Chapter 4: 4.5 Installation for single-bearing generators
4.5 Installation for single-bearing generators
For installing the generator proceed according to the descriptions in this section
4.5. Prior to installation, read and understand the safety precautions in section
4.1 as well as the sections 4.2 to 4.4 and observe the instructions and
information given there.
Optionally, lifting eye bolts are provided on the top or on both sides of the
generator (45° from the vertical) for attaching lifting equipment. Lifting
equipment may only be attached to the generator using these lifting eye bolts.
Only appropriate lifting equipment may be used.
4.5.1 Scope of delivery (single-bearing generators)
The scope of delivery may differ depending on the generator version and the
engine type. The type of sealing against the engine depends on the engine/
manufacturer. For this reason, the appropriate sealings have to be ordered
together with the generator.
4.5.2 Dimensions (single-bearing generators)
The dimensions of the generator can be found in the drawing sheet included in
the annex.
No other parts may be mounted to the mounting
profiles of the generator housing.
CAUTION
4.5.3 Minimum clearances and regulations for cooling (singlebearing
generators)
In order to provide sufficient cooling the generator needs adequate ventilation.
The cooling air is sucked on the rear side by the fan impeller and then blown to
the front side through the cooling profiles along the housing. If necessary,
adequate openings for cooling air inlet and outlet have to be provided.
It is absolutely important to observe the following regulations for minimum
clearances and cooling.
