INSTALLATION

If the generating set and the exhaust system have been
installed correctly, neighbouring boats will not be disturbed
by generating set noise, With the "super silent" exhaust
system, generating set noises are almost inaudible. For
optimal noise reduction, the sea water outlet from the
exhaust/water separator (center outlet on the unit) should
be installed below the water level to eliminate noisy
splashing of the effluent sea water.
The through-hull outlet for the exhaust fumes should not
direct the fumes directly toward the water surface as this
will cause excessive noise (ref. to fig. 17).
Do not direct the outlet directly toward the
water surface.

Digital Diesel Control system (12 Volt)

DIGITAL DIESEL CONTROL SYSTEM
The electrical control system is standard in 12 Volt with
negative earth. Non- earth return is available as an option
for aluminium vessels to prevent corrosion.
All electrical wiring has been prepared on the generating
set to the control panel prior to despatch from the factory.
The engine is controlled by a very advanced
microprocessor based system: Digital Diesel Control.
The “black box” containing the microprocessor is located
on top of the alternator.
A local control panel is on the generating set.
Remote control
A remote control panel also containing a microprocessor is
in the delivery. A 15 m intermediate 8-pole communication
cable is in the standard supply as well (refer to fig. 18). If
necessary an optional longer (up to 30m / 100ft)
intermediate cable can be connected if the standard length
does not suit the required distance. When a longer
distance than 30m / 100ft is required, consult the Whisper
Power service department for advice.
