Connecting the Generator Cooling System with the Vehicle Cooling System can bring the
following advantages:
1. Pre-warming of the vehicle motor in winter (The generator can also be automatically started
via a time switch).
2. Exploitation of the generator heat for vehicle heating systems (i.e. buses, conference vehicles,
promotion vehicles etc.).
3. Otherwise saves the required space and the cost for an additional generator radiator.
We must, however, point out that connection of the vehicle cooling system to the motor cooling
system requires a relative amount of experience of vehicle cooling systems. Various require-
ments must be considered. For example, it must be considered that the system acts as a
"Bypass" when opening the cooling system thermostat. In some cases heating systems are con-
nected to the system, which can then also operate as a "Bypass".
No liability is assumed, when a recommendation is made by the generator manufacturer to con-
nect the generator to the motor cooling system. The person making the installation must also
ensure in this case that all conditions of this type are considered.
It should also be considered that the vehicle thermostat or the thermo switch must be adjusted to
the starting point for the radiator fan. In certain circumstances it is also essential to use additional
thermostats for switching on the fan, which are installed in the generator’s coolant pipes.
Fischer Panda can accept no liability if the cooling system does not function correctly.
Chassis construction companies and companies manufacturing vehicle assemblies should be
aware that there could be problems with the motor or vehicle manufacturer regarding the gua-
ranty, if consequential damage occurs to the motor because of coolant pipe leaks. Fischer Panda
will not accept any liability, if further units (i.e. vehicle motor) are damaged, when a part of the
generator cooling system itself breaks down.
