Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can I replace a DSE3110 with a DSE3120 without rewiring?
A: In most cases yes — the DSE3120 uses the same connector pinout. However, verify the parameter settings match your engine’s protection thresholds.
Q: Does the DSE3110 support Modbus or remote monitoring?
A: No. The DSE3110 is a basic controller without communication ports. Upgrade to DSE7310 or higher for Modbus/RS-485 support.
Q: What is the difference between DSE3110 and DSE3110 MKII?
A: The MKII revision includes improved EMC filtering and updated firmware. It is a drop-in replacement and functionally identical for most applications.
Q: Is the DSE3110 suitable for AMF (Auto Mains Failure) applications?
A: No. The DSE3110 handles auto start/stop only. For AMF, select the DSE5110 or DSE6110 series.
Q: Can Konmask supply DSE3110 in bulk quantities?
A: Yes. Contact us for volume pricing, lead times, and OEM supply agreements.
