Fig. 5.6.7-1: Installation example
If the thru-hull exhaust outlet has to be mounted far from the generator, an exhaust-water separator must definitely
be installed. The sea water from the separator must then run along the shortest possible path is the thru-hull outlet.
For such long exhaust routes, the exhaust hose diameter should also be increased from NW 40 mm to NW 50 mm in
order to reduce the back-pressure. The exhaust may have a length of over 10 m (32 ft.), if the exhaust hose diame-
ter is increased to 50 mm. An additional outlet exhaust muffler close to the hull outlet will help further to reduce noise
emissions.
5.7 Installation of the fuel system
5.7.1 General references
Inside the generator capsule itself, there is the fuel filter installed (exception: Panda 4200 and 4500). Additional fuel
filters (with water separator) must be mounted outside the capsule in easily accessible places in the fuel lines bet-
ween the tank intake fuel pump and the diesel motor's fuel pump.
Generally forward and return fuel flow pipes must be mounted to the diesel tanks. Do not connect the generator fuel
supply lines with any other fuel lines of other diesel systems.
• The following items need to be installed:
• Fuel supply pump (DC)
• Pre-filter with water separator (not part of the delivery)
• Fine particle fuel filter
• Return fuel line to fuel tank (unpressurized)
The fuel supply pump should be mounted as close to the fuel tank as possible. The electric cable for the fuel pump
is already installed on the generator (length 5 m).
