Casing
The ventilation screw above the cooling water pump casing
may not be opened under any circumstances, while the genera-
tor is running. Air will be sucked through the opening, if this
should happen by mistake. Venting the whole system after-
wards is necessary and very difficult.
6.12.1 Replacement of the V-Belt for the internal cooling water pump
The relative high ambient temperature in the closed sound insulated capsule (about 85°C) can be a reas on for a
reduced lifespan of the v-belts. It is possible that the "softeners" in the rubber compound lose their effect after a short
operating time because the air in the sound insulated capsule can be relative warm and dry. The v-belt must be con-
trolled at very short time intervals. It may be required to change the v-belt after several weeks because of unfavoura-
ble conditions. Therefore, control should be carried out after an interval of 150 operating hours. The v-belt is a
wearing part. There should be enough spare v-belts on board. We recommend that you have the respective manual
within reach.
