Identification plate  

All  required  identification  data  are  on  the  identification 

plate. For location of the identification plate see figure 1 

 

 

Fig. 1: Location identification plate. 

 

The  identity  of  the  generating  set  is  given  by  the 

SERIAL NUMBER.  

When  this  number  is  available  the  manufacturer  can 

trace  the  specifications  of  the  generating  set.  On  the 

identification plate are also some basic features of the 

set: 

 

POWER 

The  identification  plate  gives  the  nominal  maximum 

continues  load  in  kVA  (=  kW)  calculated  with  power 

factor  one.  When  calculating  a  load  one  should 

always  take  into  account  the  power  factor  or  cos  phi 

of  this  load.  The  power  should  never  exceed  the 

nominal  power  as  shown  on  the  identification  plate. 

Power  is  rated  at  an  ambient  temperature  of  25ºC. 

For higher temperatures the generating set has to be 

derated.  To  drive  the  radiator  fan  (230  V  fan)  output 

could  be  taken  from  power  generated  by  the  genset. 

In  that  case  net  power  will  be  less  than  specified  on 

the identification plate. 

 

VOLTAGE shows the nominal voltage.  

This  voltage  should  be  within  the  specified  tolerance 

at the nominal frequency. 

 

FREQUENCY  is  shown  in  Hz  and  is  determined  by 

the speed of the engine (RPM). 50 Hz correlates with 

3000 rpm. 

 

CURRENT  shows  the  maximum  current  that  is 

acceptable  at  the  specified  frequency,  voltage  and 

power factor.  

 

WEIGHT shows the net dry weight (approximately) in 

kg. This is without fuel, oil, cooling liquid, packing and 

external installation equipment  

 

CE-marking:  the 

“CE”  symbol  shows  that  the 

generating  set  is  build  according  to  European 

Community  safety  regulations.  This  includes  the 

regulations  regarding  the  safety  of  pleasure  craft, 

safety  of  machinery,  electric  safety  and  electric 

magnetic  compatibility  (EMC)  and  other  relevant 

directives. 

 

Safety  also  relies  on  the  installation,  application  and 

circumstances. See also the remarks in this manual under 

SAFETY  

 

Before  changing  a  factory  setting  you  are  advised  to 

consult  the  manufacturer.  When  the  generating  set  you 

have  to  identify  is  not  new  you  have  to  take  into  account 

the  possibility  that  former  users  may  have  changed  the 

settings.  Check  the  settings  (voltage,  frequency,  rpm) 

when there is any doubt.
