<strong>Synchronous</strong> <strong>Generators</strong> <strong>BG</strong> <strong>132</strong> / <strong>BG</strong> <strong>160</strong><br />
Proper use<br />
Proper use<br />
The generators described in this manual are intended for the generation of<br />
electrical energy within the context of emergency st<strong>and</strong>by operation for feeding<br />
in mobile distribution systems. The generators must only be used according to<br />
the voltage <strong>and</strong> power specifications listed on the type plate. Reverse feeding<br />
operation (e.g. connection of four-quadrant converters) is not planned <strong>and</strong> only<br />
conditionally possible after consulting the manufacturer.<br />
The generators have to be driven with the specified rated speed. The generator<br />
outputs have to be protected against overcurrent <strong>and</strong> short-circuit by adequate<br />
fuse equipment according to the specifications on the type plate.<br />
The generators must not be connected to other power distribution or electricity<br />
generation systems (such as other generators or the public electricity supply<br />
network, for example).<br />
The use of the generators is only allowed for applications described here <strong>and</strong> in<br />
conformity with the specifications given in this manual. Any other application is<br />
considered to be improper use <strong>and</strong> is not permitted.<br />
In case of improper use, misuse or abuse of the generators or of parts of them,<br />
Generator-Technik Schwäbisch Gmünd GmbH & Co. KG will not assume any<br />
liability.<br />
Preconditions <strong>and</strong> requirements to be met by the place of<br />
installation<br />
Single-bearing generators are mounted directly to the engine. These generators<br />
may only be mounted to engines which comply with the applicable regulations,<br />
rules <strong>and</strong> requirements.<br />
Two-bearing generators are usually installed right next to the engine. The<br />
generator has to be firmly <strong>and</strong> securely mounted on an absolutely flat base with<br />
a bearing capacity adequate to the weight class of the generator. When using a<br />
belt drive, it is advisable to mount the generator adjustable. For that purpose<br />
e.g. mounting rails can be used, providing the possibility of adjusting the belt<br />
tension.<br />
All generators are splash-proof according to IP54 specifications <strong>and</strong> can thus<br />
also be mounted <strong>and</strong> used outdoor. The generators are not explosion-protected<br />
<strong>and</strong> thus must no be used in explosive atmospheres. Further regulations on this<br />
have to be observed!<br />
