. The charge fail input is actually a combined input and output. Whenever the generator is required to
run, the terminal provides excitation current to the charge alternator field winding.
When the charge alternator is correctly charging the battery, the voltage of the terminal is close to the
plant battery supply voltage. In a failed charge situation, the voltage of this terminal is pulled down to a
low voltage. It is this drop in voltage that triggers the
charge failure alarm. The level at which this
operates and whether this triggers a warning or shutdown alarm is configurable using the DSE Config
Suite Software.

NOTE : DSE can supply a suitable magnetic pickup device, available in two body thread
lengths :
DSE Part number 020-012 - Magnetic Pickup probe 5/8 UNF 2½” thread length
DSE Part number 020-013 - Magnetic Pickup probe 5/8 UNF 4” thread length
Magnetic Pickup devices can often be ‘shared’ between two or more devices. For example, one
device can often supply the signal to both the DSE8600 series module and the engine governor. The
possibility of this depends upon the amount of current that the magnetic pickup can supply.
