Figure 4: Fuel supply
Both supply and return fuel pipe lines should be
appropriate material and 5/16” (8 mm) outer diameter
tubing. The quality of the tubing of fuel pipes could be
submitted to local regulations depending on the application
of the vessel.
The fuel pipes can be plumbed to the flexible hoses which
are on the generating set and have a connection to fit to
5/16” (8 mm) pipe. This fuel lines fulfils CE standards and
are according to ISO 7840 A2. It is important to avoid
bends in the pipes, as they could trap air bubbles. The
return pipe should never be connected to the suction pipe
or to other consumers of diesel fuel, such as the
propulsion engine and heaters and return pipes

FUEL FILTERS
A fine fuel filter is installed which requires maintenance.
Mastervolt advises to install an extra fuel filter/ water fuel
separator near the fuel tank.
Before starting your generating set for the first time follow
the fuel system bleeding procedure in the users manual.
