INTRODUCTION The ES53 Control Module is a combined “engine controller + time delay module.” It is typically mounted at the engine, to minimize runs of heavy current carrying wiring. With #22 gauge wire, the distance between engine and transfer switch can be up to 400 feet. Standard cable length supplied with the package is 50’, and other lengths are available in 25’...

WIRING GUIDELINES DO NOT use wire smaller than 18 AWG. The connections supplying DC power to the ES53 panel should preferably run directly from the battery posts with no splices or other connections except a 25A fuse connecting the positive line directly to the +Battery terminal. Avoid, as much as possible, using chassis (aluminum or iron engine parts) as return conductor for battery negative voltage;...
VDC when the engine shuts down due to an Over-crank failure. Over-speed output provides 300mA maximum. Over-speed output closes to +12/24 VDC on an Over-speed failure and is open otherwise. Flashing output indicates Loss of Speed Signal. Installation and User Manual for the ES53 Control Module...

Utility. After running unloaded for the duration of the TDEC period, the engine is then shut down. The ES53 uses the output of the generator as a speed signal; no magnetic pick-up is necessary. This greatly simplifies hook-up to a small generator system and provides AC frequency sensing on the generator source.

ON position or UP, for a 60Hz system. The switch should be in the OFF position, or DOWN for a 50Hz system. DIP SWITCH 5: This switch should be left in the OFF position or DOWN for the ES53. Switch 5 configures proper filtering for AC generator sensing.
During this latched state, should the utility return, the transfer switch will immediately switch back to the utility source to maintain power as soon as possible to the loads. Installation and User Manual for the ES53 Control Module...
