Operation principle EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE The operation of the machine, for the generation of energy, develops through the following phases: This machine and its devices are made in standard version and can therefore not be installed and used in premises 1. The fuel arrives at the endothermic engine where, by means of the combustion process, it is transformed into where the concentration of dust may exceed acceptable limits and create potentially explosive atmospheres.

2.6 NOISE POWER EMISSION NOTE: The external anti-vibration supports already have holes for securing the machine to the boat. In addition, in order to attenuate the vibrations transmitted to the boat and consequently to reduce the sound level The Paguro generator has been designed and manufactured to significantly reduce the sound power level. In particular, further, it is recommended to install, under the machine, a wooden platform, which in turn should be installed on soft the machine adopts a soundproofing capsule to limit the emission of the noise generated by the internal endothermic anti-vibration supports.

4 Transport and handling 4.1 GENERAL NOTIONS The lifting, handling, transport of the machine must be assigned exclusively to operators skilled in those types of operations (slingers, crane operators, forklift operators, signallers). Operators must also be: - aware of the kind of loads that require lifting, the operations that need to be carried out and the procedures set forth in the User and Maintenance Manual.
4.2.2 Lifting and handling with forklift This type of handling is used to move the packed machine. WARNING! Always check where the forks rest under the box. To lift with a forklift, follow these steps: a) Insert the fork of the truck under the wooden box, taking care that they protrude from the opposite side. b) Lift the machine slightly and make sure that the load is in balance.
4.3 UNPACKING Once the machine has been unloaded from the means of transport, unpack it according to the following procedure: 1. Remove the optional cardboard box strapping (if equipped); 2. Remove the top cover of the wooden case using a hammer with a nail puller; 3.
5. Installation of the machine 4.5 STORAGE If there is a possibility that the machine will not be installed immediately, but has to be warehoused for a prolonged period of time, the storage must take place in a sheltered environment, with a degree of protection appropriate for the installed components.
5.4 EXTERNAL CONNECTIONS The location of the external connections is shown in the images below. The various connections must be made with suitable diameters (as indicated in Chap. 1 “TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS”) not only to avoid leaks and drips, but also to avoid unnecessary openings of the silencing capsule with If possible, position the machine away from any splashes of water and vapours.
5.5 EXHAUST SYSTEM INSTALLATION (on request) The VTE S.r.l. warranty does not cover errors and inaccuracies in the installation of the exhaust line. VTE S.r.l. recommends the installation of the exhaust line of the “in-line” mufflers. The machine is supplied as standard with an exhaust, combustion gas and sea water terminal, on which an overtemperature switch is installed.
5.5.3 On-board system with long exhaust line In the case of a very long exhaust pipe, it is recommended to use an exhaust system with a double anti-siphon muffler (see picture below). Due to the large amount of water in the exhaust line, the second anti-siphon muffler protects the machine from water return.
DIESEL SUPPLY AND RETURN DIAGRAM WITH MACHINE LEVEL IN RELATION TO TANK ≥ 70 CM (example) NOTE: The injection pump of the machine is a self-draining pump. This means that if the engine is shut down due to lack of fuel, after filling the tank, there is no need to purge the air manually, but it is sufficient to operate the lever of the pre-fuel pump.
5.7.1 Anti-siphon valve 5.7.2 Sea water inlet (on request) If the generator is installed below or near the waterline (refer to external anti-vibration dampers), an anti-siphon valve VTE S.r.l. recommends the “grid” type of sea inlet. must be installed between the cooling water supply and the water-cooled drain terminal. This inlet must be installed in the NON-DYNAMIC direction, i.e., façades of grids in the stern direction and round-off The anti-siphon valve prevents water from entering the engine through the water pump when the engine is installed side closed toward the bow, on the hull, under the waterline, considering all possible inclinations of the boat.
The electrical connection of the generator with the inverter requires: a. Plugging the multipolar connector of the inverter into the corresponding socket installed on the generator; Multipolar socket on-board the machine b. Inserting the three-phase cable into the inverter input socket (1); c.
5.8.4 Remote control connection The standard supply is a remote control panel with a 15 m cable, so that it can be used in any part of the boat provided it is protected from weather. The cable has a quick connector on both sides. To connect the remote control to the machine, insert the multipolar socket on the remote panel to the corresponding socket on the lower guard of the machine.
5.9 PRELIMINARY CHECKS 6 Installation errors After installation, and before commissioning the generator, a series of checks must be carried out in order to prevent errors and accidents: – Check that the machine has not been damaged during transport and installation; –...

WARNING! Repeated attempts to start without cranking result in water filling in the exhaust line, After the first 20 hours of operation of the machine, check the maintenance table (par. 10.2.7) for the resulting in engine damage. correct maintenance operations to be carried out. This is caused by the sea water pump which circulates the cooling water, but since the burned gases are not present, the water fills the exhaust line until it enters the engine.
