Standby Generator Sets Engine Protective Devices

ENGINE PROTECTIVE DEVICES

The standby generator may be required to operate for long periods of time without an operator on hand to monitor such engine conditions as coolant tempera- ture, oil pressure or rpm. For that reason, the engine has several devices designed to protect it against potentially damaging conditions by automatically shutting down the unit when the oil pressure is too low, the coolant temperature is too high, the coolant level is too low, or the engine is running too fast.

NOTE:

Engine protective switches and sensors are men- tioned here for the reader’s convenience. Also refer to the applicable control panel manual for additional automatic engine shutdown informa- tion.

‹HIGH COOLANT TEMPERATURE SWITCH

This switches contacts close if the temperature should exceed approximately 140° C (284° F), initiating an engine shutdown. The generator will automatically restart and the LED will reset once the temperature has returned to a safe operating level.

‹LOW COOLANT LEVEL SENSOR

Should the engine coolant level drop below the level of the high coolant temperature switch, it is possible for the engine to overheat without automatic shut- down. To prevent such overheating, the engine has a low coolant level sensor. If the level of engine coolant drops below the level of the low coolant level sensor, the engine automatically shuts down.

‹OVERCRANK SHUTDOWN

After a prespecified duration of cranking, this func- tion ends the cranking if the engine has failed to start. The overcrank LED will turn ON. Turn OFF the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch, then turn switch back to AUTO to reset the generator control board.

NOTE:

If the fault is not corrected, the overcrank feature will continue to activate.

Approximate Crank Cycle Times

•15 seconds ON

•7 seconds OFF

•7 seconds ON

•7 seconds OFF

•Repeat for 45 seconds Approximately 90 seconds total.

‹OVERSPEED SHUTDOWN

A speed circuit controls engine cranking, start-up, operation and shutdown. Engine speed signals are delivered to the circuit board whenever the unit is running. Should the engine overspeed above a safe, preset value, the circuit board initiates an automatic engine shutdown. Contact the nearest Authorized Dealer if this failure occurs.

‹RPM SENSOR LOSS SHUTDOWN

If the speed signal to the control panel is lost, engine shutdown will occur.

‹LOW OIL PRESSURE SWITCH

This switch has normally closed contacts that are held open by engine oil pressure during cranking and operating. Should oil pressure drop below the 8 psi range, switch contacts close, and the engine shuts down. The unit should not be restarted until oil is added, and the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch must be turned to OFF and then back to AUTO.

‹DC FUSE

This fuse is located inside of the control panel. It protects the panel wiring and components from damaging overload. Always remove this fuse before commencing work on the generator. The unit will not start or crank if the fuse is blown. Replace the fuse with one of the same size, type, and rating. (See the exploded views and parts lists at the end of this manual for replacement part number.)

005336-1, 005337-1 specifications

Guardian Technologies has evolved as a leader in indoor air quality solutions with its innovative lineup of air purifiers, particularly the notable models 005336-1 and 005337-1. These devices are designed to tackle common air contaminants, enhancing the overall air quality in residential and commercial settings.

The model 005336-1 features a state-of-the-art 3-in-1 air purification system, integrating a pre-filter, activated charcoal filter, and a true HEPA filter. This powerful combination ensures the removal of a wide array of pollutants, including dust, pet dander, smoke, and even certain bacteria and viruses. The true HEPA filter captures 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns, making it an excellent choice for allergy sufferers and individuals sensitive to airborne particles.

On the other hand, the 005337-1 model advances air purification further with enhanced smart features. It is equipped with a built-in air quality sensor that monitors real-time air quality and adjusts the fan speed accordingly. This not only promotes energy efficiency but also ensures an optimal environment based on immediate air quality needs.

Both models incorporate Guardian Technologies’ unique UV-C light technology. This additional feature works to reduce airborne germs and bacteria, further improving the healthiness of the air you breathe. The UV-C technology, combined with the HEPA filtration system, provides a comprehensive approach to cleaning indoor air, making these models perfect for households with pets, children, or individuals with allergies.

Another standout characteristic of both air purifiers is their user-friendly design. They come equipped with adjustable fan speeds, a filter replacement indicator, and a quiet operation mode that makes them suitable for use in bedrooms or home offices. Moreover, their modern aesthetics fit seamlessly into various home decors, ensuring functionality without compromising style.

In summary, Guardian Technologies’ 005336-1 and 005337-1 air purifiers offer a sophisticated blend of effective air purification technology, user-friendly features, and smart capabilities. They represent a commitment to improving indoor air quality and promoting a healthier living environment for all. This combination of efficiency and innovation positions Guardian Technologies at the forefront of air purification solutions.
