Introduction
Foreword
This manual contains instructions for installing, operating and
maintaining Kato Engineering AC brushless revolving field generators.
These generators are manufactured in many sizes and ratings and with
various options.
Lubrication information, electrical connection drawings, dimensional
drawings and parts listings for your model are contained in the
manual package as supplementary information and are the specific
source of information for making connections and ordering
replacement parts. Information about optional components of your
generator may also be contained as a supplement.
Please read this manual in its entirety before unpacking, installing, and
operating your generator.
Safety Instructions
In order to prevent injury or equipment damage, everyone involved
in installation, operating and maintenance of the generator described
in this manual must be qualified and trained in the current safety
standards that govern his or her work.
While “common-sense” prevention of injury or equipment damage
cannot be completely defined by any manual (nor built into any piece
of equipment), the following paragraphs define warnings, cautions,
and notes as they are used in this manual:
WARNING:
Warnings identify an installation, operating or
maintenance procedure, practice, condition, or statement that, if not
strictly followed, could result in death or serious injury to personnel.
CAUTION:
Cautions identify an installation, operating or
maintenance procedure, practice, condition, or statement that, if
not strictly followed, could result in destruction of or damage to
equipment or serious impairment of system operation.
NOTE:
Notes highlight an installation, operating or maintenance
procedure, condition, or statement and are essential or helpful but are
not of known hazardous nature as indicated by warnings and cautions.
Ratings/Description
Nameplates, which are located on the side of the generator, include
serial and model number as well as rating information and bearing
and lubrication information.
WARNING:
Shock hazard—Do not
service the generator or other electrical
machinery without de-energizing and
tagging the circuits as out of service.
Dangerous voltages are present, which
could cause serious or fatal shock.
NOTE:
For specific lubrication instructions,
always refer to the bearing lubrication
sheet that came with your manual or the
lube plate on the generator. Unauthorized
lubricants may result in a bearing failure.
