6.4 Battery charger
When the Gensets are not running for a long time ,
battery charger is used in order to charge the battery
,Battery charger is powered by mains , and mounted in
the control panel. A battery charger ampere indicator
can be added to control pane in order to see whether
battery charger is working or not .
Battery charger is manufactured with switching-mode
and SMD technology and ıt has high efficiency. Battery
charger models’ output V-I characteristic is very close
to square and output is 5 amper, 13,8 V for 12 volt
and 27,6 V for 24 V . Input 198 - 264 volt AC. Pro
-
line 2405 has fully output shot circuit protection and
ıt can be used as a current source. Proline 1205/2405
charger has high efficiency, long life, low failure rate,
light weight and low heat radiated in accordance with
linear alternatives. The charger is fitted with a protec
-
tion diode across the output. Connect charge fail relay
coil between positive output and CF output. They are
equipped with RFI filter to reduce electrical noise radi
-
ated from the device. Galvanic ally isolated input and
output typically 4kV for high reliability.
6.5. Control System Options
According to customer request, different options
could be added to control system.
• Parallel with mains continuously and black start sys
-
tem with mains.
• Automatic synchronizing and power control system
(Multi Gensets parallel).
• Load sharing system (scada).
• Remote monitoring and control.
• Remote alarm panel.
• Backup generator system.
6.5. Heaters
Alternator heaters could be mounted on the alterna
-
tor stators to keep it dry and protect it from humidity
and a heater could be mounted in the control panel to
prevent it against humidity too.
6.6.. Electric Fuel Transfer Pump
Electric Fuel Transfer Pump could be necessary to
pump the fuel from main tank to daily tank .Pump con
-
trol circuit is mounted in the control panel.
6.6. Voltage / Frequency Adjustment
A potentiometer could be mounted in the control
panel to adjust the frequency or voltage or both of
them. Frequency adjustment potentiometer is con
-
nected the electronic governor control module.
7. USE REQUIREMENTS
7.1. General Precautions And Controls Which Must
Be Done Before Starting Up The Generating Set
• Make a general visual inspection on the engine and
alternator. Check if there is any breakage, crack, inden
-
tation, leakage or looseness. Never operate the gener-
ating set before removing any fault, if any.
• Take out foreign materials such as keys, tools, clean
-
ing wool, papers etc. on the engine and the alternator.
• Check the fuel level in day tank. Refill with fuel if it
is low.
• Check the oil level on the dipstick. Refill with an
appropriate oil if it is low. Oil level normally must be
close to the maximum level line.
• Look at the water level by opening the radiator tap.
If it is inadequate add more water. Water level must be
30 mm lower than the water filling neck.
• Engine cooling water must include antifreeze ac
-
cording to the coolest weather conditions in the area.
A mixture of 50% antifreeze and 50% water provides
a good protection in all area.
• Inspect the radiator air outlet hood, open if clogged
and clear away all obstructions in front of the air outlet.
• Check the air filter gauge. Clean or replace air filter,
if necessary.
• Keep the inlet opening open.
• Make sure that the generating set can easily take air
from the environment.
• Check the battery connection cables. Take care to
tighten the loosened battery terminals with spanner
and, cover with special substance and keep clean in
order to avoid oxidation.
• Open the battery caps and check the liquid level in
the cells for maintenance type battery. Add distilled
water, if necessary, so as to be 1 cm higher than the
separation. Never fill the cells with tap water, acid wa
-
ter or acid.
• Check if the circuit breaker outlet switch is in OFF
position. (For manually operated Genset).
