  • Page 14: Room Location

    Room Location Often a separate building located on the site away from the main building is the most simple and cost effective. Major considerations when housing the genset in a separate building are: Maintain the building at a satisfactory temperature year round (to meet applicable codes).
  • Page 15: Foundation Design

    Foundation Design WARNING: An open bottom stationary engine generator set must be installed over noncombustible materials and shall be located such that it prevents combustible materials from accumulating under the generator set. Foundation Checklist A. Evaluate if a separate, isolated foundation is required for the application. B.
  • Page 16 Steel spring isolators are a very effective and commonly used. Steel spring isolators are typically 95-98% efficient (reduces the transmitted vibration 95-98%) while a pad type can be 75-88% efficient. Spring isolators also level the genset sub-base in the event the foundation pad is not perfectly level. Spring steel isolators offer the highest level of vibration isolation, however higher levels of vibration (although not detrimental) may be seen on some areas of the genset when mounted on steel springs, due to the (almost) total isolation from the foundation.
  • Page 17 Designing An Isolated Foundation If the genset cannot be mounted directly on a floor slab, or if it is desirable to isolate it from the floor slab, then a separate foundation slab must be designed. A massive concrete foundation is not required. Outside dimensions of the foundation should exceed the outside genset dimensions by 12in (300mm).
