Apex 1 to 5.5 kW Generator

Installation, Setup, and Operation

Chapter

5

This chapter guides you through the process of installing, setting up, and operating an Apex generator. It includes the following sections:

“Installing the Generator” on page 5-1

“First Time Operation” on page 5-12

“Normal Operation” on page 5-13

“Understanding and Setting Up Pulsing Output” on page 5-13

Because Apex generators are equipped with varying options, not all of the information in this chapter applies to every Apex generator. In places where the information is option-specific, configuration notes are used to identify the PIN position and option associated with the information. For information on using the Apex PIN to locate the information in this manual that is applicable to your unit, see “Using this Manual to Find Information for Your Generator” on page 1-1.

INSTALLING THE GENERATOR

The following sections provide information to help you install the Apex generator.

Unpacking

Unpack and inspect the generator carefully. Check for obvious physical damage. If no damage is apparent, proceed with the unit connections. If you do see signs of shipping damage, contact Advanced Energy Industries, Inc., and the carrier immediately. Save the shipping container for submitting necessary claims to the carrier.

Grounding

The unit provides two threaded grounding holes (one is a metric A-6, the other is a 5/16x 18 US). A suitable chassis ground connection made to either of these holes prevents or minimizes radio frequency interference.

Note: For more information about grounding, refer to AE Application Notes titled Grounding p/n 5600031A.
