Figure 6: Mounting of the air strainer element
2.4.2 Air strainer element
Applying a generator in a vehicle, where combustion air is
taken in from below the vehicle, there is often much dust,
sand and dirt in the air. For these applications Mastervolt
prescribes the installation of an air strainer element. This
air strainer element is in the standard supply, but not yet
mounted as often the best place to mount it will be
different in any installation.
To install the air strainer element one has to find the best
place somewhere on the canopy. Figure 6 shows the
recommended place, but the filter can be mounted
everywhere, even on the bottom, hanging down.
Use sealant or kit between the flange and the surface.
ATTENTION!
In any case it is necessary to open a hole for
air inlet!
2.5 CONNECTIONS
The generating set comes with all supply lines and output
cable (i.e. electric cables, coolant connections, exhaust,
fuel lines etc.) already connected to the engine and
generator. The supply lines are fed through the capsule’s
front base. The connections are marked as shown in figure
7
All electrical connections, cable types and sizes must
comply with the appropriate national regulations. Supplied
cables are rated for ambient temperatures up to 70°C. If
the cables are required to meet higher temperature
requirements, they must be run through conduits.
ATTENTION!
