About the Deep Sea Electronics DSE4520

The DSE4520 is the original (MKI) auto mains (utility) failure module of DSE's compact DSE4510 and DSE4520 pair. DSE's data sheet gives it a mains (utility) input of 15 V to 415 V AC (Ph to N) and 26 V to 719 V AC (Ph to Ph), and auxiliary outputs E and F as well as C and D, which the DSE4510 does not have. It shares the DSE4510's 140 mm x 113 mm x 43 mm case and 118 mm x 92 mm cut-out. Deep Sea Electronics lists the DSE4520 as obsolete and names the DSE4520 MKII as its replacement, a different module; its notice 056-035 also names the DSEG4500.

What is the DSE4520 used for?

The DSE4520 watches the mains (utility) supply and starts the generating set when the mains fails. It also protects the engine and alternator in a compact panel space.

Lifecycle and successor

Discontinued.

OEM successor: DSE4520 MKII

Before you order

What to photograph or confirm so the right unit is quoted.

Check the model number DSE4520 on the module's label; DSE's later version carries MKII after the number and is a different module. Send us a photo of the label and we will confirm the details before quoting.

OEM successor to DSE4520

Named by Deep Sea Electronics as the successor. It is an upgrade, not a like-for-like spare: check wiring, I/O and configuration for your installation before ordering it in place of the DSE4520.
