The Cat® CTG Series Automatic Transfer Switches (ATS) are pre-configured for applications requiring the dependability and ease of operation found in a full feature power contactor type transfer switch. CTG switches are equipped with the next generation MX150 microprocessor panel, which controls the operation and displays the status of the transfer switch's position, timers and available sources. As an embedded digital controller, the MX150 offers high reliability and ease of unattended operation across a range of applications.

Design and Construction Features
Close differential 3 phase under-voltage sensing of the normal source - factory standard setting 90% pickup, 80% dropout (adjustable);under frequency sensing of the normal source factory setting 95% pickup (adjustable)
Voltage and frequency sensing of the emergency source - factory standard setting 90% pickup voltage, 95% pickup frequency (adjustable)
Test switch (fast test/load/no load) to simulate normal source failure - automatically bypassed should the emergency source fail
Type 1 enclosure is standard - also available in open style or Types 3R, 4, 4X, or 12
Auxiliary Contact: Closed when the switch is in the normal position (Additional contacts optional)
Time Delay to Engine Start: Standard setting 3 seconds, adjustable 0-10 seconds
Peak Shave/Remote Load Test: Input for peak shave or remote load test; includes automatic return to normal if emergency source fails and normal is present; 120 VAC
Indicating LED Pilot Lights: -Switch in emergency position -Switch in normal position - Normal source available -Emergency source available
When specified for use with a CTGD Series delayed transition switch, the control panel also includes the following:
Event Log OD 16 Event that track date, time, reason and action taken
Time Delay on Retransfer to Normal: To delay retransfer to normal source (immediate retransfer on generator set failure); standard setting 30 minutes, adjustable 0-60 minutes
