General points
- The generator is a machine which can produce AC electrical power using mechanical power
(fuel). The generator will fed the onboard equipment operating at 220V or 110V, moored or
sailing.
- The generator starts with its own battery (12 V circuit).
- Make sure that there is enough fuel in the fuel tank before using the generator. The generator
is fed by fuel through the fuel tank port.
- The cooling water and exhaust gases are separated in the separator to avoid noise pollution.
The seawater is discharged below the waterline. The exhaust- pipe is located above the
waterline. Check visually that the exhaust gases are being expelled properly.
Make sure that the ventilator in the generator compartment is working.
- Check to see if any leaks appear (sea water, coolant, fuel, exhaust gases). If there is a leak,
stop the generator at once and get the leak repaired.
- The generator is earthed by an earthing plate which is located under the hull (see Chapter:
E
ARTHING PLATES
).
- Maintenance of the generator must only be done by qualified and proficient personnel.
Before working on the generator, it is imperative to isolate the generator's battery power, to
prevent it from starting accidentally.
- The generator can be started by the switch on the generator or by the switch on the control
panel.
Starting up
- Fill the generator with water to prevent the seawater pump from running dry (refer to the
supplier's recommendations).
- Open the raw water intake valves and evacuation valves.
- Open the fuel supply valve.
- Turn the generator's battery switch to the ON position.
- Switch the generator's circuit-breaker to the ON position.
- Turn on the generator using the remote control (located near the main switch panel).
or on the generator itself.
- Make sure that no AC equipment is running. Then set the shore power/ generator switch.
