4.7 Installation Procedure

CAUTION: In all cases, installation should be done by a qualified

mechanical or electrical personnel.

Do NOT attempt to operate the

turbine-generator assembly without a complete installation. Operating the

turbine-generator without a fully installed system can be DANGEROUS and

potentially DAMAGE the equipment.

4.7.1 Mounting the M300 Turbine-Generator
Mount the M300 turbine-generator assembly in a proper orientation as

described in the diagrams below.

Mounting Diagram

The turbine-generator assembly can be mounted on either a horizontal or

vertical surface. When mounted on a vertical surface the unit must be oriented

so that the generator is above the turbine to avoid water entering the generator

from leaking or condensation. The assembly must also be mounted correctly to

prevent air from being trapped inside the unit.

CAUTION: Failure to install the unit correctly could result in faulty operation

and/or damage to the unit.
