DCA70SSIU 50 HZ GENERATOR • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #1 (01/06/09) — PAGE 35
GENERATOR START-UP PROCEDURE (MANUAL)
Verify that the 6. engine running status LED on the MPEC
unit (Figure 41) is ON (lit) after the engine has been
started.
Engine Running LED (ON) Figure 41.
The generator’s frequency meter (Figure 42) should be 7.
displaying the 50 cycle output frequency in HERTZ.
Frequency Meter Figure 42.
The generator’s AC-voltmeter (Figure 43) will display 8.
the generator’s output in VOLTS. If the voltage is not
within the specified tolerance, use the voltage
adjustment control knob (Figure 44) to increase or
decrease the desired voltage.
Voltmeter Figure 43.
Voltage Adjust Control Knob Figure 44.
The ammeter (Figure 45) will indicate 9. zero amps with
no load applied. When a load is applied, the ammeter
will indicate the amount of current that the load is
drawing from the generator.
Ammeter (No Load) Figure 45.
The engine oil pressure gauge (Figure 46) will indicate 10.
the oil pressure of the engine. Under normal operating
conditions the oil pressure is approximately 35 to 65
psi. (241~448 kPa).
Oil Pressure Gauge Figure 46.
The 11. coolant temperature gauge (Figure 47) will
indicate the coolant temperature. Under normal
operating conditions the coolant temperature should
be between 165°~215°F (74°~102°C) (Green Zone).
Coolant Temperature Gauge Figure 47.
The 12. tachometer gauge (Figure 48) will indicate the
speed of the engine when the generator is operating.
Under normal operating conditions this speed is
approximately 1500 RPM’s.
