Standby Generator Sets Equipment Description
EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
This equipment is a revolving field, alternating cur- rent generator set. It is powered by a gaseous fueled engine operating at 1800 rpm for
All AC connections, including the power leads from the alternator, 120 volt battery charger input and control connections to the transfer switch are avail- able in the main connection box.
The generator incorporates the following generator features:
•Rotor and Stator insulation is Class F rated as defined by NEMA
•The voltage waveform deviation, total harmonic content of the AC waveform and telephone influ- ence factor have been evaluated and are acceptable according to NEMA
ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS
The unit has been filled with
| Temperature | Oil Grade (Recommended) |
|
| Above 80° F (27° C) | SAE 30W or |
|
| 32° to 80° F (0° to 27° C) | SAE |
|
| Below 32° F (0° C) | See Note |
|
Any attempt to crank or start the engine before it has been properly serviced with the recom- mended oil may result in an engine failure.
NOTE:
COOLANT RECOMMENDATIONS
Use a mixture of half low silicate ethylene glycol base
Do not use any chromate base rust inhibitor with ethylene glycol base
DANGER
Do not remove the radiator pressure cap while the engine is hot or serious burns from boiling liquid or steam could result.
Ethylene glycol base antifreeze is poisonous. Do not use mouth to siphon coolant from the radiator, recovery bottle or any container. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Never store used antifreeze in an open container because animals are attracted to the smell and taste of antifreeze even though it is poisonous to them.
For temperatures below 32° F, it is strongly recom- mended to use the optional Cold Weather Start Kit (part number listed in the Specification Section). The oil grade for temperatures below 32° F is 5W- 30 synthetic oil.
