If the generator enclosure is scratched or damaged, it is important to touch-up 5704 Paint Kit the paint to protect from future corrosion.The paint kit includes the necessary paint to properly maintain or touch-up a generator enclosure. 5656-22&27kW 5984-36kW Scheduled Maintenance Kit The Liquid-Cooled Scheduled Maintenance Kits offer all the hardware necessary to perform complete maintenance on Generac liquid-cooled generators. 6205-48kW 5928 Wireless Remote Completely wireless and battery powered,Generac's wireless remote monitor provides you with instant status information without ever leaving the house. Remotely control generator functions with the advanced model's LCD display. 5951 Advanced Wireless Remote In addition to remote testing of the generator,set the exercise cycle and maintenance interval reminders. The PMM Starter Kit consists of a 24VAC,field installed transformer that enables 6199 PMM Starter Kit the use of the 24VAC Power Management Modules(PMMs)and one PMM.The standard controller(without starter kit)can control two HVAC loads with no additional hardware. Power Management Modules are used in conjunction with the Smart Switch to 6186 Power Management increase its power management capabilities.It gives the Smart Switch additional Module(50 Amps) power management flexibility not found in any other transfer switch.Not compatible with pre-wired switches. Generac's Mobile Link device allows you to check the status of your generator 6463 Mobile Link— Device from anywhere that you have access to an Internet connection from a PC or with any smart device.You will even be notified when a change in the generator's status occurs via e-mail or text message.

This reduces the length of wiring and conduit. • Install the generator as close as possible to the fuel supply, to reduce the length of piping. HOWEVER, REMEMBER THAT LAWS OR CODES MAY REGULATE THE DISTANCE. The concrete pad should be reinforced and deep enough so that the weight of the pad is equal to the weight of the generator(refer 1.4 GENERATOR MOUNTING AND to the"Generator Mounting and Support"section in this manual).

LP gas is heavier than air and will settle in low areas. Natural gas is lighter than air and will settle in high areas. Even the slightest spark can ignite these fuels and cause an explosion. For safety, all codes, standards and regulations pertaining to the installation and use of gas- eous fuels must be strictly complied with. 6 General Information Local fuel gas codes may vary widely.For that reason,it is recom- After checking all connections for leaks, check the static gas mended that a local gas distributor or installer be consulted when pressure at the secondary regulator to ensure there is sufficient installing a gaseous fuel supply system. pressure to operate the generator(see Owner's Manual).

LP Gas Doing so defeats the purpose of the flexible fuel line (Figure 1.8). Liquefied petroleum (LP) gas is heavier than air. The gas vapors Figure 1.8—Flexible Fuel Line are explosive and, like natural gas, can be ignited by the slightest spark. LP tank pressure is dependent on the ambient temperature and can be as high as 200 psi.A primary regulator is required at the tank to reduce the pressure to the required five to 14 inches of water col- m�, umn for units less than 70kW, or 11 to 14 inches of water column r, for units 70kW and larger. �1y 7 General Information 1$.4 THE NATURAL GAS SYSTEM 1.8.6 _ GASEOUS FUEL cM M MING A typical natural gas system is shown in Figure 1.10.

Gas pressure requirements for an LP vapor system at the frame of the generator are the same as those listed for natural gas in"The Natural Gas System". See Table 1 for information regarding the vapor capacity of LP tanks.The installer should be aware of the following: • When ambient temperatures are low and engine fuel consump- tion is high, the vapor withdrawal system may not function efficiently. • Ambient temperatures around the supply tank must be high enough to sustain adequate vaporization or the system will not deliver the needed fuel volume. • In addition to the cooling effects of ambient air,the vaporization process itself provides an additional cooling effect. 8 General Information Figure 1.10— Typical Natural Gas System Primary Regulator Generator Base Gas Actuator (Supplied by Installing Contractor) �— Fuel Shutoff/Regulator Assembly Flex Fuel Line (Supplied 11 - 14"Water Column with Unit) Recommended(>=70kW) 5- 14"Water Column Manual Shutoff Recommended(<70kW) Valve—�� P1 Figure 1.11— Typical LP Gas Vapor Withdrawal System Manual Shutoff Valves Generator Base Gas Actuator �—Fuel Shutoff/Regulator Assembly Flex Fuel Line (Supplied 11 -14"Water Column with Unit) Recommended(>=70kW) 5-14"Water Column Primary Regulator Recommended(<70kW) (Supplied by Fuel Installing Tank Contractor) 9 General Information 1.9 CALCULATING VOLUMETRIC Thus: FLOW RATE AND PIPE SIZE 91.34 If the Owner's Manual identifies the fuel consumption requirements v = 0.0356 by a volumetric flow rate(units of ft3/hr),skip the next section and go on to the section,Calculating Pipe Size.If the Fuel Consumption And: requirements are given in units of lb/hr, follow the next section, Calculating Volumetric Flow Rate. v — 2566 ft3/hr 111 CALCULATING VOLUMETRIC FLOW RATE Since the fuel consumption requirements (from the owner's 1.9.2 CALCULATING PIPE SIZE manual) are given as a mass flow (units of lb/hr), the volumetric Now that the volumetric flow rate has been identified, the mini- flow rate (ft3/hr) must be identified before the appropriate pipe mum pipe size can be determined by using Table 2.

The table is also based on a pressure drop of density. You may need to contact your fuel vendor to identify the 0.3,which allows for a nominal amount of restrictions from bends, density or specific gravity for your fuel. If your vendor provides fittings,etc. Example 2 illustrates how to calculate the pipe size for the specific gravity (relative to air) Table 1 can be used to identify the generator. the appropriate density. Since the density of natural gas and LP is temperature dependant, the maximum temperature of the fuel (at Example 2: Determine the iron pipe size for a generator that the fuel shutoff/regulator assembly) should be measured so the requires 2566 ft3/hr of Natural Gas. The unit is located 75 feet fuel consumption requirements can be more accurately identified from the fuel source. for the generator. A sample calculation (Example 1) is included in Solution: this section. Specific gravity of natural gas according to the local vendor: 0.5 Equation 1: Multiplier for the given specific gravity from Table 1: 1.1 v = m According to Table 2, a 2-1/2 inch pipe will deliver 1750 ft^3/hr J0 of air if it is located 75 feet from the fuel source.To determine the volumetric flow rate of natural gas, multiply the given flow rate by Where: the multiplier(from Table 1). v = Volumetric Flow Rate (ft3/hr) Natural gas flow rate = air flow rate(ft3/hr) *Multiplier m = Mass Flow Rate (lb/hr) = 1750 ft3/hr* 1.10 (T-60) Natural gas flow rate = 1925 ft3/hr P = Density from Table 1 - � Since the flow rate through a 2-1/2 inch iron pipe is less than the flow rate required by the generator (2430 ft3/hr),we must evaluate C = 11111 (for Natural Gas) or 3333 (for LP) the next larger pipe (3 inches) by the same method. T = Temperature of the fuel into the fuel shut-off/regulator Natural gas flow rate = air flow rate (ft3/hr) *Multiplier Example 1: Determine the volumetric flow rate for a generator that = 3000 ft3/hr* 1.10 requires 91.34 lb/hr of natural gas at 100%load. Natural gas flow rate = 3300 ft3/hr Solution: A 3 inch pipe is required at the given distance of 75 feet. Pressure Specific gravity according to the local vendor: 0.5 drop does not have to be considered unless an unusual number Density of Natural Gas from Table 1: 0.0383 Ib/ft3 of fittings, bends or other restrictions are used.

In all installations,a ground wire will run through the power conduit from the generator connection panel to the transfer switch (Figure 3.3 TOTAL CIRCUIT ISOLATION 3.3). METHOD Figure 3.3—Ground Wire When a generator capable of powering all electrical loads in the circuit is to be installed, use the"Total Circuit Isolation Method." It is possible for the generator to be overloaded when this isolation method is employed.

Unless a service entrance rated transfer switch is used, a main service disconnect(D) must be located before the transfer switch. In any three-phase application,the phase rotation of the generator The transfer switch is installed between the utility service entrance power lines must match the phase rotation of the utility power lines and the building distribution panel (A) (Figure 3.2). at the transfer switch (Figure 3.4). 17 Figure 3 4—Match Phase Rotation 3.6 CONNECTION DIAGRAMS All wiring in the standby electric power system must be in strict compliance with applicable codes, standards and regulations.
