5.7.2 Raw water intake (on request)
VTE S.r.l.
recommends the “grid” type of raw water intake.
A flush-type thru-hull fitting is recommended for the raw water intake. It should be located on the boat's hull
where it will be below the waterline during all angles of the boat's operation
NOTE
: The seawater intake shape is usually designed asymmetrically, so that depending on the fitting
direction can cause, when the boat is sailing, pressure or vacuum in the water circuit connected. For a
generator the water intake must be fitted into the direction causing vacuum, because on the contrary a self-
water entrance can be caused when the boat is sailing and the set is not running, flooding the exhaust line
with water that finally reaches the engine oil sump causing severe damages to the engine

The generator can also be installed completely below the seawater line; in this case the siphon-break
valve must be installed!
5.8 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
5.8.1 Connection to starting battery
The PAGURO generator is negative grounded. For electric starting install a 12V battery of 90Amps. Connect
the positive (
+
) battery cable to the starter solenoid where is already fitted a thin red cable and the negative (
-
) cable to the engine ground stud (one of the 2 studs located on the starter where is already foreseen a
connector).
Please refer to the electrical drawing of this manual.
The generator's battery charger is designed to charge its starting battery only (8A max); In case of
connection to the main board batteries the 8 Amps are available as well, but are not enough to charge them:
an additional powerful battery charger fed by the main voltage generator must be installed on board.
