Auto-Maskin DCU 305 R3 Engine Controller

The DCU 305 R3 is the Marine Pro 300 panel for engines that have both conventional sensors and an engine ECU on the J1939 CAN bus. It reads engine data from the ECU and its own inputs, and combines the class-required monitoring and safety functions in one unit with a built-in backup of the shutdown channels.

On board it handles

• Start, stop and blackout start in emergency, auxiliary or combined mode, or as a propulsion panel
• J1939 CAN engine data plus 12 switch inputs, 5 analog inputs and magnetic pickups
• Every channel set as warning, alarm or shutdown; event log and plain-text alarms on the backlit display
• Relay outputs, Modbus RTU to the ship's alarm system, configured from a PC with Rudolf R3

System
A DCU 305 consists of the control panel, the RK-66 terminal card where the engine switches and senders are wired, and the two cables between them. The panel is slim enough for small enclosures and the terminal card mounts on a 35 mm DIN rail. Six extra 4–20 mA channels can be added with the AK-6, extra relays with the MK-14, and up to four DCU 305 units can be shown on one RSP 305 remote panel.

For engines without CAN bus the DCU 305 R3 LT is the matching panel. The 400 Series DCU 410E is Auto-Maskin's current controller for electronic engines.

Type approved by DNV, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas and ABS (Marine Pro 300 certificates in the downloads).
