Multiquip DCA180SSK manual Frequency Meter Hz

DCA-180SSK — GENERATOR START-UP PROCEDURE (MANUAL)

11.The generator's frequency meter (Figure 43) displays the 60 cycle output frequency in HERTZ.

14.The engine oil pressure gauge (Figure 47) will indicate the oil pressure (kg/ cm2) of the engine. Under normal operating conditions the oil pressure should be approximately 25 psi.
