Generator Failure

D.4.2Failure Bypass Switch
The start-failure bypass switch enables an immediate restart facility of the generator, should it cut
out, even if this was caused by over-heating. There is normally a requirement to wait until the
motor has cooled down to the correct temperature. This can last for several hours in certain cir-
cumstances, since the generator is enclosed in a sound-insulated casing, which prevents heat
loss.
Failure bypass switch
This period can be reduced by pushing the button on the front of the generator. The generator
can be started by means of the remote control as long as the button is depressed. The switch/
button bypasses any faults allowing the generator to run.
Before depressing the button, a manual check of the oil dip stick must be carried out to determine
whether the generator has sufficient oil, as it is possible that the oil pressure switch causes the
generator to cut out. If it has been ascertained that the reason for the motor cutting out is over-
heating and not lack of oil, the generator can be run for several minutes without load, so that the
motor is cooled by the circulating coolant.
BEWARE:
If the temperature is the reason for the generator cutting out when it is running under load, then
an immediate check must be made to determine the cause. It could be a fault with the cooling
system, one of the fans, the air-intake or a fault with the external cooling system.
Continual use of the starter-failure bypass switch should be avoided, while the generator cuts out
during operation.
The generator must always run without load for several minutes before being switched off, so that
a temperature compensation occurs. Heat accumulation can cause the generator to overheat,
even after ist has been switched off.
Should the overheating alarm be set off, caused by heat accumulation, after the generator has
been switched off, then this can also be bypassed using the switch.
