The Cascade controller offers automatic start and stop control with easy configuration for a broad number of applications.

This auto-start controller is designed to fit any engine-driven application requiring a simple and robust automatic start and stop sequence. Pumps, compressors, grinders, power units and generators are just a few of the industrial applications for the controller. The Cascade controller is fully compatible with all major engine types. Whether you are running mechanical or J1939 engines, the controller will work with your application. The Cascade CD101 controller can also be used to replace legacy ASM150, ASM160 and ASM170 controllers.
