INSTALLATION INTERTEK GROUP PLC LABEL ID: 170800364HZH-001 Conforms to / Conforme à: NFPA 37 4.1.4 CL.
INSTALLATION SITE SELECTION, PREPARATION AND PLACEMENT These items are important to the overall performance of the HSB generator. Many items covered in this section are not optional and are requirements under Federal, State and Local codes. As with all generators, your generator must be installed in accordance with current NFPA-37, NFPA 54, NFPA 58 and NFPA-70 standards. Contact your local electrical inspector or city hall to insure you are aware of all codes and regulations.
INSTALLATION It is always recommended to prepare a drawing showing location of HSB, typical gas utility approach, circuit connections and full load connections. Similar considerations should be given to the location of the ATS (automatic transfer switch) in relationship to the HSB generator. The closer to both the fuel meter and the main utility panel the better. The key point here is, the closer to fuel meter is the suggested direction to go, wire is cheaper to run and more flexible.
INSTALLATION Once Site Selection, Preparation and Placement has been completed, you can proceed to Installation Preparation. Without these in place you may encounter problems moving forward. There are a number of key items that MUST be addressed prior to the physical installation of the HSB. The installation of the HSB must comply strictly with all applicable codes, standards and regulations (NFPA 37, NFPA 54, NFPA 58, and NFPA 70).
INSTALLATION 1. FUEL REQUIREMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The following NG and LPG fuel information is provided to assist the fuel installer. This information should not be deemed to be all inclusive or to conflict with local dry fuel codes. Consult your local fuel supplier or Fire Marshall for guidance on proper local codes and installations. Local codes will mandate correct routing of gaseous fuel line piping around gardens, shrubs and other landscaping to prevent any damage.
INSTALLATION 2. FUEL CONSUMPTION Fuel Type Air density is less at high altitudes, resulting in less available engine power. Engine power will decrease 3.5% for each 1,000 feet (300 m) above sea level and 1% for each 10 degrees F above 77 degrees F. Make sure these factors are considered when determining total HSB load. The gas supply and pipe MUST be sized at 100% load Btu rating.
INSTALLATION FLEXIBLE FUEL LINE A flexible fuel line (enclosed with the HSB) is to be installed between the stationary fuel supply line pipe and the fuel inlet pipe to the HSB. The purpose of the flexible fuel line is to ensure that vibration from the HSB does not cause a gas leak at one of the connection points. The flexible fuel line is not to be installed underground, in contact with any enclosure parts or contact with the ground.
INSTALLATION ! DANGER LPG is highly explosive. Even the slightest spark can ignite and cause an explosion, which could cause burns or fire resulting in serious injury, property damage or even death. No leakage is permitted. Safety is important. Gas pipe sizing is critical to the proper operation of the HSB. The HSB fuel inlet size has no bearing on the proper gas pipe size running to the HSB. Gas supply and pipe MUST be sized at 100% load Btu rating.
INSTALLATION 3. Install the LPG orifices (jets) in the mixing valve clockwise. Tighten the low speed orifice (jet) to 15.9 – 22.1 lb.-in. (1.8 – 2.5 N m). The main orifice (jet) to 10.6 – 13.2 lb.in. (1.2 – 1.5 Nm). 4. Re-install the fuel delivery hose and tighten the clap securely. Check the connection for fuel leaks after installing fuel supply. 5. LPG jet markings on face of jet; LPG main jet L41, LPG idle jet L0 2. Remove fuel inlet chamber screws (3).
INSTALLATION 5. 6. Install fuel inlet chamber to mixer body. Tighten fuel inlet chamber screws (3). Screw Tightening Torque: 26.0 lb.-in (2.94Nm). Remove fuel inlet chamber screws (3). Remove fuel inlet chamber (4) along with fuel hose (5) and gasket (6). 3. Remove left side main jet (7), right side main jet (8), left side slow jet (9) and right side slow jet (10). Recommend tool for removing main jet: Special Tool (Part number 100908).
INSTALLATION 5. Install fuel inlet chamber to mixer body. Tighten fuel inlet chamber screws (3). Screw Tightening Torque: 26.0 lb.-in (2.94Nm). 6. Connect breather tube (1) to breather port and put clamp (2) on breather tube. 7. SEDIMENT TRAP A sediment trap should be installed into the fuel supply line pipe when using either NG or LPG to drain any condensation.
INSTALLATION Battery Council International (BCI) is an association of battery industry companies whose members establish policy and standards for the industry. Battery Size is the physical dimensions of a battery. BCI assigns letters and numbers for North American battery size types. Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) is a rating that is used to define the batteries ability to start an engine under low-temperature conditions.
