Service Code Detection System

The generator may have to run for long periods of time
with no operator present. For that reason, the system is
equipped with sensors that automatically shut down the
generator in the event of potentially damaging conditions,
such as low oil pressure, high temperature, over speed, and
other conditions.
The generator's control board shows service code control boar control board
descriptions scrolling across the digital display. The service scrolling acro crolling acr
