Installation instructions

Safe distance

ATTENTION

A safe distance has to be kept between genset and

fuel deposits, inflammable goods (cloths, paper, etc.),

chemicals, according to indications provided by the

authority in charge. In order to avoid potentially dan-

gerous situations, area surrounding genset should be

isolated so that unauthorized people will not be able

to get close to the unit. Even if MOSA gensets are ma-

nufactured according to electromagnetic compatibility

norms, we suggest NOT to install the genset near ma-

chinery that can be influenced by magnetic fields.

Fixing

In order to absorb vibrations produced by genset, it

should be fixed to a surface with sufficient rigidity, isola-

ted against vibrations towards other structures and with

a mass equal to at least three times the genset mass.

DO NOT locate the genset on terraces or raised levels,

if its characteristics have not been previously verified as

suitable.



NOTE

When using a genset it is advisable to adopt pre-

cautions to avoid that fuel, lubricant and other en-

gine liquids may accidentally cause soil pollution.

The most recent generators are designed to retain

possible liquid leakages, hence no specific mea-

sures are needed in this regard.

In case of doubts concerning your genset do not

hesitate to contact our technical sales office.

Fixed outdoor installation

If a shelter is used to protect the genset (see figure), it

should NOT be attached to it.

Even if a shelter is temporary the below indications

should be followed:

Engine and alternator when in operation produce heat:

• Shelter should NOT obstruct normal cooling of com-

ponents;

• Exhaust gas should be directed in order to avoid the

possibility that alternator and engine fan inhale it;

• Shelter should be made of fireproof material, as em-

bers may come out of the exhaust pipe;

• Never cover or wrap up genset with plastic sheets or

other material while operating. If genset is off, make

sure engine has cooled before you cover it, or else

there may be risk of damage to the genset or may

catch fire.
