2. GENERAL USAGE INFORMATION
2.1. For - Continuous service.
2.1.1. The generator set can used as main power supply to generate electricity for
several purposes, e.g. lighting, heating etc.
2.2. For - Standby service.
2.2.1. The generator set can used as standby power supply to provide continuous
electric power for variable loads.
2.2.2. The generator set is suitable for the areas where you must provide a
continuous power supply, such as hospitals, industrial facilities, airports etc.
2.3. For - Emergency service
2.3.1. The generator set can used as auxiliary power supply to solve energy
interruptions that may cause serious problems to people, physical and /or
financial damage or to face consumption peaks.
2.3.2. The generator can be setup to start quickly to provide electric power for
loads when the mains supply fails, and switch to stop after the mains supply
becomes normal. Generally the generator set can continue to run for several
hours.
2.4. Under loading of Diesel Generators.
2.4.1. What is under loading?
2.4.1.1. The running of any diesel engine with no load or very light loads. In
the industry this is also known as “wet-stacking”.
2.4.1.2. This can be due to facility or site managers not wanting to risk
interrupting daily business by transferring the true load to the generator,
or data centres wanting to protect their UPS battery warranty.
2.4.1.3. It could also be due to a generator being over specified when
purchased, or a company that has downsized their electrical
requirements.
2.4.2. Why is under loading a problem?
2.4.2.1. A diesel engine needs to operate under substantial load, to reach its
optimum operating temperature. If it fails to reach this temperature then
a percentage of the fuel will be unburnt and a build-up of soot can occur.
2.4.2.2. Within the engine, soot can cause internal glazing of the cylinder
bores, sticking of the piston rings, reducing compression and the injectors
are likely to have a build-up of carbon causing more unburnt fuel to pass
through the combustion chamber into the exhaust.
2.4.2.3. The first sign of this problem is heavy smoke from the exhaust,
eventually, the unburnt fuel will condense in the exhaust and mix with the
background
Page 14
soot, to create a thick dark liquid that looks like engine oil. This liquid will
seep from the exhaust, and will appear to be an oil leak. This liquid can
build up in the exhaust silencer and there is the risk of it igniting from the
increased heat of the exhaust fumes, if the generator is subsequently put
under full load.
2.4.2.4. If a generator continues to be operated with no load or very light load
there is a possibility that permanent engine damage can occur.
2.4.3. How to avoid under loading.
2.4.3.1. When specifying a new generator, ensure that the unit is adequate for
the requirement, without being too large.
2.4.3.2. If the machine is future proofed with additional capacity, or the
existing installation is over capacity, a load bank testing programme must
be implemented.
2.4.3.3. The load bank should be used to create an artificial demand for
between 75% and 100% of prime load and this, in most circumstances, will
burn off carbon deposits, prolonging the life of the generator.
2.4.3.4. Typically the generator should be run at 75% of prime power for 2
hours in every 100 hours use.
2.4.4. If you need any further clarification concerning generator under loading or
misuse please call our technical sales team.
3. MAIN PARTS
3.1. Diesel Engine.
3.1.1. According to the different output power of each of our generator sets, we
combine it with the best model of diesel engine to give the range of output
power.
3.1.2. HYUNDAI Power chooses the diesel engines with first class performance and
high reliability.
3.1.3. HYUNDAI Power also pay special attention to the technical advantage of
engines in all aspects with a view to reduce exhaust gas emission, decrease fuel
consumption rate and good noise level control.
3.2. Alternators.
3.2.1. Our alternators are single bearing self‐excitation brushless alternators and
have the following features;
3.2.1.1. Four polar brushless self‐excitation, single bearing with insulation
class H and protection level is IP22.
3.2.1.2. Stators are wound to 2/3 pitch, which effectively eliminates/curbs triple
waveform deformation of output voltage.
3.2.1.3. When in parallel with the mains or other generator sets, this type of
winding can effectively avoid excessive neutral currents and reduces
inductive heat.
background
Page 15
3.2.1.4. Before being assembled, the rotors need to pass dynamic balance
testing. The improved damper reduces voltage deviation and heat under
unstable load.
3.2.1.5. The exciter rotor output is fed to the main rotor through a three
phase full wave bridge rectifier, the rectifier is protected by a surge
suppressor against surges caused by short circuit or out‐of‐phase
paralleling.
3.2.1.6. The Automatic voltage regulator has the feature of automatic load
curtailment which is used to protect the engine, and make it possible to
add full load to the alternator at one time. Steady state voltage adjusting
rate can reach ±1% (under certain requirements, steady state voltage
adjusting rate can meet ±0.5%). If PMG system is chosen, the motor will
have high starting capacity and the ability of interference rejection for the
deformed voltage waveform fed by the main stator generated by non‐
linear load(such as silicon control DC electric motor, UPS etc.).

5.2.5. Users can transport the generator set according to the guidance specified on
the specific labels found on the generator set.
5.2.6. Please DO NOT use the lifting lugs on the engine or on the alternator to hoist
the whole generator set.
5.3. Design for the foundation.
5.3.1. The foundation which will be used to install and fix the diesel generator set is
very important, it must conform to the following requirements:
5.3.1.1. Have enough hardness and stability, so that to avoid deformation,
which will affect the stability of the diesel engine and alternator and other
accessory parts.
5.3.1.2. To support the weight of the whole generator set and to absorb the
dynamic impact caused by unbalanced force and vibration during engine’s
running period.
5.3.1.3. Generator set’s foundation is not allowed to connect to other
architecture’s foundation.
5.3.1.4. The width and depth of foundation shall meet the whole
requirements.
5.3.1.5. Make sure the foundation is smooth and level.

background
Page 24
5.3.1.10. For the foundation design see illustration below.
5.4. Design for Generator Set Working Room.
5.4.1. The complete installation of generator set shall be designed to conform to all
applicable building and any other applicable regulations, so that it also meets
the demands of operation and planned maintenance.
5.4.2. You must make sure that diesel engine generator set working room is
rainproof and windproof.
5.4.3. You must make sure that diesel engine generator set working room has
adequate ventilation and suitable exhaust system, at the same time use pipes
to exhaust the hot air generated from the radiator and prevent the hot air from
returning.
5.4.4. You must make sure that you reduce harmful emission to environment.
5.4.5. The silencer and exhaust pipe shall be supported by the roof, the support
method shall allow the exhaust pipe to expand.
5.4.6. It is not permitted to install the exhaust system directly on the generator set.
5.4.7. Enough space shall be reserved for the diesel generator set for convenience
of cooling, operation and maintenance etc.
5.4.8. The generator space shall remain free of all materials not required for
generator. The free space around and above the generator will be 1.5 metres
and 2 metres above.
5.4.9. The generator set room must have a suitable, available fire extinguisher
which must which must conform to the specified standard.
5.4.10. Emergency lighting facilities shall be installed in the generator set working
room for the convenience of operation and maintenance.
background
Page 25
5.4.11. No combustible and explosive materials are allowed to be placed in the
generator set room.
5.5. Installation of the Generator Set.
Canopied generator sets are weather-proof but not water-proofed. Ideally
they should be housed in a structure which must be suitable to protect the
generator set from the worst of the weather. The structure must have
adequate ventilation, and a correctly installed exhaust system and at least
1.5 metre clearance around the generator set to allow for maintenance and
servicing purposes.
5.5.1. Decide on the position of generator set
5.5.2. Use the section 5.3. Design for the foundation to correctly for correct
foundation installation.
N.B. This is for guidance only for exact calculation you must use a Structural Engineer.
5.5.3. Use expansion bolts to tightly fix the generator set to the concrete
foundation through the installation holes on the base frame.
5.5.4. Vibration reduction units have been installed on our generator sets.
5.6. Ventilation.
5.6.1. When a generator set has been installed in its final location, provision must
be made to discharge the hot air to outside and allow cold air to enter from the
outside, and avoid the hot air returning into the room.
5.6.2. The diagram below shows example of ventilation air flow. The purpose of this
arrangement is to get cold air from the lowest point as much as possible, and
allow heat/hot air from the engine and generator to be vented and cold air
drawn in.
5.7. Exhaust.
When more than one generator set is installed, you must make sure each
machine has separate exhaust.
Serious damage will occur if rain or condensed water is allowed to enter the
exhaust system. One water discharge opening shall be installed in the long
exhaust pipe and positioned close to the generator set.
background
Page 26
If the end of the exhaust pipe is above the height of the building
then lightning protection will be required and bonded to the ground.
5.7.1. Our standard configuration diesel generator sets can be provided with
accessories such as heavy duty silencer, soft corrugated pipe and elbow etc. 5.7.2.
Users can design the exhaust system of generator set working room by
themselves.
5.7.3. When designing and installing the exhaust system, please consider the
following aspects:
5.7.3.1. Ensure the total exhaust back pressure no higher than the maximum
allowed value specified by the engine (usually generator set’s maximum
exhaust back pressure is no more than 5Kpa).
5.7.3.2. Fix the exhaust system to make sure the exhaust manifold and turbo‐
charger are not subject to the vertical pressure and side stress.
5.7.3.3. Allow for hot shrinkage and cold expansion.
5.7.3.4. Allow enough space for generator set vibration.
5.7.3.5. Reduce exhaust noise level.
5.7.3.6. Overload of exhaust backpressure will cause following adverse effect:
5.7.3.6.1. Loss of output power.
5.7.3.6.2. Reduced fuel efficiency.
5.7.3.6.3. A rise in exhaust gas temperature.
5.7.4. In the exhaust system, soft corrugated pipe shall be used to connect the
exhaust pipe with the turbocharger, this pipe has three functions as follows:
5.7.4.1. Separate the diesel engine with vibration and the weight of exhaust
pipe.
5.7.4.2. Compensate the heat expansion of exhaust pipe.
5.7.4.3. If the diesel generator set is installed on the anti‐vibration base frame,
the corrugated pipe will compensate for side-ways movement whilst
engine is starting or stopping.
5.7.5. Noise reduction
5.7.5.1. When diesel generator set is running, normally it will generate noise
level of equal to or below 96dB. Note the larger the load, the higher the
noise level.
5.7.5.2. In order to meet the noise level standards established by the local
environment regulations and to prevent the noise pollution, which will
affect people’s normal life. It is then very important to further reduce
the noise level of diesel generator by having it inside a suitable room.
5.7.5.3. When planning noise reduction you must fully consider the bottom
limit of air inlet/outlet volume needed by engine’s normal running and the
maximum allowed value for exhaust backpressure etc. Otherwise, the
noise reduction method can seriously affect generator set’s output power,
it will make generator the set’ s temperature rise, and cause frequent
malfunction of the generator set, and can even shorten the generators life
expectancy.

5.8. Cooling system.
You should NOT allow the radiator to become blocked with debris, it will
greatly affect radiator’s cooling capacity. It is therefore necessary to flush and
clean the radiator at regular intervals.
5.8.1. Our standard configured diesel generator sets are fitted with closed cycling
water chilling units with fan and radiator installed.
5.8.2. Closed water chilling engine drive the cooling pump to generate coolant
circulation, which keeps the anti‐freeze in a continuous flow through the
cylinder body which in turn will reduce heat.
5.8.3. The engine’s cooling pump, radiator (or heat exchanger) forms a closed loop,
pressure cycling and cooling system.
5.8.4. The most common cooling system is the cooling fan mounted directly in
front of the radiator, which is driven by the engine This can be replaced by a heat
exchanger, remote radiator or remote cooling tower etc.
5.8.5. If the installation position of the remote cooling fan is higher, then a
transmission radiator is needed to prevent damage to the heat exchanger
which can be caused by internal pressure being too high.
5.9. Coolant.
5.9.1. Cooling system must use a coolant which can protect the engine from
contamination and freezing.
5.9.2. Coolant must be a mixture of pure water and anti‐freeze or pure water and
anti‐rust fluid.
5.9.3. In this mixture, the water PH value shall be between 6
~
8, which usually
suggest to use distilled water.
5.9.4. The specific mixing ratio shall be according to local weather, and that of the
coolant recommended by the engine supplier, and reference to the operation
(preparation) manual of the coolant. Mix the liquids in separate containers
evenly and then add the mixture into the radiator, make sure that the anti‐
freeze will not freeze under low temperature.
5.9.5. In the areas where there is no possibility of freezing, the coolant can be a
mixture of water and anti‐rust, according to the anti‐rust which recommended
by the engine supplier and refer to its operation manual, mix the liquids in a
separate container evenly and then add the mixture into the radiator.
5.9.6. The first time anti-rust is added, you should keep the generator running until
it gets hot enough to achieve the best anti-corrosion affects.
5.9.7. Engine coolant has three functions;
5.9.7.1. Provide enough heat transmission.
5.9.7.2. Prevent all metal and sealing materials within the cooling system from
corrosion.
5.9.7.3. Provide sufficient anti‐freeze capacity.
background
Page 28
5.10. Changing Coolant.
Only use approved anti-freeze and mixed to the correct ratio.
Using poor quality products can shorten the life of the engine and
may cause early degradation of hose and seals. This will damage be
outside of the warranty. Coolant should be 33% of the total volume of
cooling liquid.
5.10.1. The effectiveness of anti‐freeze and anti-rust will decrease over time and will
need to be changed periodically.
5.10.2. YOU MUST change it regularly and should be changed in every two years or
2000 hours.
5.10.3. The anti‐rust mixture should be changed at least once every year. And if a
coolant filter is installed it should be changed in every 6 months (please refer to
the engine operation manual for the specific intervals of the changes required).
5.10.4. When it is time to change the coolant, make sure the generator set has been
shut down and the engine has been allowed to fully cool down, then open the
radiator cap then open the radiator drain valve.
5.10.5. If the generator set is fitted with a coolant filter, it should be changed at the
same time.
5.11. Cleaning of the cooling system.
If the cooling system is cleaned periodically, you need only to rinse with small
amount of additives or clean water.
The air discharge valve in the engine body shall be located in the top point of
the water path or near the thermostat, water temperature sensor, or you can
loosen the water temperature sensor and re‐tighten it when you see coolant
run out of it so that it shows all air has been discharged.
5.11.1. When it is time to change the coolant, the radiator and cooling system will
require cleaning, the suggested cleaning procedures are as follows:
5.11.1.1. Empty the cooling system.
5.11.1.2. Use clean water to rinse cooling system.
5.11.1.3. Mix 15% to 20% of condensed coolant to the cooling system, then run
the generator set for once or twice (depending on amount of
contamination) then discharge the coolant.
5.11.1.4. Once empty the cooling system can be re-filled with the normal
mixture to rinse.
5.11.1.5. If contamination still exists, then repeat the cleaning procedure until
all contamination is cleared from the system.
5.11.1.6. Before adding coolant to the coolant system, please make sure the
radiator‘s discharge valve and the engine’s discharge valve are tightly
closed.
5.11.1.7. Add the coolant to the system to avoid air lock being formed in the
system.
5.11.1.8. Air shall be discharged through the adding hole or the discharge valve
in the engine body.
background
Page 29
5.11.1.9. If a cooling system pre-heater is fitted, the control valve for the
heater should be opened. To make sure the system is fully vented when
adding the coolant.
5.11.1.10. After the system has been fully cleaned and rinsed, add fresh coolant
which has been mixed according to specified proportions, 33% antifreeze.
Fill to 50mm from the top of the filling point. Run the engine and pre-
heater (if fitted) recheck level and top up as required.
5.12. Oil Lubrication system.
It is important to use quality lubricant oil with proper viscosity and which
conform to the engine’s specification.
We recommend that a high quality multi grade SAE 15W40 high service
engine oil in diesel engine is used.
Periodically change the lubrication oil and oil filter so that the generator set
maintains normal working.
Any malfunctions caused by wrong type of lubricating oil with low quality or
long time periods between oil and oil filter change will be outside the scope
of warranty.
5.12.1. Lubrication system is comprised of oil pan, oil pump, strainer, oil pipe, oil
cooling unit, oil filter unit, and all the moving parts of the engine
5.12.2. The main purpose of the lubrication system is to provide sustained tempered
oil film between all moving parts to reduce friction and wear, and to draw heat
away from those moving parts.
5.12.3. Coat mechanical parts to improve sealing effect and prevention of rust on
surfaces.
5.12.4. Check the maintenance schedule to determine the oil change periods.
5.12.5. The first oil change is normally done within 100 hours from when the
generator set first started.
5.13. Fuel System.
5.13.1. The fuel oil specification for a specific engine can be found by referring to the
manufacturers’ data sheets.
5.13.2. The generator set requires fresh diesel fuel without air and water and with
proper pressure, of which all kinds of parameters such as sulphur content etc.
shall meet national standards, and end use temperature grade to meet the
requirement of customer’s working environment.
5.13.3. Generally generator set’s fuel system includes two parts, that is, engine’s fuel
system and an external fuel system.
5.13.4. We are only responsible for the engines fuel system which includes fuel tank
and connecting fuel pipes etc.
5.14. Fuel Tank.

5.16. Fuel SYSTEM.
When adding fuel to the fuel tank, you must make sure the generator
set has been stopped. You will need to prime the diesel pump before
attempting to start the machine.
Allow the fuel to settle before the generator set is re-started. This will
avoid any debris/foreign materials getting sucked into the diesel fuel
supply hose, which will cause blockages in the fuel filter and failure to
supply engine with sufficient fuel, which in turn will decrease the
output power.
Any malfunction caused by bad quality of fuel is not in the scope of
the warranty.
5.16.1. The content of the diesel fuel plays a very critical role in diesel engine’s
performance, life expectancy and the content of discharged material.
5.16.2. In order to achieve the rated power, fuel economy and specified emission
standard, only use the fuel which is referred to in international standard or
national standard.
5.16.3. The parameters of diesel fuel include low temperature feature, sulphur
content, specific gravity, water content and foreign material content shall be
the first priority when user need to choose the quality of the fuel.
5.16.4. Poor quality fuel will directly affect diesel generator set’s start, lubrication,
output power, discharge, and fuel filter change cycle etc.

6.11. Warnings for mis-use.
DO NOT allow the generator set to run with overload for long periods,
otherwise malfunction will occur, this will decrease the generator set’s
life expectancy.
It is forbidden to remove or change any of the generator set
components when it is running.
Any coolant which is going to be added needs to be of the same
specification as that of the original cooling system. When opening the
radiator cover. You MUST pay attention to the possible coolant high
temperature to avoid the steam burns to the user or bystanders.
When emptying high temperature lubricant oil, you MUST avoid being
burnt.
The fuel being used shall be conform to national standard, otherwise
it will cause malfunction of the engine’s fuel pump or fuel injector.
For engines fitted with a turbo‐charger, it is advisable NOT to add
50% or above instant load to the generator set. Otherwise this will
cause the generator set to stall.
For electrically large consumption equipment, it is suggested that the
users need to use methods such as voltage decrease and frequency
change etc. to control the start, to reduce huge impact on the
generator set when starting such loads.
It is suggested that backup generators or generator sets which haven’t
been run for a long time shall be run up to working temperature at
least once a month. This of generator set need to be continuously run
with full load for 4 hours at least one time per year.
background
Page 38
For generator sets which are connected in parallel and controlled by
manually by operators must make sure they are running
synchronously (same frequency, same phase‐sequence, same phase,
and same voltage) before switching on. All loads MUST be switched
off before trying to stop the parallel generator groups. During the
parallel generator group running, you MUST remain alert to individual
generators stopping so as to avoid the parallel generator group
stopping.
6.12. Control system operation.
6.12.1. Generator control panel operation

by coolant temperature. Usually water pre‐heater completes in about 60
seconds, air intake pre‐heater completes 10 seconds. After preheating the
LCD puts out and the engine begins to start. It will attempt to start again
about 5 seconds later if the engine fails to start.
6.12.2.7. After the engine starts successfully, allow the engine to warm up for
about 5 minutes. If the engine does not fire during the pre‐set number of
attempts to start (start attempts number: 3 times), the Alarm LCD would
flash. If you need to restart, wait at least 30 seconds before the retry.
6.12.2.8. Check the reading of voltage & frequency meter.
6.12.2.9. Once the generator set is running at the correct voltage, frequency and at
operating temperature the main circuit breaker can be switched “ON”.

7.2.2.3. Fuel pump oil change.
7.2.2.4. All engine oil filters, diesel filters and air filter changed.
7.2.2.5. Load test at rated load if possible and run for 2 hours at 50%+ load.
General all round inspection - advice any potential issues.
7.2.3. Every 1000 hours, estimated time: 4 hours, parts - oil filters, diesel filters, air
filter.
7.2.3.1. As above 6.2.1./6.2.2. plus,
7.2.3.2. Adjust valve clearances.
7.2.4. Every 2 years or 2000 hours.
7.2.4.1. Replace coolant mixture. Replace fan belts.
7.2.4.2. Check and replace any rubber hoses if required.
7.2.4.3. If the generator is being run under a very light load for most of the
time, it may require load testing on a more frequent basis. IMPORTANT
see section 2.4. Under loading of Diesel Generators.
7.3. Alternator.
7.3.1. Periodically clean the inside and outside of the alternator, the frequency of
cleaning depends on the generator set’s ambient environment.
7.3.2. When the cleaning becomes necessary, following procedures can be
followed;
7.3.2.1. Isolate the battery to prevent accidental starting, remove all other
sources of power.
7.3.2.2. Wipe off the dirt, contaminant, oil stain, water or any other liquid
from the surface.
7.3.2.3. Remove any dust, dirt and debris form the ventilation mesh grille.
7.3.2.4. Remove any dust, dirt and debris from the coils and connections.
Dust, dirt and debris can cause the coils to overheat or damage the
insulation.
7.3.2.5. All dust, dirt and debris contamination needs to be collected by dust
collector. DO NOT use air blowers or high pressure water spray to clean
the alternator. The use of liquids inside the alternator will increase the
humidity inside the alternator and will decrease the insulation resistance.
If there is excessive humidity inside the alternator it must be correctly
dried to raise the insulation resistance to an acceptable limit. Ideally the
background
Page 44
insulation resistance would be infinity, however a resistance value of
greater than 2 MΩ would be acceptable anything lower would require
further investigation.
7.4. Control panel.
7.4.1. Daily maintenance for the control panel should be carried out to make sure
that the external surface is clear of any dust, dirt or debris. Make sure that
all of the indicators are clear and easy to read, and that the operation
buttons give a reliable flexible.
7.4.2. When the generator set is running, vibration will cause parts to become
loose, you must periodically check the instruments of the control panel and
parts and cable’s connections are secure.
7.4.3. It is NOT recommend that the user attempts to repair the control panel. It is
advised that if the control panel fails to function correctly you contact your
dealer.
7.5. Battery.
7.5.1. The generator set is fitted with a sealed lead acid battery/ies.
7.5.2. Batteries which have been stored for a long time should be properly charged
before being used.
7.5.3. Batteries with low voltage will not be able to start the generator correctly.
7.5.4. In extreme cold conditions the battery will not be able to deliver its full
potential. If you need to start the generator in cold weather it is advisable to
remove the battery and move to a warm area and allow the battery to warm up
naturally to ambient temperature ideally above 10°C.

10. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS WITH OPTIONAL ATS EQUIPMENT
An Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) is an electrical device that can automatically switch a load
between two sources. Some transfer switches are manual (MTS), in these installations the
operator manually transfers the load to a different source by means of a switch, while others are
automatic and switch to an alternative source of power when they sense one of the power
sources has been lost. Typically the when the mains supply fails the standby power source
(generator) is brought on-line and supplies your electrical system. Once the mains is restored the
ATS wil transfer the load back to the mains and will do a timed shutdown of the generator.
10.1. All electrical installations should be carried out by a competent person as described in, and in
accordance with;
10.1.1. BS7671:2008 Requirements for Electrical Installations
