X143IP Intermediate Power Generator
Quick Start Instructions
Attaining Optimal Performance
• For optimum functioning of the X143IP Power Generator, the AC voltage of the turbine should be
between 185 and 200 VAC
• If the AC voltage is lower, please refer to the chart below see (Figure 8) to find your differential
pressure across the turbine
• This differential pressure allows you to know the maximum power delivered from the X143IP Power
Generator. With this information, you can evaluate power generated versus power consumed
