Safety Instructions
The electrical Installations may only be carried out be trained and
tested personnel!
The generator may not be taken into use with the cover removed.
The rotating parts (belt-pulley, belts, etc) must be so covered and protected do that there is no danger to life and
body!
If a sound insulation covering must be produced at the place of installation, then well-placed signs must show that
the generator can only be switched on with a closed capsule.
All servicing-, maintenance or repair work may only carried out, when the motor is not running.
Electrical voltages above 48 volts (battery chargers greater than 36 volts) are always dangerous to life). The rules of
the respective regional authority must be adhered to. Only an electrician may carry out installation of the electrical
connections for safety reasons.
Protective Conductor:
The generator is „earthed " as standard (The centre and earth are connected by means of a bridge in the generator
terminal box). This is a basic safety function, which offers basic safety as long as no other component has been
installed. It is, above all, conceived for supply and an eventual test run.
This "earth" (PEN) is only effective, if all parts of the electrical system is earthed, and has a common “potential”. The
bridges can be removed, if this is required for technical reasons and another protection system has been installed.
The full voltage is exploited at the AC-control box, when the generator is run. It must therefore be ensured
that the control box is closed and cannot be tampered with, if the generator is running.
The battery must always be disconnected, if work on the generator or electrical system is to be carried out,
so that the generator cannot be unintentionally started.
Switch off all load when working on the generator
All load must be disconnected, in order to avoid damages to the devices. In addition the semi conductors in the AC
control box must be disconnected in order to avoid the boat capacitors being activated. The minus pole of the battery
ought to be removed.
Capacitors are required to run the generator. These have two varying functions:
A) The working capacitors
B) The (Booster) capacitors
Both Groups are located in a separate AC-control box.
Capacitors are electrical stores. There could be a residual of high electrical current at the contacts for a period dis-
connection from the circuit. The contacts my not be touched for safety reasons, If the capacitors are to be exchanged
or checked, then a short circuit between the contacts should be made so that the stored energy is discharged.
If the generator is switched off in the normal manner, the working capacitors are automatically discharged by means
of the windings. The booster capacitors are discharged by means of internal discharge resistors.
All capacitors must be short-circuited before work is carried out on the AC control box for safety reasons.
