Air Intake and
Exhaust System
1-15.2 The engine exhaust gases
are released into the
turbocharger.
The exhaust gases
drive the turbocharger forcing
large amounts of air into the
intake manifold.
After passing
through the turbocharger, the
exhaust gases are channeled into
the muffler that deadens the
sound of the exhaust gases.
The
gases pass from the muffler
through the muffler outlet and
are vented upward from the
generator set housing.
1-15.3
Cold outside
temperatures make starting the
engine difficult.
To improve
engine starting, a cold weather
starting aid has been provided
that features an ether injection
system.
Ether is injected into
the combustion chamber when the
ETHER switch is ON and the
MASTER SWITCH is in the START
position.

OUTPUT SUPPLY SYSTEM.
1-16.1
The Output Supply System
(FIGURE 1-8) consists primarily
of the AC generator, the output
load terminal board, the voltage
reconnection terminal board, the
AM-VM transfer switch and the AC
circuit interrupter relay.
Power created by the AC
generator is supplied through
the voltage reconnection
terminal board and the AC
circuit interrupter relay to the
output load terminals on the
output load terminal board.
The
voltage reconnection terminal
board allows configuration of
the generator set for 120/208
volt connections or 240/416 volt
connections.
1-16.2 The AC CIRCUIT
INTERRUPTER switch closes and
opens the AC circuit interrupter
relay.
This enables or
interrupts the power flow
between the voltage reconnection
terminal board and the output
load terminals.
The AC circuit
interrupter relay is also opened
