DIAGNOSTIC TESTS

BRUSHES

Figure 6-21. – Brush Location

2.Remove Wire 4 from the positive (+) brush terminal.

3.Remove the ground wire (0) from the negative (-) brush.

4.Remove the brush holder, with brushes.

5.Inspect the brushes for excessive wear, damage, cracks, chip- ping, etc.

6.Inspect the brush holder, replace if damaged.

7.Inspect the slip rings.

a.If slip rings appear dull or tarnished they may be cleaned and polished with fine sandpaper. DO NOT USE ANY METALLIC GRIT TO CLEAN SLIP RINGS. (A 400 grit wet sandpaper is rec- ommended).

b.After cleaning slip rings, blow away any sandpa- per residue.

RESULTS:

1.Replace bad brushes. Clean slip rings, if necessary.

2.If brushes and rings are good, go to Test 14.

Test 14 - Check Rotor Assembly

PROCEDURE:

Gain access to the brushes and slip rings. Disconnect Wire 4 and Wire 0 from their respective brushes and remove the brush holder. Then, test the Rotor as fol- lows:

1.Set a voltmeter to measure resistance.

2.Connect the positive (+) meter test lead to the positive (+) slip ring (nearest the Rotor bearing). Connect the common (-) test lead to the negative (-) slip ring. Read the resistance of the Rotor windings, in OHMS.

*Resistance values in ohms at 20° C. (68° F.). Actual readings may vary depending on ambient temperature. A tolerance of plus or minus 5% is allowed.

3.Connect the positive (+) meter test lead to the positive (+) slip ring, the common (-) test lead to a clean frame ground (such as the Rotor shaft). The meter should read INFINITY.

RESULTS:

1.Replace the Rotor if it fails the test.

2.If Rotor checks good, perform “Rotor Insulation Resistance Test,” on Page 15.

Test 15 - Check Load Voltage &

Frequency

PROCEDURE:

Perform this test in the same manner as Test 1, but apply a load to the generator equal to its rated capac- ity. With load applied check voltage and frequency.

Frequency should not drop below about 59 Hertz with the load applied.

Voltage should not drop below about 235 VAC with load applied.

RESULTS:

1.If voltage and/or frequency drop excessively when the load is applied, go to Test 16.

2.If load voltage and frequency are within limits, end tests.

Test 16 - Check Load Watts & Amperage

PROCEDURE:

Add up the wattages or amperages of all loads pow- ered by the generator at one time. If desired, a clamp- on ammeter may be used to measure current flow. See “Measuring Current” on Page 7.

RESULTS:

1. If the unit is overloaded, reduce the load.

5308, 4583, 4451 & 4986, 4582 & 4987 specifications

Guardian Technologies has carved a niche in the market with its innovative air purification and UV-C sanitization products. The company's model numbers, including 4582, 4987, 4451, 4986, 4583, and 5308, represent a diverse range of solutions designed to enhance indoor air quality and safety in both residential and commercial settings.

The Guardian Technologies 4582 is equipped with a true HEPA filter that captures 99.97% of dust, pollen, smoke, and other particles as small as 0.3 microns. This model features a smart sensor that adjusts the fan speed according to the air quality in real-time. The UV-C light technology integrated into this device works to eliminate viruses and bacteria, providing an additional layer of protection against airborne pathogens.

The 4987 model follows suit with similar advanced features but adds a sleek design ideal for modern interiors. With multiple speed settings and a night mode, the 4987 is perfect for bedrooms or quiet spaces. Its energy-efficient operation coupled with an indicator that signals filter replacement ensures that users maintain optimal performance effortlessly.

The Guardian Technologies 4451 and 4986 models are particularly notable for their enhanced capacity and filtration efficiency. Both units incorporate a three-in-one filtration system that includes a pre-filter, activated charcoal filter, and HEPA filter. With their strategic design, these models not only purify the air but also trap common household odors, making them a popular choice for families with pets.

The 4583 model stands out with a unique combination of design and functionality. It features a low-profile design, making it easy to fit into any space. Its UV-C light technology not only disinfects air but can also sanitize surfaces, bridging the gap between air purification and direct sanitation.

Finally, the Guardian Technologies 5308 caters to larger spaces, offering impressive air circulation and filtration capabilities. Equipped with a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter and a powerful fan, it effectively cleans larger areas while maintaining whisper-quiet operation.

In summary, Guardian Technologies’ products exemplify a commitment to improving air quality and promoting health through innovative technology. With features like HEPA filtration, UV-C sanitization, smart sensors, and sleek designs, consumers can choose from a range of models that best fit their needs, ensuring cleaner, safer indoor environments.
