AUTOMATIC TRANSFER SWITCH CONTROL

Two Methods for Automatic Transfer Switch Control

ATS Control receives a signal from an ATS and starts the

engine

DGC-2020 can replace an ATS by monitoring the mains and

when the mains fail, the 2020 will send a signal to open a mains
breaker and close the gen breaker if you have motorized
breakers you can also replace the ATS.

panel you must:

Daisy-Chain Annunciators together

Remove the R65 resistor on all but

the last Annunciator in the line

WHY THE DGC-2020?

What the DGC-2020 offers?

DGC-2020 Control Panel can be used on any engine generator
combination we manufacture or have manufactured.

Three expansion modules and Three different levels of Control Panels.

Consistent from model to model so operators see the same panel,

service techs see the same basic panel and assemblers see similar
wiring from unit to unit.
