4.2.3 Checks during operation
Regularly carry out following checks:
– Check the analogue meters (PV1-PA1) and the
controller display for normal readings.
– Check for leakage of oil, fuel or coolant.
– Check, by means of the generator gauges, that the
voltage between the phases is identical and that
the rated current is not exceeded.
– When single-phase loads are connected to the
generator output terminals, keep all loads well-
balanced.
– If circuit breakers have tripped during operation,
switch off the load and stop the generator. Check
and, if necessary, decrease the load.
Avoid to let the engine run out of
fuel. If it happened, priming will
speed up the starting.
Avoid long low-load periods
(< 30%). In this case, an output
drop and higher oil consumption of
the engine could occur. Refer to
chapter “Preventing low loads”.
The generator’s doors may only
remain opened for short periods
during operation, to carry out
checks for example.
