4. When full load has been achieved. Connect a frequency meter to the output lugs of the generator’s main line circuit breaker.

5. The fuel regulator is fitted with one (7 kW), or two (12 & 15 kW) adjustment screws. While watching the frequency meter, slowly turn the adjustment screws clockwise or counterclockwise one at a time until the highest frequency is read on the meter. Only limited adjustment is available because of the set pin. Under no circumstances should any of the pins be removed (Figures 1.1 and 1.2).

7.Turn utility power to the main distribution panel back on. This can be done by switching the service main breaker to the on or closed position. Allow the generator to shut down.

Do not make any unnecessary adjustments.

!Factory settings are correct for most applications. However, when making adjustments, be careful to avoid overspeeding the engine.

1.7RECONFIGURING THE FUEL SYSTEM

1.7.1 7 KW, 410CC ENGINE

To reconfigure the fuel system from NG to LP, follow these steps (Figure 1.3):

NOTE:

The primary regulator for the propane supply is NOT INCLUDED with the generator. A fuel pressure of 11 to 14 inches of water column (0.4 to 0.5 psi) to the fuel inlet of the generator MUST BE SUPPLIED.

1.Turn off the main gas supply (if connected).

2.Open the top and remove the front panel.

3.Remove the battery (if installed).

4.Disconnect wire #0 and wire #14 from the gas solenoid on top of the demand regulator.

5.Remove the carburetor fuel hose from the outlet port of the demand regulator.

6.Remove the demand regulator by removing the fastener that retains the regulator mounting bracket.

7.Remove the square headed steel pipe plug from outlet port #1 and the brass hose barb fitting from outlet port #2.

8.Refit the brass hose barb fitting to outlet port #1 and the square headed steel pipe plug to outlet port #2.

ASPAS1CCA012, ASPAS1CCA015 specifications

The Carrier ASPAS1CCA015 and ASPAS1CCA012 are advanced air conditioning units designed to offer superior climate control in residential and light commercial settings. Both models reflect Carrier's commitment to innovation, energy efficiency, and user comfort.

One of the primary features of these units is their inverter technology. This smart technology adjusts the compressor speed in real-time, allowing the system to operate efficiently and maintain a consistent temperature. This results in reduced energy consumption and lower utility bills while providing a more comfortable indoor environment.

The ASPAS1CCA015 and ASPAS1CCA012 also include a state-of-the-art air filtration system. These units are equipped with a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter that effectively captures dust, allergens, and pollutants. This feature contributes to improved indoor air quality, making them ideal for allergy sufferers and those concerned about indoor air pollution.

In terms of performance, both models deliver impressive cooling and heating capacities. The ASPAS1CCA015 has a cooling capacity of 15,000 BTUs, while the ASPAS1CCA012 offers a cooling capacity of 12,000 BTUs. This range makes them suitable for various room sizes, ensuring effective temperature management whether during scorching summers or chilly winters.

A user-friendly digital thermostat and Wi-Fi connectivity are additional features that enhance the usability of these models. Homeowners can control their air conditioning systems remotely via smartphones or tablets, enabling them to adjust settings for optimum comfort and efficiency even when they are not at home.

The units are designed with quiet operation in mind. They utilize advanced silencing technologies, ensuring that noise levels remain low, allowing for peaceful environments during night-time or in quiet settings. This is particularly beneficial for bedrooms, nurseries, or offices where distraction-free air conditioning is essential.

Moreover, both models are compliant with the latest standards for energy efficiency, earning high SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) ratings. This not only promotes environmental sustainability but also aligns with governmental incentives aimed at reducing energy consumption.

In summary, the Carrier ASPAS1CCA015 and ASPAS1CCA012 are equipped with cutting-edge technologies and features that make them reliable and efficient air conditioning solutions. With their inverter technology, advanced filtration systems, remote connectivity, and quiet operation, these units represent a combination of comfort, convenience, and environmental responsibility that meets the needs of modern users.
