DC WIRING
Remote Control (Option)
Onan offers optional remote control kits that can be
connected to the genset. There are three models
available:
• Remote panel with start/stop switch and indica-
tor lamp only (see Figure 7-4).
• Remote panel with start/stop switch, indicator
lamp, and hour (elapsed time) meter (see Fig-
ure 7-5).
• Remote panel with start/stop switch, indicator
lamp, and battery DC voltmeter (see Figure
7-6).
The location of the remote control panel can vary by
application. Refer to the instructions supplied with
the remote control kit for more installation informa-
tion and important safety precautions.
Be sure to seal all openings made for wiring so
exhaust or fuel vapors cannot enter the living
quarters. If flexible metal conduit is used, it must be
sealed internally at the end where it terminates.
Flexible metal conduit is not vapor-tight along its
length due to its construction.
WARNING
Inhalation of exhaust gas or ignition
of fuel vapor can cause severe personal injury
or death. Be sure to vapor-seal flexible metal
conduit and all openings made during installa-
tion of the genset with a silicone/rubber based
sealant.
A remote control connector is located inside the
housing (see Figure 1-1 on Page 1-2). Keep the
connector inside the genset housing to keep it
clean. Contact an Onan dealer for the proper re-
mote connector plug and wiring harness assembly.
For non-Onan remote control panels, refer to Figure
7-7 on Page 7-6 for a typical remote control wiring
diagram. The connector which mates with the gen-
set connector can be ordered from Onan. Refer to
the Onan Accessory Catalog.
