2.1.2 Power generator
CAUTION !
Read carefully the generator’s manual
before use. It contains warnings concerning your own
safety while operating and doing maintenance.
Any maintenance work on mechanical or electrical parts
of the generator should be done by skilled workers,
using appropriate tools and protections.
The power generator can be started from two control knobs : one in the galley and one on
the control panel on the generator itself.
The generator is located in the engine room portside. It uses diesel fuel.
The diesel fuel comes from the RACOR prefilter / water strainer, enters the electric priming
pump and the engine's filter, and then feeds the injection pump. The overflow returns straight
to the fuel tank. To bleed the fuel circuit on the generator, refer to generator owner's manual.
It is important to start the generator without load, meaning every 220V equipment is
switched off. Check the seacock for seawater intake (see 2.4.2). Check also for water
discharge from the hull exhaust outlet when the generator is running. outlet.
Once the generator has been running for more than 1 hour at heavy load, before
stopping it, let it run 1 minute without load to let it cool down.
There are several circuit breakers and fault breakers on the generator control panel in the
engine room. Refer to generator's manual.
The seawater cooling circuit is fitted with an anti-siphon system to prevent seawater from
returning into the engine.
