1.8 Operation description
The main elements of the TEC 40D generator are: an engine (a), a permanent magnet alternator (b), an inverter (c), an internal control panel (d),
a terminal board (e) and an external control panel (f).
When the engine runs it drives the alternator to which it is solidly connected, which in turn generates alternating current that supplies the inverter.
The inverter “converts” the voltage supplied into a higher quality, perfectly stable voltage of 230 V and 50Hz supply.
The terminals, the socket where the extension of the external control panel is connected and the safety switch are located on the internal control
panel.
The external control panel is equipped with:
- buttons to start and stop the generator
- a back lit LCD screen showing the main electrical pro-
perties, an indicator shows that the generator is working
properly and an hour counter is also displayed. In the
case of problem the alarm messages are displayed on
this screen.
- LED indicators indicate low levels of petrol and oil.
