Unexpected power interruptions hamper everyday tasks, halt generator functioning, and jeopardise efficiency and safety. Selfguard's automatic generator start and stop units with Wireless Remote (GSU‑2W / WAC / GC‑3P(W)) provide rapid and dependable automation without operator intervention.
Auto Mode: Instant Backup, No Delay
In Auto mode, the generator starts automatically when the mains supply fails and stops automatically once the mains returns. This ensures seamless power backup exactly when needed, eliminating waiting time and potential operational losses.
Manual Mode: Remote Control Flexibility
When set to Manual mode, users can start or stop the generator remotely using the wireless remote:
- Press C (Start) to initiate generator operation
- Press D (Stop) to shut it down manually
But even in Manual mode, if mains power returns, the unit will stop the generator automatically—maintaining safety and consistency
Wireless Remote: Control Within 300 Feet
The wireless remote included with each unit operates from up to 300 feet away, allowing hassle‑free remote start, stop, and mode switching (Auto/Manual) via dedicated buttons (A, B, C, D).
