Unit Description General Description Thermo King generator sets (clip-on and under-mount) are self-contained fully-automatic, diesel powered units. The generator sets supply 230 or 460 Vac electrical power for container refrigeration units. Enclosed within the unit frame are the engine, dual voltage alternator, generator battery compartment, battery charging regulator and control panel.
U U n n i i t t D D e e s s c c r r i i p p t t i i o o n n EMI 3000 These units are equipped with an EMI 3000 Extended Maintenance Interval package. The EMI 3000 package will result in lower total unit life cycle cost, because maintenance intervals have an important impact on unit operating costs.

Alternator Operation and Diagnosis Megohmmeter The use of a megohmmeter can be a valuable addition to the repair and maintenance of the generator set. The megohmmeter is essentially a high-range resistance meter (ohmmeter) with a built-in direct-current generator. This meter is of special construction with both current and voltage coils-enabling true ohms to be read directly, independently of the actual voltage applied.

Structural/Accessory Maintenance Unit Inspection Inspect the unit during unit pre-trip inspection and scheduled maintenance intervals. Look for loose or broken wires or hardware, and other physical damage which might affect unit performance. Repair if required. N N o o t t e e : : See Maintenance Inspection Schedule chapter in this manual for the correct service interval for your unit. 250 or 500 hour inspection/service intervals are required in extreme operating conditions.
