5.8 Generator DC system installation
NoticeThe Panda 5000i has no DC alternator to charge the Star-
ter battery. The Starterbattery must be charged by an
external device.
It is recommended to install an additional starter battery for the generator.
The generator is then independent from the remaining battery set. This enables you to start the genset at any time
with its own starter battery even if the other batteries are discharged. A further advantage of a separate starter bat-
tery is that it isolates the generator's electric system from the rest of the boat's DC system, i.e. minus pole (-) is not
connected electrically to Earth/Ground.
The generator is then Earth/Ground free.
5.8.1 Connection of the starter battery block
An own separate starter battery must be installed for the generator.
The positive cable (+) of the battery is attached directly at the solenoid switch of the starter motor (position 1). The
negative cable (-) of the battery is attached underneath the starter motor at the engine mount (position 2).
NOTE:
Panda Generators Panda 6000 and higher normaly provided
with an alternator/dynamo to charge the starter battery. At
generators without alternator/dynamo it is needed to charge
the starter battery with an external battery charger.
ATTENTION!
Make shure that the voltage of the starter battery fits to the start
system voltage
f.e. 12 V starter battery for a 12 V start system
f.e. 24 V starter battery for a 24 V start system (2x12 V batte-
rys in a row)
NOTE:
To avoid large voltage drops the battery should be installed as
near as possible to the generator. The positive terminal of the
battery is attached at the red cable, the negative pole at the
blue cable.
