INSTALLATION 1.4 VENTILATION The generating set normally draws air from the engine room. Engine rooms with natural ventilation must have vent openings of adequate size and location to enable the generating set to operate without overheating. To allow an ample supply of air within the temperature limits of the generating set an opening of at least 100 cm2 is required. A "sealed" engine compartment must have a good extraction ventilator to maintain reasonable engine room temperatures.

INSTALLATION 1.5.1 Fuel supply 1 FUEL TANK Fuel tanks should be made of appropriate material such as (stainless) steel or plastic. Steel tanks should not be galvanised or painted inside. Condensation can occur in metal tanks when temperature changes. Therefore, water accumulates at the bottom of the tank and provisions should be made for the drainage of this water.

INSTALLATION 1.5.2 Cooling Intercooling is based on a raw water pump, heat exchanger and water-injected exhaust. Cooling liquid in the internal cooling system is cooled in a heatexchanger by outboard water (raw water or seawater). After the raw water is warmed up in the heatexchanger it is dumped overboard by injecting it in the exhaust. The generating set should have its own sea water (coolant water) inlet and should not be connected to any other engine systems.
INSTALLATION The suction hose should be kept as short as possible. Raw water plumbing should avoid bends as much as possible. Restriction of raw water flow, caused by kinked hoses, undersized pipes or connections, will reduce the engine cooling capability. This is the main cause for overheating of an engine. After running the generating set for the first time, check the coolant flow rate using a stopwatch and by holding a pail of a known volume under the wet-exhaust outlet.
INSTALLATION DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE INGRESS OF WATER IN THE ENGINE IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTEE considerably, so that a rubber exhaust hose can be used and the level of noise is reduced as well. OPEN Figure 9: Siphon breaker connected Fig. 11: Whisper Power siphon breaker On the valve is a little hose to drain a little water that could be spilled from the valve. This hose should go down and may not end under water, because it should ventilate air into the valve to break the siphoning.

INSTALLATION 2 "SUPER SILENT" EXHAUST SYSTEM See figure 11. In order to reduce the noise level of the generating set to a minimum, an option to reduce the exhaust noise further (especially exhaust water splashing) is an exhaust/water separator. The exhaust/water separator allows the cooling water to be ejected through a line separate from the exhaust fumes and also functions as a goose neck to prevent water from flooding the engine.
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.
INSTALLATION One can mount the control panel after drilling a hole in the dashboard using the plastic cover. Refer to the dimensional drawing in paragraph 3.5. The panel without the plastic cover fits the Mastervision modular panel system. More remote control panels (slave panels) can be put in parallel by using the modular connectors on the back of the units. As a slave one can use the same panel offering all functions again.
INSTALLATION One of these options is to monitor a second battery (not being the starter battery) to start the generator automatically when the voltage of this battery drops below a certain setting. Other names for this second battery are “auxiliary battery”, “service battery”, ”users battery” or “consumers battery”. We will refer to this battery as “the second battery”(BAT2). In some menus the starter battery could be indicated as “the first battery” (BAT1).
INSTALLATION 3 OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS AND WARNINGS The battery should be secured for seagoing conditions and the terminals should be insulated. For extra safety the battery can be enclosed in a wooden, plastic, Fiberglas etc. (non metal) box. Even when the earth return system is applied a negative battery cable should be used and the vessel should not to be used as a conductor. In the negative battery cable a 250 Amp starter battery switch could be applied to switch off the battery.
INSTALLATION 2 GROUNDING The AC alternator windings are not grounded. Measures against earth insulation failures are often subject to local regulations. The housing of the alternator and all other metal parts are grounded. For safety reasons connect the main ships ground to negative point of the generating set start battery. When an ungrounded return DC system or positive grounded DC system is applied the battery negative should not be connected to the main ships ground.
INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS 2 INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS 2.1 INSTALLATION TABLE 6 Check if an AC breaker is installed before or after the power source selector. When there is only a circuit breaker, use it to disconnect the generating set from the grid. 7 Check all DC connections, check if the battery switch/ circuit breaker is closed. 8 Open the fuel valve and bleed the fuel system.

The models mentioned above are equipped with an electronic governor in addition to the mechanical governor that is on other Whisper models. A governor keeps the speed (RPM=Rotations Per Minute) of the engine at a fixed value. The RPM of the engine correlates with the frequency of the electrical output (3000 RPM =50 Hz) of the alternator.
