ENGINE GENERATOR SET MOUNTING
This engine-generator set is generally supplied as weather
enclosed packages for quick installation on an outdoor
concrete pad. They are also available as open skid mounted
units for indoor installation in a building or protective
enclosure, properly ventilated, supplied by the installer.
The factory weather enclosures are acoustical housing
intended for outdoor installation only. Factory weather
enclosed units are not intended to be used indoors and
no support is available to assist in re-engineering finished
packaged units. The unit should be mounted to allow
ample working room around it. A general rule to follow is
to allow 24 inches or more of clearance for maintenance.
Follow local codes for clearance from combustible surfaces.
The unit’s main frame must be bolted securely to a solid
base. The engine-generator is mounted on channels which
are attached with special shock mounts to the main frame.
This allows the engine-generator free movement without
affecting the base or surrounding equipment.
WARNING: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE:
Never mount these engine-generator sets to a wooden
base/structure. Over time, the wood will deteriorate and
the unit mountings will come loose. These units must be
mounted to a steel or concrete base.
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
OPEN SKID
WARNING: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE:
It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that there is
sufficient cooling air available to prevent the engine
and generator from over heating. Damage caused by
overheating is not covered by warranty.
Providing proper air movement during your installation
planning is essential. You will need to provide a fresh air
inlet as well as a hot air outlet (to the outside of protection
housing) for proper engine performance. These engine-
generator sets are equipped with unit mount radiators and
the engine is equipped with a pusher type fan. The hot
air from the face of the radiator must be ducted out of the
enclosure to ensure proper cooling. Failing to do so will
allow the hot air to recirculate around the radiator causing
the engine to overheat, resulting in an engine shutdown
and damage. If louvers are used in front of the hot air duct
to protect the unit from outside weather, the louvers should
be 1½ times as large as the area of the radiator face to
prevent back pressure.
Foam or other seals can be used to form a tight lip forcing
all of the air from the engine fan out of the enclosure.
In addition to a hot air discharge, you must plan a fresh air
intake opposite the radiator discharge. Their fresh air inlets
should be 1½ to 2 times larger than the radiator face. The
extra air inlet area is required to minimize restriction and
to provide combustion air for the engine. Do not block
fresh air intakes with other equipment as this will result
in insufficient air flow to the engine for cooling. Installing
them opposite the hot air discharge will allow a sweeping
flow of cooling air across the engine, preventing hot spots.
The WINCO installation manual OPM-112 contains
additional information on indoor, open skid installations
and is available electronically through our website or by
requesting a copy from the factory.
The unit should be mounted to allow ample working room
around it. A general rule to follow is to allow 24 inches or
more of clearance for maintenance. Follow local codes for
clearance from combustible surfaces.
INSTALLING THE FUEL LINE
WARNING: FIRE DANGER:
Connecting rigid fuel line (i.e. steel or copper line) directly
to the inlet fuel filter or fuel pump may cause the fuel line to
crack during operation creating a serious fire hazard.
The fuel supply should be as close to the engine as
possible. This will reduce the installation cost of fuel runs
and minimize line losses. The diesel fuel supply should be
no more than 3 feet below the fuel inlet on the pump. If
your fuel supply is lower than three feet you may have to
install an additional lift pump to bring the fuel up to the
mechanical fuel pump on the engine.
The information in this manual is offered to assist you in
providing the proper fuel for your engine. However, this
information is only provided to inform you of the engine’s
requirements and assist in making you aware of the
decisions you must make. In no case should the instructions
or information provided be interpreted to conflict with any
local, state, or national codes. If in doubt, always consult
your local fire marshal or fuel supplier.
Engine generator sets are properly adjusted before they
leave the factory. Connecting a fuel supply with adequate
supply volume is critical to reliable operation. Diesel units
with optional base mounted fuel tanks are pre-plumbed to
the mechanical fuel pump on the engine.
Open skid mounted Diesel units are often supplied with
capped inlet and return lines. The use of a sustainable
customer supplied flexible fuel line is essential between
the engine and fuel supply to provide a vibration break
between your fuel supply and the engine.
