Mounting the Generator Set Positioning of cast-in bolts can be problematic since even small errors in location can cause time consuming redrilling of the skid base. Some generator set designs allow use of concrete anchor bolts. Mount the generator set on a substantial and level base such as a concrete pad. A non-combustible material must be used for the pad.
4. Installation 2-2016 In all fuel system installations, cleanliness is extremely important. • Make every effort to prevent fuel contamination from: ◦ Moisture ◦ Dirt ◦ Excess thread sealant ◦ Contaminants of any kind • Clean all fuel system components before installing. Gaseous-fuel supply system design, materials, components, fabrication, assembly, installation, testing, inspection, operation, and maintenance must comply with the applicable codes. See NFPA Standards No. 37, 54, and 58.
2-2016 4. Installation Component Description Fuel Pipe Size The length of the fuel supply pipe from the gas service entrance to the generator set must be known to determine the correct fuel pipe size. Refer to the charts in the Fuel Line Selection appendix. Iron pipe must be a minimum of schedule 40 subject to the authority having jurisdiction. Flexible Fuel Line Protects the fuel system from vibration, expansion, and contraction. WARNING Fuel leaks can lead to explosive accumulations of gas.
4. Installation 2-2016 Use the total load requirement of the generator set to determine the size of the fuel supply pipe. Use the tables and charts in the Fuel Line Selection appendix to determine the correct pipe size. An older site might require upgrading and repair of the gas supply system. Schedule an upgrade or repair to minimize power and gas supply interruptions. Make sure the full load fuel supply pressure at the inlet to the generator fuel shutoff valves is set at 6 - 12 inch water column (1.
2-2016 4. Installation Component Description Secondary Regulator Located near the generator set, the secondary regulator reduces the higher line pressure to a working pressure of 6 - 12 inch water column (1.5 - 3.0 kPa). Higher pressure before the secondary regulator is necessary to ensure that there is enough fuel available at the secondary regulator for a fully loaded generator set. Fuel Line Connects to the fuel supply.
4. Installation 2-2016 WARNING Fuel leaks can lead to explosive accumulations of gas. Propane sinks in air and can accumulate inside housings, basements and other below-grade spaces. Prevent gas leaks and the accumulation of gaseous fuel in the event of a leak. Use clean, fresh HD-5 grade propane or equivalent product consisting of at least 90% propane. NOTICE NFPA Standard No. 58 requires all persons handling and operating propane to be trained in proper handling and operating procedures.
2-2016 4. Installation • Approximately 60% of the fuel (in gallons) filled in the tank can be effectively used. Therefore, a 500-gallon (1892-liter) tank results in 240gallon (908-liter) usable capacity. To assist in the proper installation of the propane tank, follow the guidelines below. • Consult your tank and propane supplier for assistance in all aspects of determining tank size, selection of components and installation requirements.
4. Installation 2-2016 2. Determine fuel requirements at full load. See the Model Specifications section to determine the fuel flow requirements. 3.
