    Installation Instructions D.5.2 Exhaust / Water separator In order to reduce the noise level of the generator unit to a minimum, an optional exhaust outlet muffler can be mounted next to the thru-hull fitting. Additionally there is a component at Fischer Panda, which acts as both an "exhaust goose neck", and water separator.

  • Page 91: Installation Exhaust-Water-Separator

    Installation Instructions D.5.3 Installation Exhaust-Water-Separator If the exhaust/water separator was sufficiently highly installed, a goose neck is no longer neces- sary. The exhaust/water separator fulfils the same function. If the "Super silent" exhaust system were installed correctly, the generator will not disturb your boat neighbour. The exhaust noise should be nearly inaudible.

    Installation Instructions D.6.3 Connection of the Fuel Lines at the Tank Lead the return fuel pipe connected to the day tank to the floor The return pipe connected to the tank must be dropped to the same depth as the suction pipe, if the generator is mounted higher than the tank, in order to prevent fuel running back into the tank after the motor has been switched off, which can lead to enormous problems, if the generator is switched off for a long period.

  • Page 95: Ventilating Air From The Fuel System

    Installation Instructions D.6.5 Ventilating Air from the Fuel System Normally, the fuel system is designed to vent air itself i.e. as soon as the electric starter motor starts; the fuel pump starts working and the fuel system will be air-vent automatically after some time.

  • Page 96: Generator 12 V Dc System Installation

    Installation Instructions D.7 Generator 12 V DC System Installation The Panda generators from 8.000 NE upwards have their own dynamo to charge a 12 V starter battery. It is recommended to install an additional starter battery for the generator. The generator is then independent from the remaining battery set. This enables you to start the genset at any time with its own starter battery even if the other batteries are discharged.

  • Page 97: Connection Of The Remote Control Panel - See Separate Control Panel Manual

    Installation Instructions The Panda generators 8000 to 30 are equipped with various DC-relays, which can be found under the terminal strip. The various relays have the following tasks (also see the DC circuit diagram) 1. Starter motor relay 2. Pre-glow relay (glow plugs) 3.

  • Page 100 Installation Instructions The cam-type switch must have 2 poles, so that "MP" and "phase" can be switched off. If a 3-phase current system is also installed with the option of supplying from either the generator or shore power, an additional switch must be installed to keep these systems separate. An alternative to a manual rotating switch is an automatic power relay.

    Installation Instructions D.8.3 AC Control Box with VCS and ASB The required capacitors for the excitation of the generator are located in the AC-Control box, as well as the electronic control for voltage/speed regulation (VCS) and the starting current re- inforcement (ASB).

  • Page 102: Vcs Voltage Control

    Installation Instructions D.8.4 VCS Voltage Control All Panda generators from Panda 8000 upwards are fitted with the electronic voltage control "VCS" as standard. The VCS controls the generator voltage and motor speed. A actuator on the injection pump can increase the engine speed by up to 8%. If the generator is run without load, the voltage should be 231V with a frequency of approx 48.5 to 49Hz.
