Section 1 — General Information

Air-cooled Generators

•Install the generator as close as possible to the fuel supply, to reduce the length of piping.

•Install the generator as close as possible to the transfer switch. REMEMBER THAT LAWS OR CODES MAY REGULATE THE DISTANCE AND LOCATION.

•The genset must be installed on a level surface. The base frame must be level within two (2) inches all around.

•The generator is typically placed on pea gravel or crushed stone. Check local codes if a concrete slab is required. If a concrete base slab is required, all federal, state and local codes should be followed. Special attention should be given to the concrete base slab which should exceed the length and width of the generator by a minimum of six (6) inches (0.152 meters) on all sides.

Figure 1.9 – Generator Clearances

The engine exhaust fumes contain carbon mon- oxide, which can be DEADLY. This dangerous gas, if breathed in sufficient concentrations, can cause unconsciousness or even death. This exhaust system must be installed properly, in strict compliance with applicable codes and stan- dards. Following installation, do nothing that might render the system unsafe or in noncompli- ance with such codes and standards.

•Operate the generator outdoors ONLY.

•Keep exhaust gases from entering a confined area through windows, doors, ventilation or other openings (Figure 1.9).

‹1.10.2 TRANSFER SWITCH

1.10.2.1 7, 10, 13, and 16 kW Units (if equipped)

The transfer switch shipped with this generator is enclosed in a NEMA 1 enclosure. This type of enclo- sure is intended for indoor use only. Follow these rules:

10

•Install the transfer switch indoors on a firm, sturdy supporting structure.

•To prevent switch distortion, level the switch if necessary. This can be done by placing washers between the switch enclosure and mounting sur- face.

•Never install the switch where water or any corro- sive substance might drip onto the enclosure.

•Protect the switch at all times against excessive moisture, dust, dirt, lint, construction grit and corrosive vapors.

If the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch is not set to its OFF position, the generator can crank and start as soon as the battery cables are connected. If the utility power supply is not turned off, spark- ing can occur at the battery posts and cause an explosion.

1.11 BATTERY REQUIREMENTS

See the Specifications section for correct battery size and rating.

1.12 BATTERY INSTALLATION

Fill the battery with the proper electrolyte fluid if necessary and have the battery fully charged before installing it.

Before installing and connecting the battery, complete the following steps:

1.Set the generator's AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to OFF.

2.Turn off utility power supply to the transfer switch.

3.Remove the 15A fuse from the generator control panel.

Battery cables were factory connected at the genera- tor (Figure 1.10). Connect cables to battery posts as follows:

4.Connect the red battery cable (from starter con- tactor) to the battery post indicated by a positive, POS or (+).

5.Connect the black battery cable (from frame ground) to the battery post indicated by a nega- tive, NEG or (—).

NOTE:

Dielectric grease should be used on battery posts to aid in the prevention of corrosion.

NOTE:

Damage will result if battery connections are made in reverse.

Guardian Technologies has established itself as a leading provider of innovative air purification solutions, leveraging advanced technologies to create healthier indoor environments. Their product line, including models 005281, 005282, 005283, 005284, and 005280, demonstrates the company's commitment to quality, efficiency, and ease of use.

One of the outstanding features of these models is their incorporation of HEPA filtration technology. This type of filter is capable of trapping at least 99.97% of airborne particles that are 0.3 microns in diameter, which includes allergens such as pollen, dust mites, and pet dander. This ensures that users can breathe cleaner air, making these devices ideal for allergy sufferers or anyone looking to improve their indoor air quality.

In addition to HEPA filtration, Guardian Technologies' models utilize ultraviolet (UV-C) light technology. This feature targets and neutralizes airborne viruses and bacteria, further enhancing the effectiveness of the air purification process. The combination of HEPA filtration and UV-C technology makes these devices equipped to handle a wide range of indoor air quality concerns.

Another significant characteristic of these products is their energy efficiency. Designed to operate quietly and with low power consumption, these air purifiers are not only effective but also environmentally friendly. Users can enjoy clean air without worrying about their energy bills or the environmental impact.

Furthermore, the user-friendly design of these models is notable. Many units come with intuitive controls, multiple fan speeds, and filter replacement indicators, making it easy for users to maintain optimal performance. Some models may also feature smart capabilities, allowing users to monitor air quality levels and control the device remotely via a smartphone app.

Durability is another hallmark of Guardian Technologies. Their products are built to last, using high-quality materials and components that ensure long-term reliability. This commitment to longevity adds value to the investment, as users can expect years of effective air purification.

In conclusion, Guardian Technologies' models 005281, 005282, 005283, 005284, and 005280 embody innovative features and technologies that cater to diverse air quality needs. From advanced filtration systems to energy-efficient designs, these purifiers not only enhance indoor air quality but also promote a healthier living environment for all users.
