Fuel Considerations
Fuel Types: Fuel must be either natural gas or propane gas. Check the TEG Data Plate for
the fuel type, (Figure 23). Do not use a different type of fuel than indicated. If you would like
to convert your 5220 to run on a fuel other than the one indicated on the data plate, please
contact GPT.
WARNING!
Fuel supplied to the TEG must not contain liquids.
Liquid hydrocarbons in the fuel supply pose a risk of
fire and may result in serious damage to the TEG and
danger for the operator.

Supply Pressure: Fuel pressure supplied to the 5220 TEG must be at least 25 PSI (172 kPa)
and not more than 50 PSI (345 kPa). If supply pressures are above this limit, or fuel supply
pressures are expected to fluctuate, GPT recommends installing an additional pressure
regulator upstream of the TEG to maintain constant fuel pressure supplied to the TEG.
