About the DEIF GPU-2

The DEIF GPU (GPU-2) is a generator protection unit from DEIF's Multi-line 2 range: a compact unit with all the functions needed to protect a synchronous or asynchronous generator, with galvanically separated three-phase measuring. A separate display, mounted on the unit or in the switchboard door, shows measured values, alarms and a 150-event log. DEIF lists approvals from ABS, BV, DNV, GL, LR, RINA and RS and intends the unit for land-based and marine applications.

What is the GPU-2 used for?

On ships the GPU-2 protects each generator in the switchboard, tripping the generator breaker on faults such as reverse power or overcurrent. Replacing it like for like keeps the existing set points and wiring.

Lifecycle and successor

Discontinued.
