The WhisperGen

Introduction

Congratulations on purchasing a WhisperGen PPS16.

This manual is designed to allow you to quickly learn how to safely operate your WhisperGen.
Please keep this manual for future reference and read it before operating or maintaining your
WhisperGen.

For information regarding the standard kit items supplied with each WhisperGen, and if you have
any questions or suggestions feel free to contact your authorised WhisperGen agent.

In some countries, it is a requirement that this manual be permanently placed alongside the
WhisperGen and maintained in a readable condition. Check with your local authority regarding
this requirement.

What it Does

The WhisperGen PPS16 is a Personal Power Station that generates heat and electrical energy
simultaneously.

The WhisperGen is capable of charging and managing a lead-acid battery bank to provide a DC
electrical power supply.

It also provides heat energy in the form of hot coolant for space heating and domestic hot water
generation.

Note: Not all elements of the actual system are shown in this schematic.

In this manual, warnings against hazards are marked with the symbol
shown on the left. Heed all warnings at all times.
