DCA-220SSVU — GENERATOR OUTPUTS

Generator OutputVoltages

A wide range of voltages are available to supply voltage for many different applications. Voltages are selected by apply- ing jumpers (6) to the voltage change-over board (Figure 15). To obtain some of the voltages as listed in Table 6 (see below) will require a fine adjustment using the voltage regu- lator (VR) control knob located on the control panel.

Voltage Change-Over Board

The voltage change-over board (Figure 15) is located on the control box, behind the generator control panel. This board has been provided for ease of voltage selection.

These calculations refelect the maximum amount of current the generator can provide at each output terminal pair. To obtain the total generator amperage multiply by 3.

Example 1: 488.6 amps @ 120V per output terminal pair X 3 =1,486 amps

Example 2: 244.3 amps @ 240V per output terminal pair X 3 =733 amps

CAUTION - CHANGINGVOLTAGES

NEVER attempt to place jumper plates on the voltage change-over board while the generator is in operation. There exist the possibility of electrocution, electrical shock or burn, which can cause severe bodily harm or even death!
