Electrical System
The seawater cooling system operates exactly
like the cooling system on the main engines. It
includes an inlet sea strainer that prevents debris
in the seawater from entering the cooling pump.
The strainer is located near the generator. It is im-
portant to check and clean the strainer regularly to
ensure the seawater system can circulate enough
water to provide cooling for the closed cooling and
exhaust systems on the generator. You should also
check the exhaust port for water flow each time
the generator is started. If there is no discharge
within thirty seconds, shut down the generator and
find and correct the problem.
Notice:
Generators consume DC electrical current
and charge the house/generator battery just
enough to compensate for the DC electri-
cal current the engine requires to operate.
Therefore, it is important to activate the bat-
tery charger to maintain the house and engine
batteries whenever the generator is running.
Notice:
The generator may not be able to operate all
120/220 volt accessories at the same time.
POWER MANAGEMENT PRACTICES may need
to be observed depending on the AC power
load and the generator option selected.
Cleaning the Sea Strainers
• Turn off the engines and generator.
• Close the generator water intake valve.
