SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
Before installing the generator, arrangements must be made to
earth the machine.
This is the reason why you must make sure that the grounding sy-
stem is in good conditions and in compliance with the regulations of
the country where the generator will be installed.
CAUTION
THE FINAL INSTALLER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE INSTALLA-
TION OF ALL THE PROTECTIONS (SECTIONING DEVICES,
PROTECTIONS AGAINST DIRECT AND INDIRECT CONTACTS,
OVERCURRENT AND OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTIONS, EMER-
GENCY STOP, ETC.) NECESSARY FOR THE MACHINE TO
COMPLY WITH THE EXISTING INTERNATIONAL/EUROPEAN
SAFETY REGULATIONS.
For handling the unpacked generators, always use the special
eyebolts only; use ropes having a suitable carrying capacity and do
not lift the generator too much from the floor (max 30 cm.).
When the machine is worn cut, contact the companies in charge of
the disposal of ferrous material and do not throw away its parts into
the environment.
The operators in charge of the installation, operation and mainte-
nance of the generators must be skilled technicians who know the
characteristics of the generators.
The people in charge of the handling must always wear work gloves
and safety shoes. In case the generator or the whole plant must be
lifted from the floor, the operators must wear a safety helmet.
The generator must be installed in an airy room. If there is not
enough air, a malfunction or an overheating may occur (table 25
pag. 44). All entry doors into generator room should be clearly mar-
ked "Authorized persons only".
Make sure that genset foundations and baseframe are suitable to
bear the combined weight of the alternators and prime mover.
The installer is responsible for the correct coupling of the generator
to the engine and for the performance of all precautions necessary
to guarantee the correct operation of the generator and avoid abnor-
mal stress, which could damage the generator (such as vibrations,
misalignment, strange noises or vibrations, etc.)
The machine was designed to guarantee the nominal power in envi-
ronments with a maximum temperature of 40° C, at altitudes lower
than 1000 m asl (EN60034-1), unless otherwise specified; for diffe-
rent operating conditions, see the commercial catalogue (brochure).
