Product Sheet

DCG Series DC Generator Sets Mechron’s DCG line of generator

sets is designed for use in DC

prime, standby and hybrid-

renewable applications. DCG

generators ensure continuous

operation of your equipment,

providing automatic start to

charge station batteries in the

event of utility or rectifier failure

or low station batteries. DCG

generators feature advanced

microprocessor controls and

available remote monitoring and control capability. DCG Series

Generator Sets are available with weather-resistant enclosures for

outdoor installation.

Benefits:

• Simple, redundant battery backup designed for ease of installation

and maintenance

• DC output reduces costs and space requirements and increases

efficiency and reliability over AC solutions. The DC output

connects directly to the station battery, bypassing rectifiers; no

transfer switch is required

• Seamless integration with hybrid-renewable systems, including

solar, wind and Mechron’s Cycle Charge™ system

• Automatic operation based on defined conditions including loss of

AC utility power and low station battery voltage ensures

uninterrupted DC power availability

• Available in 4.5 or 7 kW, 24 or 48 VDC, positive or negative ground

• Available in diesel, natural gas and liquid propane gas versions

• Allows for smaller capacity station battery

• Configurable shutdowns and alarms via PC interface

• Remote monitoring, control and configuration via GC View software

or GC WebView web browser interface
