Section 5

ENGINE DC CONTROL SYSTEM

CIRCUIT CONDITION – SHUTDOWN:

Setting the START-STOP SWITCH (SW1) or the REMOTE PANEL START-STOP SWITCH to its “STOP” position connects the Wire 18 circuit to frame ground. Printed Circuit Board action then closes the circuit to Wire 18A, grounding the ignition magneto. PCB action de-energizes DC output to J1 plug to the FUEL PUMP (FP), FUEL SOLENOID (FS) and CHOKE HEATER (CH) are de-energized by the loss of DC to Wire 14. Ignition and fuel flow are terminated, and the engine shuts down.

CIRCUIT CONDITION – FAULT SHUTDOWN:

The engine mounts a HIGH OIL TEMPERATURE SWITCH (HTO) and a LOW OIL PRESSURE SWITCH (LOP).

Should engine oil temperature exceed a preset value, the switch con- tacts will close. Wire 85 from the Printed Circuit Board will connect to frame ground. PCB action will then initiate a shutdown and will cause the red led light on SW1 to flash 6 times then repeat.

Should engine oil pressure drop below a safe pre-set value, the LOP switch contacts will close. On contact closure, Wire 86 will be connect- ed to frame ground and PCB action will initiate an engine shutdown and will cause the red led light on SW1 to flash 5 times then repeat.

The PCB has a built-in time delay for the Wire 85 fault shutdown. At STARTUP ONLY the circuit board will wait approximately 6 seconds before looking at the Wire 85 fault shutdowns. Once running, after the 6 second time delay, grounding Wire 85 through either switch will cause an immediate shutdown.

5410, 5414, 5415, 5413, 5411 specifications

Generac Power Systems has established itself as a leading manufacturer of backup power solutions, particularly known for its range of generators designed for both residential and commercial use. Among their noteworthy products are the Generac models 5412, 5411, 5413, 5415, and 5414. Each of these generators showcases innovative technologies and features that enhance reliability, efficiency, and ease of use.

The Generac 5412 is a versatile model equipped with a robust 10 kW output, making it suitable for powering essential home appliances during outages. It operates using a 1.0 L engine that runs on natural gas or propane, providing flexibility in fuel options. The Quiet-Test feature is a notable characteristic, as it allows for a self-test at a reduced volume, minimizing noise disruptions during routine checks.

Moving to the Generac 5411, this generator offers a higher output capacity of 13 kW. It integrates advanced load management technology, which ensures that power is allocated efficiently among connected devices. This model also features a Mobile Link remote monitoring system, enabling users to check generator status and performance from anywhere via a smartphone app.

The Generac 5413 is tailored for larger residential needs, delivering an impressive 16 kW output. It boasts a durable all-weather aluminum enclosure designed for longevity against the elements. The 5413's integrated wifi connectivity allows for real-time monitoring and alerts, ensuring that homeowners are always informed of their generator's operating status.

For those seeking a balance of power and efficiency, the Generac 5415 offers 20 kW of output while maintaining a compact design. This model is enriched with the patented G-Flex technology, allowing it to adjust engine speed based on the load requirements, thereby conserving fuel and reducing noise levels. Additionally, the 5415 comes with an intuitive user interface for effortless operation and programming.

Finally, the Generac 5414 rounds out the lineup with its strong 24 kW capability. This model is particularly known for its Smart Management modules, which facilitate the safe and efficient distribution of power. Its intuitive design also includes a user-friendly control panel for straightforward operation, ensuring that homeowners, regardless of technical expertise, can utilize the system effectively.

In summary, Generac Power Systems’ 5412, 5411, 5413, 5415, and 5414 generators exemplify advanced power technology, tailored for reliability and user convenience. Whether for essential home functions or more extensive power needs, these models provide effective solutions to ensure that homes remain powered during outages.
