2.1 Introduction

2.1.1 Introduction
This chapter will deal with the unit in general and its place in the DEIF product range.
The CGC, short for Compact Genset Controller, is part of the DEIF Compact Genset Controller range, based
on standard advanced software of Multi-line 2. The concept of the CGC is to offer a cost-effective solution to
genset builders, who need a flexible generator protection and control unit for small single to medium and
large genset applications.

2.2 Type of product

The compact genset controller is a micro-processor based control unit containing all necessary functions for
protection and control of a genset.
It contains all necessary 3-phase measuring circuits, and all values and alarms are presented on the LCD
display.
The CGC 400 will come in two different variants: CGC 412 and CGC 413.
The CGC 412 is the unit that is able to perform auto start, and the CGC 413 is able to make the automatic
mains failure (AMF) sequences. The hardware for the two products is different, therefore some of the sequen-
ces described in this document are only relevant to one of the variants. You will find a detailed description of
