Notice the preceding tables give two (2) different units of measur-
ing fuel pressure. The first is with a pressure gauge calibrated in
ounces per square inch. The second and most accurate is the
use of a simple water manometer. A manometer is calibrated in
inches of water column.
LP LIQUID WITHDRAWAL SYSTEMS
When installing a unit equipped the LP liquid withdrawal a
primary regulator is not required on the supply tank. The supply
line is connected to a liquid withdrawal valve on the supply tank
and runs directly to the fuellock strainer mounted on the engine
generator set. Normally a 3/8 to 1/2 inch copper line is accept-
able for this type of fuel installation. You must be sure that the
valve you have connected to on the supply tank is in fact a liquid
supply valve and has a drop tube inside the tank that is pulling
fuel from the bottom of the supply tank. Before starting the unit
you must confirm that you have a good liquid supply at the unit.
Engine generator sets equipped for liquid withdrawal will not
run properly when supplied with high pressure vapor fuel.
LUBRICATION
Before starting the engine, check the oil level in the crankcase. If
it is low, refill to the full mark with the proper weight/grade of oil as
recommended by the engine manufacturer’s maintenance
instructions. The necessity of using the correct oil, and keeping
the crankcase full cannot be over emphasized. Failure to use the
proper oil and keep the crankcase properly filled will cause
excessive engine wear and shorten its useful life.
COOLANT
Before starting the engine, check the coolant level in radiator. If it
is low, refill as specified in the engine manufacturer’s mainte-
nance instructions. The radiator should be filled to about 1 inch
below the filler neck. For additional information on engine coolant
requirements see engine manufacturer’s maintenance instruc-
tions.
INSTALLING THE BATTERY
****************
***** WARNING *****
****************
PERSONAL DANGER - Do not use galvanized pipe in fuel line
runs. The galvanized coating can become eroded and flake off,
causing possible obstructions in the regulator or fuel valve. The
results could range from inoperative engine start to hazardous
fuel leaks.
Size of pipe normally required for generators operating on NG/LP:
up to 25 feet* over 25 feet*
PSS30
1" pipe not recommended
PSS40
1" pipe use a two regulator system
* Allow an additional 3 feet for each standard elbow.
Do not use ‘street ells’ (restrictive).
**** CAUTION ****
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE - Be careful when sealing gas line joints.
Excessive sealing compound can be drawn into the solenoid,
regulator or carburetor causing an engine malfunction.
FUEL PRESSURE (vapor system)
Correct fuel pressure cannot be stressed enough. The most
common cause for inoperative systems is an inadequate or
incorrect fuel pressure. Performance of the engine is in direct
relation to the correctness of the fuel system. Shown below is a
block diagram of a typical L.P. or N.G. Installation.
