Installation Equipment Description This product is only for uss as an optional generator system which provides an alternate source of electric power and to serve loads such as heating, refrigeration systems, and communication systems that, when stopped during any power outage, could cause discomfort of inconvenience.
Installation Checklist Proper installation of tha home generator requires the completion of the following tasks: Carbon Monoxide (C0) Attested [7] Carbon Monoxide (CO) debtor Installed and In working order. [7] smolder directorates) installed and in working order Placement [7] Required permits have been obtained Generator placed in an area free from Carbon Monoxide {CO} buildup. See Placement of Standby Generator in Reduce the Risk of Carbon Monoxide Polishing.
Generator Placement Before installing the generator, consult with the owner and convey the following requirements, which must be satisfied before the installation is complete. There are two squally important safely concerns in regards to carbon monoxide poisoning and fire. There are lase several general location guidelines that must be met before the installation is considered complete. Exhaust Side of Generator 4 WARNING Running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless, poison gas.
Placement of Standby Generator to REDUCE THE RISK OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING The arrows in the figure below point tv POTENTIAL points of entry for Carbon Monoxide Gas. All fossil fus! burning equipment, such as stand generators, contains carbon monoxide (GO) gas engine exhaust.
= Direct the standby generator exhaust away from or parallel to the building or structure. DO NOT direct the generator exhaust forwards a potentially occupied building, structure, windows, doors, ventilation intakes, offsite vents, craw! spaces, open garage doors or other openings where exhaust gas could accumulate and enter inside or be drawn into a potentially occupied building or structure. « DO NOT place standby generator in any area where leaves or debris normally accumulates.
Placement of Standby Generator to REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE The National Fire Protection Association (PAN) standard PAN 37 establishes criteria for minimizing the hazard of fire during the installation and operation of stationary combustion engines. PAN 37 limits the spacing of an enclosed generator farm openings in walls, structures and combustible materials outside the enclosure. The placement requirements provided ans based en compliance to PAN 37 2010 section 4.14.

NOTICE The supplied flexible gaseous pipe is not to be installed underground or in contact with the ground. = The entire flexible gaseous pipe must be visible for periodic inspection and must not be concealed within nor contact nor run through any wall, floor, or parson. The Gaseous Fuel System The Information below Iz provided to settle gaseous fusee system technicians in planning Installations. in no way should this Information be interpreted to conflict with applicable fue! gas codes.
Fue! Pipe Sizing Thea are numerous on-line or otherwise-published references for fue! pips sizing. For example, PAN 64 National Fus! Gas Code, 2008 {item #: 320-6031-06} is a common resource. The installer should consider the specific gravity of gas, compensate for a nominal amount of restriction from bends and fittings, and refer to federal and local codes for guidance. Fus! Conversion The unit is shipped from the factory calibrated for RG operation.
System Connectors Low voltages connections to signal fault contacts, transfer switch communication, remotes LED and auxiliary 12VDC power ars made via a removable fen-pin connector plug. Compare this illustration with your generator to familiarize yourself with the location of these connections.

A single-phase, thees-wire AC connection system is used VICEROY Prior to making conclusions, verity phase rotation in the generator. The stater assembly consists of a pair of utility power. of stationary winding with two leads brought out of each : : ; winding. The junction of leads 22 and 33 forms the neutral When making connections, aby we be and argue lead, as shown schematically and as wiring diagram.
Grounding the Generator Ground the generator per applicable codes, standards and regulations. There ars two generator GND lug locations. The one inside the alternator junction box next to the roulette breaker (A)is the primary lug and should suffice for most applications.
Ta install! the remote LED Indicator: 1. Push the LED through the mounting plate from the front until it snaps in place. The LED is polarity sensitive. 2. Using provided 10 pin connector and installer-supplied minimum 18AWG wire, connote the remote LED to the generator control board +LED and GND connection. Use wire nuts to attach wire to LED leads. 3. Attach mounting plate fo installer-supplied electrical box.
Coolant System This engine is shipped from the factory filled with a 50-50 mix of automotive ethylene-glycol anti-freeze and water This will provide optimum year round protection against freezing, boiling and corrosion. The coolant system incorporates an optional water heater that operates when ambient temperature is below 80 °F (25.6 °C} AND utility power is present at the transfer switch. Periodically check coolant level as described in the operator's manual.
Controls Gea the operator's manual for complete descriptions of the generator controls. Operation Automatic Operation Sequence The generators control panel houses a logic control circuit board. This control board constantly monitors utility power rouses voltage. Should that voltage drop below a preset level, control board action will signal the engine to crank and start.
