Dummy load
The generating set is equipped with a resistive bench
positioned in front of the radiator that allows the system to
correctly carry out all the regeneration processes, regardless
of the electrical utilities connected to the generating set.
Activation of the dummy load is automatically controlled by
the generator control unit, which continuously compares the
regeneration signal coming from the engine with the electri-
cal power supplied by the generator, causing the activation
of the dummy load.
No operation is required to control the dummy load.
