LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION OF MAJOR COMPONENTS.
NOTE
All locations (Figure 1-30) referenced herein are given facing the control box side
(rear) of the generator set.
1.17.1
COMMUNICATION RECEPTACLE (1). The COMMUNICATION RECEPTACLE is used to
connect a remote PC to the DCS control box to facilitate remote operation and monitoring of the
generator set.
1.17.2
PARALLELING RECEPTACLE (2). The PARALLELING RECEPTACLE is used to connect the
paralleling cable between two generator sets of the same size and mode to operate in parallel.
1.17.3
CONVENIENCE RECEPTACLE (3). The CONVENIENCE RECEPTACLE is a 120VAC receptacle
use to operate small plug-in type equipment.
1.17.4
DCS Control Panel Assembly (4). The DCS control panel is located at the rear of the generator set and
contains the CIM, switches, and connectors used to control and monitor generator set operation.
1.17.5
Computer Interface Module (CIM) (5). The CIM is located in the DCS control box and contains
controls and indicators for operating the generator set.
1.17.6
Air Cleaner Assembly (6). The air cleaner assembly is located on the left side behind the AIR
CLEANER ACCESS door. It consists of a dry-type, disposable paper filter and canister. The air
cleaner assembly features a dust collector which traps large dust particles. The air cleaner assembly
has a restriction indicator which will pop up during operation when the air cleaner requires servicing.
1.17.7
AC Generator (7). The AC generator is a single bearing, drip-proof, synchronous, brushless, three
phase, air-cooled generator. The generator is coupled directly to the rear of the diesel engine.
1.17.8
Fuel Drain Valve (8). The fuel drain valve is located on the left side of the skid base. It allows
personnel to drain the fuel tank for maintenance.
1.17.9
Fuel Tank (9). The 23 gallon (87.05 liter) fuel tank is located in the front of the generator set below the
engine and between the skid base members. The fuel tank has sufficient capacity to enable the
generator set to operate for at least 8 hours without refueling.
1.17.10
DEAD CRANK Switch (10). The DEAD CRANK switch is located in the engine compartment on the
left side. The switch allows the engine to be turned over without starting for maintenance purposes.
1.17.11
Muffler (11). The muffler and exhaust tubing are connected to the turbocharger on the engine. The
exhaust exits from the top of the generator set housing. Gases are exhausted upward.
1.17.12
Radiator (12). The radiator is located at the front of the generator set. It acts as a heat exchanger for
engine coolant.
1.17.13
Fan Belt (13). The fan belt is located in the engine compartment on the front of the engine. The belt
drives the fan, water pump, and battery charging alternator.
1.17.14
Oil Drain Valve (14). The oil drain valve is located at the front of the skid base. It allows personnel to
drain engine oil for maintenance.
