 —
Digital Control Panel
The PowerWizard 2.0 control panel is a feature
packed solution to control, monitor and
communicate with your generator set. It includes
both manual and automatic start / stop and an
engine cool down timer. The 32-bit
microprocessor-based system eliminates
individual meters, gauges and switches, reduces
wiring and results in a highly durable and robust
system.

The PowerWizard 2.0 panel combines generator

set control and monitoring in one module for
easy access to controls, metering, protection
device settings and diagnostic information.

PowerWizard 2.0 for Perkins powered models

The PowerWizard 2.0 panel has an accessory
data link allowing the connection of annunciator
modules and a Modbus data link allowing
remote customer monitoring.

FEATURES
● Fully featured power metering, protective ● User-friendly, convenient, customer
relaying and expanded AC metering programmability directs the customer to logical
parameter groups (Ex. AC metering, protective
● Real-time clock allows for time stamping of
relaying, engine monitoring) for quick keypad
diagnostics & events in the control’s logs
access
● Programmable protective relaying, available as
● Set points & software are stored in nonvolatile
alarm and shutdown, protects against
memory, preventing loss during a power
undervoltage, overvoltage, underspeed,
outage
overspeed, underfrequency, overfrequency
● True RMS sensing ensures AC metering
● Expanded remote customer communications
accuracy of 1% for AC voltage, current, and
are supported by MODBUS protocol using
power parameters
RS-485, which easily interfaces with existing
plant systems and equipment ● Five levels of security allow operators to have
different access privileges
● Digital, 32-bit microprocessor-based system
eliminates the need for multiple switches, ● Two display languages, (English and a
meters, transducers, relays, and sending units, customer language of your choice*) to aid
which translates to less wiring and fewer service and commissioning
opportunities for mechanical failures
● Simultaneous viewing of all AC L-L voltages, all
AC L-N voltages, or all AC line currents
