5.11 Generator DC system installation
Note:
The Panda 5000i has no DC alternator to charge the
Starter battery. The Starterbattery must be charged by an
external device.
It is recommended to install an additional starter battery for the generator.
The generator is then independent from the remaining battery set. This enables you to start the genset at any time
with its own starter battery even if the other batteries are discharged. A further advantage of a separate starter
battery is that it isolates the generator's electric system from the rest of the boat's DC system, i.e. minus pole (-) is
not connected electrically to Earth/Ground.
The generator is then Earth/Ground free.
5.11.1 Connection of the starter battery block
An own separate starter battery must be installed for the generator.
The positive cable (+) of the battery is attached directly at the solenoid switch of the starter motor (position 1). The
negative cable (-) of the battery is attached underneath the starter motor at the engine mount (position 2).
NOTE:
Panda Generators Panda 6000 and higher normally
provided with an alternator/dynamo to charge the starter
battery. At generators without alternator/dynamo it is
needed to charge the starter battery with an external
battery charger.
ATTENTION!
Make sure that the voltage of the starter battery fits to
the start system voltage
f.e. 12 V starter battery for a 12 V start system
f.e. 24 V starter battery for a 24 V start system (2x12 V
batteries in a row)
NOTE:
To avoid large voltage drops the battery should be
installed as near as possible to the generator. The
positive terminal of the battery is attached at the red
cable, the negative pole at the blue cable.
A t t e n t i o n ! : C o n s i d e r c o r r e c t c o n n e c t i o n
sequence
It must be guaranteed that first the cables are attached at the
generator and then at the battery.
Attention!: Right connection of the battery.
Battery connection
Wrong connection of the battery bank can cause a short-
circuit and fire.
Install an appropriate fuse and a battery circuit breaker in the plus pole cable of the battery, but with a distance to the
battery of up to 300 mm (12 inch) at maximum.
The cable from the battery to the safety device must be secured with protective pipe/sleeve against chafing through.
For the connection use self-extinguishing and fire-protected cables, which are appropriate for temperatures up to
90 °C, 195 °F.
