ELECTRIC STANDBY OPERATION
ELECTRIC STANDBY
OPERATION
Model 50 units are equipped with Electric
Standby. This feature allows the unit to operate
on electric power as well as be powered by the
standard diesel engine.
During Electric Standby operation, power to
the unit is supplied by an electric motor
connected to a high voltage power source.
Check the unit for proper power source ratings.
ELECTRIC POWER RECEPTACLE
The electric power receptacle is used to connect
the unit to an appropriate electric power source
for electric standby operation. Turn the unit
OFF before connecting or disconnecting the
power cord.
NOTE: The Model 50 control system
automatically determines if diesel or electric
power is desired.
See “See Starting the Electric Motor on
page 19” or on page 28 in the Unit Operation
chapters of this manual.
WARNING: Units equipped with
electric standby can start at any time
when the unit is connected to live
electric power and the controller is
turned on.
CAUTION: Always turn the electric
power supply off when handling,
connecting, or disconnecting high
voltage power cords.
