3 OPERATION
3.1 BEFORE STARTING
The operator should familiarize him/herself with the major sub-systems and location of key
components using Appendix F, Parts List, understand the TEG Specifications and have
read the manual prior to starting the TEG.
1. CALCULATE THE TARGET POWER FOR THE CURRENT AIR TEMPERATURE AND
ALTITUDE BEFORE STARTING THE TEG. REFER TO SECTION 5. Record on the
performance log (page 65).
2. Inspect the TEG for mechanical damage and remedy if found. If excessive damage is
found contact Global Power Technologies (GPT).
3. Check that the fuel system connections are tight and have been checked for leaks.
4. Check the electrical connections to the customer terminal block are tight and correctly
connected.
5. Check that the resistor assembly has been rotated down to the operating position.
6. Check that the TEG has been properly grounded and bonded to the site ground.
7. Remove the left and right cabinet panels by turning the 1/4 turn fasteners counter
clockwise.
8. Inspect the air shutter for cleanliness and open to 50%.
9. Open the main electrical enclosure and prop open the door using the slide latches on
the top of the enclosure.
10. Check that the internal battery has been connected, that the battery fuse is in place and
intact.
11. Turn the customer load circuit breaker to the “OFF” position.
3.2 TEG START-UP
1. Supply fuel and open the manual shut-off valve.
2. Observe the fuel pressure at the pressure gauge. Refer to the data plate for the nominal
fuel pressures for Natural Gas and Propane.
3. Unless otherwise instructed, the TEG should be started at the nominal fuel pressure.
Pressure may be adjusted to rated values by turning the screw on the pressure regulator,
see Figure 7.
If the TEG Controller (Remote Start) option has been installed, refer to Appendix I - Options
for starting instructions.
