Ventilation valve
A siphon must be installed if the genera-
tor sinks below the water line because of
the rocking of the boat, even if it is only
for a short period of time. A hosepipe on
the generator casing has been produced
for this. Both connecting pieces are brid-
ged by a formed piece of hose.

Cooling water injector nozzle
The injection point for the marine genera-
tor water-cooled exhaust system is situa-
ted at the exhaust connection pieces The
exhaust connections must be regularly
checked for signs of corrosion.

A.2.3 Components of Cooling System (Freshwater)
Cooling water filler neck
The cooling water filler nck situated at the
water-cooled manifold are only used,
when the generator is initially started.
Since the generator is normally already fil-
led with cooling water, these components
are only by the user, if repairs are to be
carried out. Topping up with cooling water
may only carried out at the external coo-
ling water compensation tank. Note that
the water level in the cooling water com-
pensation tank is only 20% of the volume
in a cold state.
