See the Installation Manual for important recom-
mendations regarding the installation of an LPG va-
por withdrawal type of fuel supply system. Gensets
equipped for vapor withdrawal of LPG must be
equipped with a fuel shutoff solenoid valve and de-
mand regulator. These are available as a kit for
mounting near the genset. See Figure 6-29.

in
the
event the diaphragm leaks and to prevent erratic fuel
delivery because of pressure fluctuations cause by
the cooling air flow through the compartment)

(The regulator must be mounted such that
the diaphragm is in a vertical plane, as
shown, to maintain calibrated gas pressure.)
