SGW-250SS — INSTRUMENTATION

CAUTION :

When using a combination of dual receptacles, total load should not exceed the rated capacity of the generating set.

Power Outlets

The generator has the following 60 Hz, 120/240 volt single- phase receptacles.

zSingle Phase

One Duplex NEMA (GFCI) 5-20R (120V, 20 Amp) One Twist Lock NEMA L5-30R (120V, 25 Amp)

One Twist Lock NEMA L14-30R (120/240V, 25 Amp)

Main Circuit Breaker (2-Pole)

This 2-pole 25 amp breaker protects the generator from short circuiting or overloading from the 60 Hz single phase load.

GFCI Protection Breaker (Single-Pole)

This Single-pole 25 amp breaker protects the GFCI receptacle from short circuiting or overloading from the 60 Hz single phase load.

Idle Control Switch

The unit is provided with an automatic idle control for noise suppression and fuel cost reduction. The automatic idle control automatically engages under a no-load condition.

With the automatic idle control switched “ON”, the engine revolutions will automatically drop to about 2100 rpm (low- speed operation) within 7 seconds after the welding stops. When welding is resumed, the engine speed is automatically increased to about 3600 rpm (high-speed operation) as soon as the electrode contacts the base metal

This provides for smooth welding operation. With AC loads of more than 100W (such as lighting equipment, motor- powered tools, submersible water pumps, etc.), the engine runs at high speed. When a no load condition is produced, the engine automatically shows down.

Turn the idle control switch to the “ON” (up) position when the welder or AC loads of more than 100W is connected. Turn the idle control switch to the “OFF” (down) position when AC loads of less than 100W or when a magnetic switch is used.

Fuel Gauge

The fuel gauge is located on the fuel tank and allows easy monitoring of the fuel level.

GFCI Receptacle

Before connecting a load to the generator's GFCI receptacle, push the "Test Button" on the front of receptacle before connecting the load, to confirm that the receptacle is functioning correctly.
