GENERATOR - SCHEMA
GENERAL POINTS:
A generator is a device that can produce electricity (220V or 110V) from a mechanical energy
(fuel). The generator will fed the onboard equipment operating at 220V or 110V, moored or
sailing.
OPERATION:
- Open the raw water intake valves and evacuation valves.
- Turn the generator's battery switch to the ON position.
- Switch the generator's circuit-breaker to the ON position.
- Turn the generator on by remote control (located on the nautical chart table) or your at your
own generator.
- Check that any device is not running 220V or 110V. Then set the shore power/ generator
switch (located on the chart table).
OPERATION:
- Supply - Diesel:
The generator is fed by fuel through the fuel tank port. The fuel filter is located at the generator
circuit.
- Refrigeration:
The generator is cooled::
by seawater (inlet valve sea water and sea water filter) ;
and by air (air exhaust duct, thats runs through a ventilator and through the fresh air inlet).
- Electricity:
The generator includes its own battery to start the engine. The generator is earthed by an
earthing plate which is located under the hull.
- Rejection:
The cooling water and exhaust gases are separated in the separator to avoid noise pollution.
The seawater is discharged below the waterline. The exhaust- pipe is located above the
waterline.
WARNING
- Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for use and maintenance.
