6.3 Engine Heating Operation
Especially on engines without a body heater, or with a failing one, it may be desired that the
genset should not take the load before reaching a suitable temperature. The unit offers 2 different
ways of engine heating.
1. Timer controlled heating:
This operation mode is selected when the
Engine Heating Method
parameter is set to
0
. In this
mode, the engine will run during parameter
Engine Heating Timer
, and then the genset will take the
load.
2. Timer and temperature controlled heating:
This operation mode is selected when the
Engine Heating Method
parameter is set to
1
. In this
mode, at first the engine will run during parameter
Engine Heating Timer
, then it will continue to run
until the measured coolant temperature reaches the limit defined in parameter
Engine Heating
Temperature
. When the requested temperature is reached, the load will be transferred to the genset.
This operation mode may be used as a backup to the engine body heater. If the engine body is warm
the heating will be skipped.
