•
Engines may be fitted with seals or O-rings
manufactured from "viton" or similar material.
When exposed to abnormal high temperatures in
excess of 400°C an extremely corrosive acid is
produced which cannot be removed from the
skin. If signs of decomposition are evident, or if in
doubt, always wear disposable heavy duty
gloves.
2.2
TRANSPORT, LIFTING AND STORAGE
When lifting the generating set avoid any risk
of personal injuries, do not stand under the
generating set.
•
Use soft slings to avoid damage
•
On the engine are two hoist eyes which can be
used to take the generator out of the capsule.
They can also be used to lift the complete
generating set including the capsule.
•
After transporting the generating set check for
damage before installation.
•
Long term storage can have detrimental effects
on engine and alternator. The engine should be
put through an engine preservation procedure.
(Refer to the maintenance chapter)
•
The alternator windings tend to condense. To
minimise condensation, store the generating set
in a dry and warm storage area.
•
After removing the generating set from long term
storage perform an insulation check. (Refer to the
alternator maintenance paragraph for
procedures)
•
While the battery is stored it should be recharged
every 12 weeks.
2.3 THE
W-SQ20
2.3.1 Features
This generating set includes a 4 cylinder diesel engine
which is connected by close coupling to a tri phase
synchronous alternator in a sound attenuated capsule.
The set is mounted on a steel base frame and mounted
securely on anti vibration mounting pads to the capsule
base. The complete set is again on rubber mountings. All
cables and hoses are guided through the capsule’s sides.
The set is not self contained and is only operable after
proper installation using additional accessories and
installation materials
Installation accessories are listed in the installation manual
and are available through the supplier of the generating
set. The full automatic Digital Control is based on
microprocessor technology. Several automatic start/stop
functions can be programmed and monitored (refer to
Digital Diesel Control users manual).
