1~1.5 m of distance from the generator set and
1.5~2m above the generator set.
◆The generator set working room shall be furnished
with fire extinguish hydrant which conform to the
specified standard.
◆Emergency lighting facilities shall be installed in the
generator set working room for the convenience of
operation and maintenance.
◆No combustible and explosive materials are allowed
to be placed in the generator set working room.
Below is the layout for the open system generator set
working room.
(Foundation drawing Refer to APPENDIX B )
Note:
Our company can make drawings and design
installation dimensions for generator set working
room according to customer's special requirements.
Below is the layout for the canopy system generator
set working room.
(Foundation drawing Refer to APPENDIX C )
Note:
Canopied generator set can work outdoor directly. If
users wants to operate the generator set indoor,
above diagram can be taken as reference. we can
design the layout of generator set working room and
installation dimension according to customer's special
requirements.

Installation of Generator Set
2.5.1
Locate the position of generator set
Vibration reduction units have been installed on our
generator sets (except a few generator sets don't
have this kind of facility). Users can take reference on
the installation diagram, correctly install the
generator set on a flat and hard foundation, use the
expansion bolts to tightly fix the generator set to the
concrete foundation through the installation holes on
the base frame. When no special requirement is
needed, we don't suggest customers to install
additional vibration reduction units.
Soft connection is needed to connect the parts of the
generator set to outside. For example: corrugated
vibration reduction pipe has been used to connect
exhaust pipes, air exhaust path, fuel inlet pipe, fuel
return pipe and busbar cable etc., all of these parts
need to use soft connections. Only in this way we can
reduce the adverse effect caused by the vibration of
generator set to the minimum extent.
2.5.2
Ventilation
When a generator set with a complete set of radiator
assembly has been installed in the working room, the
basic principle is to discharge the hot air in the
working room to outside and let in the low
temperature air from outside, and try you best to
avoid the hot air come in from outside.
The diagram in the right side demonstrates the ideal
position of a generator set in the working room.
The purpose of this arrangement is to get cold air
from the lowest point as much as possible, and force
them to pass through the radiator core, and then lead
them out.
Users can use metal plate or canvas to make a wind
guide cover, the connection between wind guide
cover and the radiator shall be soft connection, so
that to cut off the transmission of vibration from the
generator set, and also ensure the hot air exhaust to
outside thoroughly.
The effective circulation sectional area inside of the
wind guide cover shall be bigger than 1.25 times of
the front face area of the radiator core. And the wind
guide cover shall be smooth, no sharp angle and
camber so that to reduce the resistance to the wind.
At the same time, the effective circulation sectional
area in the air inlet opening shall also be bigger than
1.25 times of the front face area of the radiator core.
When the users have installed mesh cover or shutters
in the air inlet /outlet opening or there is too many
cambers in the air inlet/outlet opening, the effective
air circulation sectional area will be reduced and
resistance will increase, and therefore, it's necessary
to further increase air circulation area.
