3 INSTALLATION

The generator m ay only be installed by qualified
technicians. Malfuncti oning due to im proper
installation may cause injury or death.
3.1 G
ENERA TOR HOUSING CHARACTERISTICS
- The generator must be installed in a sufficiently
ventilated room able to assure the small amount of air
required for engine combustion.
- The room must be acoustically separated and isolated
from the living quarters.
- The generator must be positioned in such a way as to
facilitate normal maintenance operations.
- It is advisable to install the generator in the
propulsion engine room provided that it meets the
above conditions.
- The air must be clean.
- The air temperature in the place of installation must be
between -5°C (23°F) and +40°C (104°F).
- The relative humidity must not exceed 50% at a
maximum temperature of +40°C (104°F). Relative
humidity of 90% at +20°C
(77°F) is permissible.
3.2 L
IFTING
To lift the generator place the hook in the hole (ref.1)
Always take these precautiona when lifting the
generator:
- Do not swing suspended loads.
- Never leave the load unattended.
- Lower the generator to the ground very slowly.
- Always maintain the safety distance.
All the lifting operations must be carried out by
personnel specialised in this type of work, such as
truck drivers, crane drivers, slingers.
The operator is considered responsible forusing the
correct machine slinging and lifting technique.
3.3 A
NCHORING THE GENERA TOR
For fixing the generator set predispose an adapted plinth
to sustain the weight and vibrations of the generator.
Proceed then to the perforation of the plinth following
the indications in (ref.2).
3.4 V
ENTILATION
The generator is equipped with an internal forced cooling
system through a water/air exchanger.
The amount of air required for combustion is
aspirated through the intake located on the base (ref.3):
Therefore, always check that this intake is
free of any obstruction.
