Indoor Installation

Exhaust gases from diesel engines are extremely poisonous.Whenever an engine is installed indoors the exhaust fumesmust be vented to the outside. The engine should be installedat least two feet from any outside wall. Using an exhaustpipe which is too long or too small can cause excessiveback pressure which will cause the engine to heat excessivelyand possibly burn the valves.

Mounting

The generator must be mounted on a solid foundation (suchas concrete) and set firmly on the foundation to isolatevibration of the generator when it is running. The generatormust set at least 6 inches above the floor or grade level (inaccordance to NFPA 110, Chapter 5-4.1). DO NOT removethe metal skids on the bottom of the generator. They are toresist damage to the bottom of the generator and to maintainalignment.

Pay close attention to ventilation when operating thegenerator inside tunnels and caves. The engine exhaustcontains noxious elements. Engine exhaust must be routedto a ventilated area.

DCA-25SSIU2 (50 HZ)— GENERAL INFORMATIONDCA-25SSIU2 (50 HZ) Series FamiliarizationGeneratorThe MQ Power Model DCA-25SSIU2 (50 Hz) is a 16 kWgenerator (Figure 5) that is designed as a high qualityportable (requires a trailer for transport) power source fortelecom sites, lighting facilities, power tools, submersiblepumps and other industrial and construction machinery.Engine Operating PanelThe “Engine Operating Panel” is provided with the following:

Tachometer Water Temperature Gauge Water Temperature Alarm Lamp Oil Pressure Gauge Oil Pressure Alarm Lamp Charging Ammeter Gauge Fuel Level Gauge Pre-heat Lamp Panel Light/Panel Light Switch Ignition Switch Fuel Filter Water Level Alarm Lamp

Generator Control PanelThe “Generator Control Panel” is provided with the following:

Frequency Meter (Hz) AC Ammeter (Amps) AC Voltmeter (Volts) Ammeter Change-Over Switch Voltmeter Change-Over Switch Voltage Regulator 3-Pole, 60 amp Main Circuit Breaker “Control Box” (located behind the Gen. Control Panel)

Automatic Voltage Regulator Current Transformer Over-Current Relay Voltage Rectifier Starter Relay Voltage Selector Switch

Output Terminal PanelThe “Output Terminal Panel” is provided with the following:

Three 100/200V output receptacles (CS-6369), 50A Three auxiliary circuit breakers, 50A Two 100V output receptacles (GFCI), 20A Two GFCI circuit breakers, 20A Five output terminal lugs (3Ø power) Battery Charger (Optional) Water Heater (Optional)

Open Delta Excitation SystemThe DCA-25SSIU2 (50 Hz)generator is equipped with thestate of the art "Open-Delta" excitation system. The opendelta system consist of an electrically independent windingwound among stationary windings of the AC output section.There are four connections of the open delta A, B, C and D.During steady state loads, the power from the voltage regulatoris supplied from the parallel connections of A to B, A to D,and C to D. These three phases of the voltage input to thevoltage regulator are then rectified and are the excitationcurrent for the exciter section.When a heavy load, such as a motor starting or a shortcircuit occurs, the automatic voltage regulator (AVR)switches the configuration of the open delta to the seriesconnection of B to C. This has the effect of adding the voltagesof each phase to provide higher excitation to the excitersection and thus better voltage response during theapplication of heavy loads.The connections of the AVR to the AC output windings arefor sensing only. No power is required from these windings.The open-delta design provides virtually unlimited excitationcurrent, offering maximum motor starting capabilities. Theexcitation does not have a "fixed ceiling" and respondsaccording the demands of the required load.

DCA-25SSIU2 (50 HZ)— LOAD APPLICATIONSingle Phase Load

Always be sure to check the nameplate on the generatorand equipment to insure the wattage, amperage, frequency,and voltage requirements are satisfactorily supplied by thegenerator for operating the equipment.

Generally, the wattage listed on the nameplate of theequipment is its rated output. Equipment may require 130—150% more wattage than the rating on the nameplate, asthe wattage is influenced by the efficiency, power factor andstarting system of the equipment.

Motors and motor-drivenequipment draw much greatercurrent for starting than duringoperation.

When connecting ordinary power tools, a capacity of up tothe generating set’s rated output (kW) multiplied by 0.8 canbe used.

If wattage is not given on theequipment's name plate,approximate wattage may bedetermined by multiplyingnameplate voltage by thenameplate amperage.

The power factor of this generator is 0.8. See Table 5 belowwhen connecting loads.

If 3Ø load (kVA) is not given onthe equipment nameplate,approximate 3Ø load outputmaybe determined by multiplyingvoltage by amperage by 1.732.

When connecting a resistance load such as anincandescent lamp or electric heater, a capacity of up tothe generating set’s rated output (kW) can be used.

When connecting a fluorescent or mercury lamp, acapacity of up to the generating set’s rated output (kW)multiplied by 0.6 can be used.

When connecting an electric drill or other power tools,pay close attention to the required starting currentcapacity.

NOTE

WATTS = VOLTAGE x AMPERAGE

Three Phase Load

When calculating the power requirements for 3-phase poweruse the following equation:

NOTE

An inadequate size connecting cable which cannot carry therequired load can cause a voltage drop which can burn outthe appliance or tool and overheat the cable. See Table 6.

NOTE

Before connecting this generator to any building’s electricalsystem, a licensed electrician must install an isolation(transfer) switch. Serious damage to the building’selectrical system may occur without this transfer switch.

Day-to-day addition of coolant is done from the recoverytank. When adding coolant to the radiator, DO NOT removethe radiator cap until the unit has completely cooled. SeeTable 10 for engine, radiator, and recovery tank coolantcapacities. Make sure the coolant level in the recovery tankis always between the "H" and the "L" markings.

Operation Freezing Weather

When operating in freezing weather, be certain the properamount of antifreeze (Table 11) has been added.

Cleaning the Radiator

The engine may overheat if the radiator fins becomeoverloaded with dust or debris. Periodically clean the radiatorfins with compressed air. Cleaning inside the machine isdangerous, so clean only with the engine turned off and thenegative battery terminal disconnected.

Air Cleaner

Periodic cleaning/replacement is necessary. Inspect it inaccordance with the Isuzu Engine Owner's Manual.

Fan Belt Tension

A slack fan belt may contribute to overheating, or toinsufficient charging of the battery. Inspect the fan belt fordamage and wear and adjust it in accordance with the IsuzuEngine Owner's Manual.

The fan belt tension is proper if the fan belt bends 10 to 15mm (Figure 37) when depressed with the thumb as shownbelow.

DCA-25SSIU2 (50 HZ)— MAINTENANCE

Service Daily

If the engine is operating in very dusty or dry grassconditions, a clogged air cleaner will result. This can lead toa loss of power, excessive carbon buildup in the combustionchamber and high fuel consumption. Change air cleanermore frequently if these conditions exists.

Fuel Addition

Add diesel fuel (the grade may vary according to seasonand locations).

Removing Water from the Fuel Tank

After prolonged use, water and other impurities accumulatein the bottom of the tank. Occasionally inspect the fueltank for water contamination and drain the contents ifrequired.

During cold weather, the more empty volume inside thetank, the easier it is for water to condense. This can bereduced by keeping the tank full with diesel fuel.

General Inspection

Prior to each use, the generator should be cleaned andinspected for deficiencies. Check for loose, missing ordamaged nuts, bolts or other fasteners. Also check for fuel,oil, and coolant leaks. Use Table 12 as a general maintenanceguidelineEngine Side (Refer to the Engine InstructionManual)

Air Cleaner

Every 250 hours: Remove air cleaner element and clean theheavy duty paper element with light spray of compressedair. Replace the air cleaner as needed.

Air Cleaner with Dust Indicator

This indicator is attached to the air cleaner. When the aircleaner element is clogged, air intake restriction becomesgreater and the dust indicator signal shows RED meaningthe element needs changing or service. After changing theair element, press the dust indicator button to reset theindicator.

This section is intended to provide the user with generictrailer service and maintenance information. The service andmaintenance guidelines referenced in this section refer to awide range of trailers.

Remember periodic inspection of the trailer will ensure safetowing of the generator and will prevent personal injury anddamage to the equipment.

The definitions below describe some of the major componentsof a typical trailer that would be used with the DCA-25SSIUWhisperwatt™ Generator.

1. Fuel Cell - Provides an adequate amount of fuel for theequipment in use. Fuel cells must be empty when trans-porting equipment.

2. Braking System - System employed in stopping thetrailer. Typical braking systems are electric, surge, hy-draulic, hydraulic-surge and air.

3. GVWR- Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) is themaximum number of pounds the trailer can carry, in-cluding the fuel cell (empty).

4. Frame Length - Measurement is from the ball hitch tothe rear bumper (reflector).

5. Frame Width - Measurement is from fender to fender

6. Jack Stand - Trailer support device with maximum poundrequirement from the tongue of the trailer.

7. Coupler - Type of hitch used on the trailer for towing.

8. Tire Size - Indicates the diameter of the tire in inches(10,12,14, etc.), and the width in millimeters(175,185,205, etc.). The tire diameter must match thediameter of the tire rim.

9. Tire Ply - The tire ply (layers) number is rated in letters;2-ply,4-ply,6-ply, etc.

DCA-25SSIU2 (50 HZ)— TRAILER MAINTENANCEHydraulic Surge BrakesHydraulic surge brakes (Figure 56) should not require anyspecial attention with the exception of routine maintenancesuch as shoe and lining replacement. Brake lines should beperiodically checked for cracks, kinks, or blockage.

Figure 56. Hydraulic Brake Components

BrakesTrailer brakes should be inspected the first 200 miles ofoperation. This will allow the brake shoes and drums to seatproperly. After the first 200 mile interval, inspect the brakesevery 3,000 miles. If driving over rough terrain, inspect thebrakes more frequently.

Figure 56 displays the major hydraulic surge brakecomponents that will require inspection and maintenance.Please inspect these components as required using steps 1through 8 and Table 13 as shown below:

Brake Adjustment

1. Place the trailer on jack stands. Make sure the jackstands are placed on secure level ground.

2. Check the wheel and drum for free rotation.

3. Remove the adjusting hole cover from the adjusting slotat the bottom brake backing plate.

4. With a screwdriver or standard adjusting tool, rotate thestar wheel of the adjuster assembly to expand the brakeshoes.

5. Adjust the brake shoes outward until the pressure of thelining against the wheel drum makes the wheel difficultto turn.

6. Adjust, rotate the star wheel in the opposite directionuntil the wheel rotates freely with slight lining drag.

7. Replace the adjusting hole cover and lower the trailer tothe ground.

8. Repeat steps 1 through 7 on the remaining brakes.

ActuatorHydraulic surge braking requires the installation of an actuatorat the tongue of the trailer. Remember the surge or push ofthe trailer toward the tow vehicle automatically synchronizesthe trailer brakes with the tow vehicle brakes. As the trailerpushes against the tow vehicle the actuator telescopestogether and applies force to the master cylinder, supplyinghydraulic pressure to the trailer brakes.

Periodically check and test the surge “actuator” to makesure that it is functioning correctly. Never use an undersizeactuator.
