Description
The compact and powerful MGC2000 generator control system features a
unique, simple-to-install and setup design and enhanced operation.
The control method for the MGC2000 may be specified for using either the
AS3000 Autostart automatic controller or the 518APH electrically tripped
annunciator method.
The system is available in 2 basic configurations:
1. MGC2000 features mechanical gages:
- MGC2000-A
Automatic Control: with AS3000 Generator Controller.
- MGC2000-M
Manual Control: with 518APH annunciator control.
Both configurations include standard AC voltmeter, AC ammeter, and
frequency meter. Available for single phase, standard three phase, and three
phase re-configutable generators.
2. MGC2000E features electric gages:
- MGC2000E-A
Automatic Control: with AS3000 Generator Controller.
- MGC2000E-M
Manual Control: with 518APH annunciator control.
Both configurations include standard AC voltmeter, AC ammeter, and
frequency meter. Available for single phase, standard three phase, and three
phase re-configutable generators.

NOTE:
DC Voltage: 12 or 24 volt DC voltage must be specified.
Power supply:
• Continuous voltage range: 8-35 VDC
• Brown out voltage < 5 VDC for 2 secs (recovery to 8V)
• Blackout voltage: 0V for 50mS (from 10V, recovery to 5V)
• Overvoltage withstand: 50 VDC for 5 seconds (to SAEJ1810 load dump
immunity
• Reverse voltage withstand: 100 VDC continuous
Current consumption (standby): 50mA
Current consumption (max): 500mA (plus output loads)
DC Inputs:
• Pressure, coolant temperature
• Closed to negative DC (±3V) on fault auxiliary and charger faults
• Remote start positive open from positive DC to start
• Remote start negative close to negative DC (±3V) to start DC (±3V) to
activate DC input protection ±50 VDC max.
