** Propane is in gal/h / L/h (LP) / ft
*** Values given are approximate
These are approximate values. Use the appropriate spec sheet or fuel data decal for specific values.
Verify gas meter is capable of providing enough fuel flow to include household appliances and all other loads.
NOTE: The fuel supply and pipe MUST be sized at 100% load BTU/h (Megajoule/h) rating.
Always see fuel data label for the correct BTU/h or Megajoule/h, and required fuel pressures:
– Natural Gas:
BTU/h = ft
Megajoules/h = m
– Liquid Propane Vapor:
BTU/h = ft
Megajoules/h = m
Fuel Line Sizing
Selecting the correct size fuel line is crucial to correct
operation of the unit.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Generator inlet size DOES NOT
dictate size of gas pipe to be used!
For further information, see NFPA 54 for NG, or NFPA 58
or ICC IFGC.
Measure distance from generator to fuel source on a low
pressure gas system.
IMPORTANT NOTE: PWRgenerator must be the first
gas appliance plumbed directly off the point of deliv-
ery of the low pressure system. PWRgenerator can-
not be plumbed off of the end of a low pressure gas
piping system.
