1. Introduction
1.1 Symbols for hazard statements
DANGER!
This shows dangerous situations.
If the guidelines are not followed, these situations will result in death, serious personal injury, and equipment damage or
destruction.
WARNING
This shows potentially dangerous situations.
If the guidelines are not followed, these situations could result in death, serious personal injury, and equipment damage
or destruction.
CAUTION
This shows low level risk situation.
If the guidelines are not followed, these situations could result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE
This shows an important notice
Make sure to read this information.
1.2 About the operator's manual
This document gives the necessary information to operate the controller.
CAUTION
Installation errors
Read this document before working with the AGC 150 controller. Failure to do this may result in human injury or damage
to the equipment.
Intended users of the operator's manual
The operator's manual is for the operator that uses the controller regularly.
The manual describes the LEDs, buttons and screens on the controller, alarm handling, and the logs menu.
OPERATOR'S MANUAL 4189341314A EN Page 3 of 19

1.3 Warnings and safety
Factory settings
The controller is delivered pre-programmed from the factory with a set of default settings. These settings are based on typical values
and may not be correct for your system. You must therefore check all parameters before using the controller.
Data security
To minimise the risk of data security breaches:
• As far as possible, avoid exposing controllers and controller networks to public networks and the Internet.
• Use additional security layers like a VPN for remote access, and install firewall mechanisms.
• Restrict access to authorised persons.
1.4 Legal information
Third party equipment
DEIF takes no responsibility for the installation or operation of any third party equipment, including the genset. Contact the genset
company if you have any doubt about how to install or operate the genset.
Warranty
NOTICE
Warranty
The controller is not to be opened by unauthorised personnel. If opened anyway, the warranty will be lost.
