Environmental conditions ATTENTION ATTENTION ! Open gensets (SKID) have to be located in an area protected from rain, snow, high humidity and direct exposure to the sun. Rain or high humidity on GE genset alternator, in particular during operation, cause an increase in voltage output, winding faults, electric discharge towards ground, with damage to the genset and injury to persons. Dust, in particular saline dust, must be avoided.
Fixed outdoor installation If a shelter is used to protect the genset (see figure), it should NOT be attached to it. Even if a shelter is temporary the below indications should be followed: Safe distance ! A safe distance has to be kept between genset and fuel deposits, inflammable goods (cloths, paper, etc.), chemicals, according to indications provided by the authority in charge.
Floor should be levelled and suitable to sustain genset weight. Thresholds on doors and openings should have a barrier in order to avoid liquids leaking. In case it is not possible to provide a door with a barrier, the genset should have a collection base appropriate for the quantity of liquid it contains, in any case dimensions of collection base must be in accordance to the laws in force in country of installation. Sample of outdoor installation with shelter H=ALTEZZA G.E. H=HEIGTH G.S. H=HAUTEUR G.E.
Electro ventilator capacity can be calculated as follows: Fan Capacity [m3/h]= Transmitted heat [Kcal/h] 0,287 x ∆t [°C] Considering: ENGLISH • heat to radiation is indicated on engine/alternator technical data sheet; • 0. 287 is specific heat for each m3 of air at 20°C; • Δt in °C is usually considered as equal to 5 °C (worst conditions are considered).
LUBRICANT RECOMMENDED OIL The manufacturer recommends selecting AGIP engine oil. Refer to the label on the motor for the recommended products. Please refer to the motor operating manual for the recommended viscosity. REFUELLING AND CONTROL: Carry out refuelling and controls with motor at level position. 1. Remove the oil-fill tap (24) 2. Pour oil and replace the tap 3. Check the oil level using the dipstick (23); the oil level must be comprised between the minimum and maximum indicators.
The protection against electric shock from contact indirect is ensured by the “electrical separation” with equipotential bonding between all the exposed conductive parts of the generating set. Machines equipped with insulation resistance monitor allow intentionally not to connect the ground terminal PE (12) to an earthing system. Located on the front of the machine the insulation resistance monitor has the function of continuously monitoring the ground insulation of live parts.
