To ensure reliability and increase the engine service life, peak powers may be
slightly limited by circuit breakers.
The optimal operating conditions are ambient temperature of 17-25 °C,
barometric pressure of 0.1 MPa (760 mm Hg), and relative humidity of 50-60%.
Under these environmental conditions, the generator can provide maximum
performance in terms of the declared specifications.
In the event of deviations from these environmental indicators, the generator
performance may vary.
Please note that in order to preserve the long service life of the generator,
continuous loads of more than 80% of the nominal power are not recommended.
It is recommended to ground the generator before operating it for the first time.
Before starting the device, remember that the total power of the connected power
consumers should not exceed the nominal power of the generator.
TYPES OF POWER CONSUMERS AND START-UP CURRENT
There are two types of power consumers (electrical devices connected to the
generator): active and reactive. Active power consumers include all power
consumers whose power input is converted into heat (heaters).
Reactive power consumers include all power consumers equipped with an
electric motor. When starting an engine, start-up currents occur briefly whose
magnitude is based on the engine design and purpose of electrical appliance.
The magnitude of occurring start-up currents should be considered when
selecting a generator.
Most electrical appliances have a start-up current ratio of 2-3. This means that
the operation of such appliances requires a generator, the power of which is 2-3
times the power of the connected power consumer. Power consumers such as
compressors, pumps, washing machines have the highest start-up current ratio.
To avoid electric shock due to poor-quality electrical appliances or improper
use of electricity, the generator must be earthed using a high-quality insulated
conductor.
NOTE!
Do not operate single-phase and three-phase circuit breakers at the
same time to prevent electrical shock and avoid damage to your
electrical devices and the generator!
