All in- dicators, control switches/buttons and graphical display are located on the face of the control panel as illustrated in Figure 3-1. This section covers prestatt checks, starting and stopping and operating the generator set. Each op- erator should read through this entire section before they attempt to start the generator sot. Itis essential that the operator be completely familiar with the generator set and the control panel. Refer to Sec- tion 6 for operating recommendations, PRESTART CHECKS. Before starting, be sure the following checks have been made and the unit is ready for operation. Lubrication Check the engine oil level. Keep the oil level near as Possible to the dipstick high mark without overfiling, Coolant Check the engine coolant level. Refer to Section 5. Fuel Make sure the fuel tanks have sufficient fuel and that fuel system is primed. Check to make sure there are no leaks and that all fittings are tight. Exhaust Check to make sure entire exhaust system is tight, that no combustible materials are near system, and gases are discharged away from building openings. EXHAUST GAS IS DEADLY! Exhaust yases contain carbon monoxide, an odorless and colorless gas. Carbon ‘monoxide is poisonous and can cause unconsciousness and death. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning can include: © Dizziness * Nausea © Headache * Weakness and Sleepiness © Throbbing in Temples © Muscular Twitching © Vomiting © Inability to Think Coherentiy IF YOU GR ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCE ANY OF THESE SYMPTOMS, GETOUT INTO THE FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY. If symptoms persist, seek medical atten- tion. Shut down the unit and do not operate until it has been inspected and repeired. Protection against carbon monoxide inhalation includes proper installation and ‘regular, frequent visual and audible inspections of the complete exhaust system. 34 CONTROL PANEL POWER ON/OFF MODES: ‘The power on/off modes of the control panel and op- erating software are Power On, Screen Saver and Sleep/Awake. Power On Mode: In this mode, power is continu- ously supplied to the control panel. The controls operating software and control panel LEDs/graphi- cal display will remain active until the Screen Saver mode is activated. ‘Screen Saver Made: Power to the graphical dis- play will be removed after 10 minutes (generator set not running or running). The 10 minute timer resets and begins after each control panel action (any but- ton or switch selection) or signal received by the op- erating software. The bottom LEDs of the Analog AC Metering Panel (bar graphs) may remain on dur- ing Screen Saver mode, indicating that the operat- ing software is active (Awake mode). When a ‘Waming” signel is sensed by the PCC (for example, low coolant temp), the control will display the waming message. The control will remain active until the Fault Acknowledge button is pressed to clear the waming message and start the 10 minute timer. ‘Sleep/Awake Mode: In the Sleep mode, the con- trol's operating software is inactive and the LEDs and the graphical display on the control panel are all 3-2 off. Sleep mode is a feature that is used to reduce battery power consumption when the control is in the Auto mode and is not being used. When all conditions are met (i.., no unacknow!- ‘edged faults, Screen Saver Mode is active, and O/ Manual/Auto switch is in the Auto position) the ‘Sleep mode will be activated. ‘The operating software is initialized and the control panel LEDs and graphical display is turned on in re- sponse to one of the following: ‘* moving/pressing any control panel switch/but- ton. ‘© a remote start input signal (generator set in Auto mode), or ‘© customer fault 2 or 8 only (shutdown or waming indicator is on). To activate the control and view the menu display without starting the generator set, press any button ‘on the control panel. The InPower service tool is required to enable or disable the Sleep mode. When shipped from the factory, the Sleep mode is disabled, When disabled, the operating software will always temain active (Awake modo) when tho control ic in Auto modo. InPower service tool is required to select desired mode. Contact an authorized service center for as- sistance.

DISPLAY ‘SWITCH FIGURE 3-1. CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY (FULL-FEATURED) CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY The control panel assembly (Figure 3-1) consist of two panels, the Operator Panel and the Switch Pan- el. Dependent on site requirements, the Operator Pan- @/ can be mounted on the control panel assembly (full-featured) as shown in Figure 3-1 or contained in a separate enclosure and mounted remotely of the control panel assembly. ‘The function of several buttons on the operator pan- el will vary dependent on the location of the operator panel (remote ot local of the control panel assem- bly). If the function differs, it is noted as either “re- mote” or “local operator panel” in the button de- scription. Operator Panel The operator panel contains the following compo- nents: Analog AC Metering Panel: This panel simulta- neously displays 3-phase line to line AC volts and current, kW, power factor and frequency. ‘The meter panel is composed of a series of LEDs, that are configured in bar graphs for each function. The LEDs are color ccded, with green indicating normal range values, amber for warming levels and red for shutdown conditions, ‘Scales for each function are in % of nominal values. Resolution is 1% for values close to nominal, and in- creases at values further from nominal. Graphical Display: The graphical display is capa- ble of displaying up to S-lines of data with approxi- mately 27 characters per line. The display is used to view the menus of the menu-driven operating sys- tem. Refer to the menu trees later in this section. ‘The display is also used to show waming and shut- down messages/error codes, modes of operation (Figure 3-3) and systerr actions, such as Waming, Derate, Shutdown, etc. Display Menu Selection Buttons: Six momentary buttons—three on eact side of the graphical dis- play window—are used to navigate through the sys- tem control menus and to adjust generator set pa- rameters. The button is active when the message adjacent to the button is highlighted (displayed in in- verse video). ‘Switch Panel The switch panel contains the following compo- nents: Emergency Stop Button: Push the button in for emergency shutdown of the engine. If the engine is not running, pushing the button in will prevent the starting of the engine, regardless of the start signal source (local or remote). To res 1. Pull the button out. 2. Move the O/Manual/Auto switch to 0. 8. Press the front panel Fault Acknowledge button. 4, Return 0/Manual/Auto switch to desired position. Remote Start Indicator: This green lamp is lit whenever the control is receiving a remote run sig- nal. When flashing, indicates a load demand stop mode. Not in Auto Indicator: Thie red lamp flachee con- tinuously when the O/Manual/Auto switch is not in the Auto position. (if in Auto position and lamp is flashing, service is required.) ‘Shutdown Status Indicator: This red lamp is tit whenever the control detects a shutdown condition. ‘The generator set can not be started when this lamp is on. After the condition is corrected, shutdown in- dicators can be reset by turing the O/Manual/Auto switch to the 0 position, and pressing the Fault Ac- knowledge button. Dependent upon the specific fault that occurs, the engine may or may not shut down immediately. A fault that could cause engine damage, causes an immediate engine shutdown (bypasses engine cool-down sequence). All other faults would allow the engine to run during the cool-down sequence before engine shutdown. In this case, the Shutdown Status Indicator blinks during the cooldown period. Warning Status indicator: This yellow lamp is it whenever the control detects a warning condition. After the condition is corrected, waming indicators can be reset by pressing the Fault Acknowledge button. (Itis not necessary to stop the generator set if the fault becomes inactive during genset opera- tion.) Fault Acknowledge: Press this button to acknowl ‘edge waming and shutdown messages after the fault has been corrected, To acknowledge a Warning message, the O/Manu- al/Auto switch can be in any position. (itis not nec- essary to stop the generator set to acknowledge an inactive Warming condition.) To acknowledge a shutdown message with this button, the 0/Manual/ Auto switch must be in the 0 (off) position. This bution is also used to blink a fault code if the ‘Shutdown or Waming Status Indicator is lit. (This function is used when the control does not contain a graphical display.) Refer to Reading Fault Codes in this section, which describes how to use this button for interpreting fault codes, Panel Lamp/Lamp Test Button: Press this button to tum on or off the panel lamp, Press and hold down this button for three seconds or more to turn all. contro! panel LEDs on to make sure all lamps ilu- minate. The illumination will shut off after releasing button. Exercise Button: Press this button to initiate a pre- programmed exercise sequence. The O/Manual/ ‘Auto switch is used in conjunction with this button to enable this funotion (refer to Exercise Start in this section). Manual Run/Stop Button: This button starts and stops the set locally and will bypass Time Delay to Start and Stop sequences. The O/Manual/Auto switch must be in the Manual position to enable this button. OManual/Auto Switch: The Manual position en- abies the use of the switch panel Manual Run/Stop button, Auto position enables start/stop control of the en- gine from a remote location. (It disables the use of the switch panel Manual Run'Stop button.) 0 (off) position. prevents the starting of the genera- tor set (local or remote). If moved to 0 during gener- ator set operation, will cause an immediate engine ‘shutdown (bypasses cool-down timers). This hot ‘shutdown should be avoided, if possible, to help prolong the life of the generator set. Hot shutdowns are logged by the system software. STARTING The following headings cover the systems used to start the generator set. Figure 3-2 provides a flow chart for each of the three startrun/stop sequences. With the optional Power Transter Control (PTC) fea- ture installed, the function and sequence of opera- tion for the Start command differs due to the transfer and retranster of load. Refer to “Optional Power Transfer Control (PTC) Operation” in this section for the startirun/stop PTC sequences. Before starting the generator set, make sure that exhaust and fuel fitings are tight and that proper maintenance has been performed. See Prestart Checks in this section. Starting at Switch Panel (Manual Mode) Move the 0/Manual/Auto switch to the Manual pos! tion and press the Manual Run/Stop button. This will activate the engine control system and the start- ing system. The starter will begin cranking, and af- ter a few seconds the engine will start and the start- er will disconnect. in the Manual position, the control will not complete the time delay to start or time delay to stop (Figure 3-2), but will complete the warm-up at idle and cool- down at rated/idle. (See Table 3-4 for PTC se- quence of operation.) When the coolant reaches operating temperature or the warm-up at idle time delay is reached (0 to 300 seconds), whichever occurs first, the generator set will ramp to rated speed and voltage. 36 PTC - To manually transfer load between the utility and the genset during genset operation, refer to Transfer Control (PWR TRAN} Submenu in this sec- tion. If the engine does not start, the starter will disen- gage after a specified period of time and the control will indicate an overcrank shutdown, The generator set can be coniigured for a number of starting cycles (1 to 7) with sat times for crank and rest periods. Default setting is for 3 start cycles ‘composed of 15 seconds of cranking, and 15 seo- onds of rest. ‘The InPower service tool is required to change the number of crank cycles, and the crank and rest ‘times. Contact an authorized service center for as- sistance. To clear a Fail To Start shutdown, place the O/Manu- al/Auto switch in the 0 position and press the Fault Acknowledge button. Before attempting to restart, wait two or more minutes for the starter motor to 00! and then repeat the starting procedure. If the engine does not run after a second attempt, refer to the Troubleshooting section. Starting at Remote Operator Panel (Auto Mode) When the operator panel is mounted remotely of the control panel assembly, the Slart button of the Con- trol submenu can also be used to start the generator set. The function of this Start button is identical to the following Starting from Remote Location de- scription. Refer to page 3-21 for Control Submenu description. ‘The O/Manual/Auto switch must be in the Auto posi- tion to activate the Remote Menu Buttons of the Con- trol submenu, Starting from Remote Location (Switch or Device) (Auto Mode) Place the O/Manual/Auto switch in the Auto posi- tion. This allows the generator set to be started from a remote switch or device (e.g., transfer switch or the optional Power Transfer Control feature). With the PTC feature installed, the Remote Start in- put (TB8-4/5) will function as a Test mode switch for the PTC. The PTC Test sequence is shown in Table 3-3 (Exercise). The installation manual describes how to enable test “with load” or “without load”, There are two start modes that are selectable for the remote start input, one for non-emergency start and the other for emergency start. In the non-emer- gency mode, the contro’ will complete the warm-up at idle. In the Emergency mode, the genset will skip 37 the warm-up and go directly to rated speed and volt- age. Emergency start feature is controlled by connecting a remote contact between TB8-3 and TB8-5. Open the contact for emergency start and close the con- tact for non-emergency start. In response to the remote run signal or the control detects the loss of utility voltage detected through the PTC, the control lights the Remote Start indica- tor and initiates the starting sequence described in the previous heading (Starting at Switch Pane), ex- cept for the following: In the Auto position, the contro! will complete the Time Delay To Start (0 to 300 seconds) and the ‘Time Delay To Stop (0 to 600 seconds). Refer to Adjust submenu in this section to change the time dolay settings. Exercise Start Move the 0/Manual/Auto switch to the Auto position and press and hold the Exercise button. Move the control switch from Auto to Manual and back to Auto. This will activate the engine control system to com- plete a pre-programmed exercise sequence. The sequence (Figure 3-2) will vary accordingly to the settings/selections of the system control parame- ters. PTC - The installation manual describes how to en- able exercise “with load” or “without load”. (See Table 3-3 for PTC Exercise sequence.) The InPower service tool is required to modify the following exercise parameters. Contact an autho- rized service center for assistance. The exercise sequence may include running at idle speed, ramping to rated speed, running for a prede- termined period of time and timed shutdown. During the exercise operation, the LED lamp adjacent to the Exercise button will ight. To manually stop the exercise operation before completion, press the Ex- ercise button. The set will complete its normal cool- down sequence. The control will indicate that the ‘set is in a cool-down mode by tlashing the exercise LED. PTC - If exercising with load, cool-down mode is ac- tivated after retransfer cf load to utility. (See Table 3-3 for PTC Exercise sequence.) All exercise functions ate disabled when a remote start signal is received ty the control. Cold Starting with Loads In accordance with NFPA 110, Cummins Power Generation recommends installing diese! standby generator sets (life safety systems) equipped with engine jacket water coolant heaters in locations where the minimum ambient temperature is above 40°F (4°C). NFPA also requires that the engine be heated as necessary to maintain the water jacket temperature determined by the manufacturer for cold start and load acceptance for the type of sys- tem. Although most Cummins Power Generation 38 generator sets will start in temperatures down to ~25°F (32°C) when equippad with engine jacket water coolant heaters, it might take more than 10 seconds to warm the engine before a load can be applied when ambient temperatures are below 40°F (4°C). ‘The Engine Cold (Code 1435) message, in con- junction with illumination of the Waring LED, is pro- vided to meet the requirements of NFPA 110. The engine cold sensing logic initiates a warming when the engine jacket water coolant temperature falls below 70°F (21°C). In applications where the ambi- ent temperature falls below 40°F (4°C), a cold en- gine may be indicated even though the coolant heaters are connected and operating correctly. Un- der these conditions, although the generator set may star, it may not be able to accept load within 10 seconds. When this condition occurs, check the coolant heaters for proper operation. If the coolant heaters are operating propeily, other precautions may be necessary to warm the engine before apply- ing a load. RUNNING AT IDLE (MANUAL) ‘The Run At Idle mode is selectable only when the op- ‘orator panel ie mounted on the control panol assom- bly. ‘The run mode can be set to Reted or Idle with the sot running or not running. To manually select the en- gine idle function, the O/Manual/Auto switch must be in the Manual position. Once selected and the ‘set is manually started, the control will imit the en- gine idle time to 10 minutes. When the 10 minute idle cycle is complete, the genset will ramp to rated speed. To activate the idle function, refer to page 3-21. ‘When the engine idle function is enabled, the con- tol automatically sets lower oll pressure warning and shutdown trip points to reflect the lower operat- ing speed. When the engine idle function is re- moved and the set reverts to normal operating speed, the control automatically resets oil pressure warning and shutdown trip points to the normal set- tings. STOPPING Emergency Stop (Code 1433/1434) The emergency stop button is located on the upper right side of control panel (Figure 3-1). Push the but- ton in for emergency stop. The red Shutdown status LED will light, and the graphical display message willbe: "EMERGENCY STOP 1434 ~ SHUTDOWN” To reset 1, Pull the button out. 2. Move the O/ManuaV/Auto switch to 0. 3. Press the front penel Fault Acknowledge button, 4, Retum the O/Manwal/Auto switch to the desired position. Emergency Stop shutdown status can be reset only at the operator control panel. Stopping at Switch Panel (Manual Mode) Ifthe set was started at the switch panel (/Manual/ Auto switch in the Manual position), pressing the Manual RurvStop button will cause the set to com- plete its normal (Local Start) shutdown sequence (Figure 3-2). (See Table 3-4 for PTC sequence of operation.) ‘The preset cool-down time (at rated speed) can vary dependent on the KW output. Thats, if prior to shutdown, the kW is 10% or less of rated, the control ‘software considers this output as cool-down and will subtract this time from the preset cool-down tim- er. ‘The set will stop after the Cool-down At Idle Timer (0 to 10 minutes) has timed out. (If necessary, the set will continue to run after time-out until coolant reaches normal operating temperature.) Moving the O/Manual/Auto switch to the 0 position will cause an immediate engine shutdown (bypass 39 Cool-down At Idle) and display a Cool-down Inter- rupted Waming message. This hot shutdown should be avoided, if possible, to help prolong the reliability of the generator set. Hot shutdowns are logged in the system software. Stopping at Remote Operator Panel (Auto Mode) ‘When the operator panel is mounted remotely of the control panel assembly, the Stop button of the Con- trol submenu can also be used to stop the generator set (O/Manual/Auto switch in the Auto position). The function of this Stop button is identical to the Stopping from Remote Location (non-emergency sequence, Figure 3-2). Referto page 3-21 for Con- trol Submenu description. ‘The O/Manual/Auto switch must be in the Auto pos!- tion to activate the Remote Menu Buttons of the Con- trol submenu, ‘Stopping from Remote Location (Switch or Device) (Auto Mode) If the control receives a remete stop signal or the contro! detects the return of utility voltage through the PTC. the set will complete its normal shutdown sequence.

FAULT HISTORY: The control maintains a data log of all fault conditions as they occur, and time stamps them with the control and engine operating hours. Up to 32 (unacknowledged) fault codes can be stored in control panel memory. After the fault is ac- knowledged and corrected, the recorded fault will be deleted from the control panel memory, but will remain in a data log that maintains a fault code his- tory. (The InPower service tool is required to view this data log.) The Fault History display line: 1 of 24 indicates that 24 faults are recorded and that the most recent fault (1) detected by the controller is displayed. The Occurrences display line: In this example, 5 in- dicates that this is the fith occurrence of this fault. (The InPower service tcol is required to review the last four faults of this code.) The Occurrences number is incremented for each new occurrence of the same fault. The controller must detect that the original sensed fault is cor- rected before it will increment the occurrence num- ber for that fault. For example, when a Low Oil Pressure fault is de- tected, the controller will increment the Occurrences number by 1. This fault will remain active until the controller detects that the fault is corrected. An ac- tive fault will prevent the controller from increment- ing the Occurrences number each time the engine is started, When the controller detects that the oil pres- sure is normal the fault will become inactive, allow- ing the occurrences number to be incremented for the next detected Low Oil Pressure fault. 3-23 HISTORVIABOUT (CONT) FAULTHISTORY: 1 0F 24 =] one wours ‘450° Og occunrences 5 LAY ENGINE HOURS S04 FAULTCODE14a7 CE] (FAULT DESCRIPTION, FIGURE 3-10.

Troubleshooting GENERAL The genset control continuously monitors engine sensors for abnormal conditions, such as low oil pressure and high coolant temperature. If any of these conditions occur, the control will light a yellow Warning lamp or a red Shutdown lamp and display a message on the graphical display panel. In the event of an engine shutdown fault (red Shut- down lamp), the control will stop the engine immedi- ately; an altemator shu:down fault, the engine will stop after the cool-down timer has timed out. If the generator set is stopped for this reason, the opera- tor can restart the set a'ter making adjustments or corrections. This section lists the waming and shut- down codes/messages (Table 4-1), and suggests troubleshooting procedures (Table 4-2). Displayed error codes that are not listed in Table 4-2 will require an authorized service representative to correct the fault. Contact an authorized service cen- ter for aeeistance. ‘SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS Contacting high voltage compo- nents can cause electrocution, resulting in se- vere personal injury or death. Keep the output box covers in place during troubleshooting. High voltages are present when the set is running. Do not open the generator output box while the set is running. (AWABNING] /gnition of explosive battery gases can cause severe personal injury or death. Arc- ing at battery terminals, light switch or other equipment, flame, pilot lights and sparks can ig- nite battery gas. Do not smoke, or switch trouble light ON or OFF near battery. Discharge static electricity from body before touching bat- teries by first touching a grounded metal sur- face. Ventilate battery area before working on or near battery—Wear goggles—Stop genset and dis- conneet charger before disconnecting battery cables—Disconnect negative (-) cable first and reconnect last. 44 Disconnect battery charger from AC source before disconnecting battery cables. Otherwise, disconnecting cables can result in voltage spikes damaging to DC control circuits of the set. (WARNING) Accidental starting of the generator Set can cause severe personal injury or death. Prevent accidental starting by disconnecting the negative (-) cable from the battery terminal. When troubleshooting a set that is shut down, make certain the generator set cannot be accidentally re- started as follows: 1, Move the O/Manual/Auto switch on the contro! panel to the O (off) position. 2, Tum off or remove AC power from the battery charger. 8. Remove the negative (-) battery cable from the generator set starting battery. STATUS INDICATORS Not In Auto Indicator: This red lamp flashes con- tinuously when the 0/Manual/Auto switch is not in the Auto position (Figure 4-1). Shutdown Status Indicator: This red lamp is lit whenever the contro! detects a shutdown cor Aiter the condition is corrected, the shutdown indi cator can be reset by turning the O/Manual/Auto ‘switch to the 0 position, and pressing the Fault Ac- knowledge button. The generator set can not be started when this lamp is on. Warning Status Indicator: This yellow lamp is lit whenever the control detects a waming condition. After the condition is corrected, the warming indica- tor can be reset by pressing the Fault Acknowledge button. (Itis not necessary to stop the generator set if the fault becomes inactive during genset opera~ tion.) READING FAULT CODES If the genset contains the optional graphical display and a fault occurs, the fault code/message will be displayed in the display Description Line (Figure 4-1). If the control does not contain the graphical display, the fault code is reed from the Waming and ‘Shutdown status indicators. After the fault is acknowledged and corrected, the recorded fault will be deleted from the control panel memory, but will remain in a data log to maintain a fault code history. The InPower service tool is re- quired to view this data log, Reading Fault Codes Using Graphical Display (Optional): The top three lines of the graphical dis- play contain the followirg control information in the order described: * State Line - modes of operation, such as Stopped, Time Delay To Start, Warm Up At Idle, etc. (see Figu’e 3-2), and paralleling op- erations, such as Standby, Dead BUS Close, ‘Synchronize, ete. * Action Line - system actions, such as Waming, Derate, Shutdown Cool-down and Shutdown, and fault codes. * Description Line - Fault code messages. Refer to History/About Submenus in Section 3, which describes how to view fault codes using graphical display. Reading Fault Codes Using Warning/Shutdown Indicators: If the Waming or Shutdown status indi- cator is lit, press and hold the Fault Acknowledge button and release after ten seconds or more. After ten seconds, the Shutdown lamp will begin to blink the active fault code(s) as follows. The Waming lamp is used to indicate the start of a new code. The Warning lamp will remain on for 2 seconds, followed by the Shutdown lamp blinking the fault code. This sequence occurs three times for 42 ‘each code. The fourth flash of the Waming lamp in- dicates the beginning of the second fault code. There are distinct pauses between repetitions of the code blink transmissions of the Shutdown lamp. A three digit fault code is indicated by three sets of blinks separated by a two second pause. The first set corresponds to the hundreds position, the sec- ‘ond to the tens position and the third to the ones dig- it, Example for Code No. 213: ‘Shutdown LEI blink-blink-pause-blink-pause-blink-blink-blink Warning LED: blink (2 seconds) ‘The light will display the fault codes (active or inac- tive) in succession, starting with the most recent. Up to 32 (unacknowledged) faull codes can be stored in control panel memory. To retum the control to the most recent fault code, press and release the Fault Acknowledge button (less than one second) and repeat procedure. ‘When the fault code is acknowledged and the fault condition is corrected, the fault code will be re- moved from the LED fault log. LINE CIRCUIT BREAKER (OPTIONAL) Optional line circuit breakers mount in the generator output box. If the load exceeds the circuit breaker current rating, the line circuit breaker will open, pre~ venting the generator from being overloaded. If the circuit breaker trips, locate the source of the over- load and correct as necessary. Manually reset the breaker to reconnect the load to the generator.

Use Table 4-1 to find the category (CTG) and fault de- scription for all codes. Gaps in the code numbers are for codes that do not apply to this genset model, Also, some of the codes listed are fea- ture dependent, and will not be displayed by this genset control. Category A Fault Codes: Pertain to engine or al- temator shutdown faults that require immediate re- pair by qualified service personnel (generator set non-operational). The cantrol prevents the genera- tor set from being restarted if the shutdown fault is not corrected. Category B Fault Codes: Consist of faults that can affect genset performance or cause engine, alter- nator, or connected equipment damage. Oper- ate genset only when it is powering critical loads and cannot be shut down. Requires repair by quali- fied service personnel. Category C Fault Codes: Consist of faults that do not affect generator set performance but require ‘qualified service personnel torepair. These code in- dicate a defective hamess or wiring problem. These codes can also indicate a defective engine sensor, leaving no engine protection. (Engine dam- age can occur without detection.) Continued op- eration may void generator set warranty if dam- ‘age occurs that relates to fault condition, Category D Fault Codes: Consist of faults that are repairable by site personnel.

Maintenance GENERAL Establish and adhere to a definite schedule for maintenance and servise based on the application and severity of the environment. Table 5-1 covers the recommended sence intervals for a generator set on STANDBY service. If the set will be subjected to extreme operating conditions, the service inter- vals should be reduced accordingly. Some of the factors that can affect the maintenance schedule are the followin. * Use for continuous duty (prime power) + Extremes in ambient temperature + Exposure to weather 51 + Exposure to salt water ‘* Exposure to dust, sand or other airborne con- taminates Consult with your local Cummins Power Generation distributor if the generator set will be subjected to any extreme operating conditions and determine a suitable schedule of maintenance. Use the running time meter to keep an accurate log of all service per- formed for warranty support. Perform all service at the time period indicated or atter the number of op- erating hours indicated, whichever comes first. Use Table 5-1 to determine the maintenance required and then refer to the sections that follow for the cor- rect service procedures. ‘TABLE 5-1.

The following sections cover several areas that should be frequently inspected for continued safe operation. Exhaust System With the generator set operating, inspect the entire exhaust system visually and audibly including the exhaust manifold, muffler, and exhaust pipe. Check for leaks at all connections, welds, gaskets, and joints and also make sure that exhaust pipes are not heating surrounding areas excessively. If any leaks are detected, shut down the generator set and have leaks corrected immediately. (AWABNING) Inhalation of exhaust gases can re- sult In severe personal injury or death. Be sure deadly exhaust gas is piped outside and away from any windows, doors, vents or other inlets to building and not allowed to accumulate in in- habitable areas. Fuel System With the generator set operating, inspect the fuel supply lines, retum lings, tliters, and fittings for leaks. Check any flexible sections for cuts, cracks and abrasions and make sure they are not rubbing against anything that could cause breakage. If any leaks are detected, have them corrected immedi- ately. Ignition of fuel can cause severe personal injury or death by fire or explosion. Do not permit any flame, cigarette, arcing switch or equipment, pilot light, or other igniter near the fuel system or in areas sharing ventilation. AC Electric System Check the following while the generator set is oper- ating. Frequency: The generator frequency should be stable and the reading should be the same as the nameplate. AC Voltage: At no load, the line-to-line voltage(s) should be the same as the set nameplate rating, AC Ammeter: At no load, the current readings ‘should be zero. With a load epplied, each line cur- rent should be about the same. Panel Lamps: Press and hold down the Panel Lamp/Lamp Test button on the control panel. All in- dicator lamps should light. Verify that all lamps are ‘on and then release the button. Contact an autho- rized service center if any lamps are burned out. DC Electrical System Check the terminals on the batteries for clean and tight connections. Loose or corroded connections create resistance which can hinder starting. Refer to BATTERIES later in this section for cleaning and safety precautions. Engine Monitor fluid levels and oil pressure and coolant temperatures frequently. Most engine problems give an early warming. Look and listen for changes in engine performance, sound, or appearance that ‘can indicate service or repairs needed. Some en- gine changes to look for are es follows: © Misfire * Vibration © Unusual noises ‘* Sudden changes in engine operating tempera- tures or pressures: * Excessive exhaust smoke © Loss of power * An increase in oil consumption * An increase in fuel consumption © Fuel, oll, or coolant leaks, GENERATOR SET MAINTENANCE (Battery Disconnected) Ignition of explosive battery gases can cause severe personal injury or death. Arc- ing at battery terminals, light switch or other equipment, flame, pilot lights and sparks can ig nite battery gas. Dc not smoke, or switch trouble light ON or OFF near battery. Discharge static electricity from body before touching bat- pow by first touching a grounded metal sur- ce. Ventilate battery area before working on or near battery—Wear goggles—Stop genset and dis- connect charger before disconnecting battery cables—Disconnect negative (-) cable first and reconnect last. Disconnect battery charger from AC source before disconnecting battery cables. Otherwise, disconnecting cables can result in voltage spikes damaging to DC control circuits of the set. Accidental starting of the generator set can cause severe personal injury or death. Prevent accidental starting by disconnecting the negative (-) cable trom the battery terminal before beginning maintenance procedures. When performing the following maintenance proce- dures, make certain the generator set cannot be ao- cidentally restarted as follows: 1, Move the O/Manual/Auto switch on the control panel to the O (off) cosition. 2. Tum off or remove AC power from the battery charger. 54 3, Remove the negative (~) battery cable from the generator set starting battery. Mechanical Inspection With the generator set stopsed, check for loose belts and fittings, leaking gaskets and hoses, or any signs of mechanical damage. if any problems are found, have them corrected immediately. FUEL SYSTEM Refer to the Cummins QSK45 and QSK60 Series Engines Operation and Maintenance Manual for fuel recommendations and fuel system mainte- nance, such as, draining of the fuel-water separat- ors and fuel filter replacement interval and proce- dure. Fuel Handling Precautions Ignition of fuel can cause serious personal injury or death by fire or explosion. Do not permit any flame, cigarette, arc, spark, pilot light, or other igniter near the fuel system. ‘To avoid condensation problems, keep fuel supply tanks as full as possible by filing up each time the engine is used. In cold weather, warm fuel retuming from the injectors heats the fuel in the supply tank. If the fuel level is low, the upper portion of the tank tends to form condensation. In warm weather, both the fuel and the tank will be warm during the day- time. At night, cool air tends to lower the tempera- ture of the tank more rapidly than the temperature of the fuel. If the fuel level is low, the upper portion of the tank will cool more rapidly and tend to form con- densation. ‘Condensation (water) can cause clogging of fuel fi ters with the sulphur in the fuel forms acid which can corrode and damage engine parts. LUBRICATION SYSTEM Gensets are shipped filled with the correct type and quantity of oll. Be sure to check oil level before initial start. Oil API Classification Refer to the Cummins QSK45 and QSK60 Series Engines Operation and Maintenance Manual or lu- bricating oil classification. Oil Viscosity Refer to the Cummins QSK45 and QSK60 Series Engines Operation and Maintenance Manual forlu- bricating oil recommendations/specifications. il Level Engine Check the engine oil level during engine shutdown Periods at the intervals specified in the Mainte- nance Table. The dipstick is stamped with high and jow marks to indicate the level of oil in the crank- case. For accurate readings, shut off the engine and wait approximately 15 minutes before checking the oil evel. This allows oil in the upper portion of the engine to drain back into the crankcase, Crankease pressure can blow out hot oll and cause severe burns. Do NOT check oil while the generator set is operating. Keep the oil level as near as possible to the high mark on the dipstick but never above it. Remove the oil fill cap and add oil of tie same API viscos- ity and brand when necessary, Install the oil fil cap after adding oil. ([ACAUTION) Do not operate the engine with the oil level below the low mark or above the high ‘mark. Overfilling can cause foaming or aeration of the oil while operation below the low mark may cause loss of oil pressure. Oil and Filter Change Refer to the Cummins QSK45 and QSK60 Series Engines Operation and Maintenance Manual for maintenance interval and procedure. State or federal agencies have de- termined that contact with used engine oil can cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. Do not contact oil or breath vapors. Use rubber gloves and wash exposed skin. Used oil and filters must be disposed of proper- ly to avoid environmental damage and clean-up liability. Check all federal, state and local regu- lations for disposal requirements. | COOLING SYSTEM The heater must not be operated while the the cooling system Is empty or when the engine is running or damage to the heater will oceur, (ACAUTION) Remove AC power to the heater be- fore disconnecting battery cables. Heater will run continuously without DC power and can overheat and damage heater. [CAUTION] Do not add cold coolant to a hot en- gine. Engine castings can be damaged. Allow the engine to cool to below 120° F (50° C) before adding coolant. Coolant Level Check the coolant level during shutdown periods at the intervals specified ir the Maintenance Table. A sight glass is provided on both radiators (Figure 5-1). The coolant level should be approximately in the middle of the sight glass, with the coolant tempera- ture at 120° F (60°C) or lower. Refer to the Cum- mins QSK60 Series Engines Operation and Mainte- nance Manual for coolant recommendations/speci- fications. Contact with hot coolant can result in serious burns. Allow cooling system to cool before releasing pressure and removing jacket water radiator cap or LTA expansion tank cap. Cooling System Maintenance Refer to the Cummins QSK60 Series Engines Op- eration and Maintenance Manualtor all cooling sys- tem maintenance, such as, coolant requirements, filing of the engine jacket water and LTA cooling systems, coolant filter replacement and flushing and cleaning. Refer to Figure 5-2 for the coolant drain locations of the aftercooler and water jacket systems. In addition to the cooling system maintenance pro- cedures in the Engine Operation and Maintenance Manual, also refer to the generator set Installation Manual (Section 9). This manual contains additional information which must be followed to properly bleed the air from the cooling system during coolant refill. Hf engine coolant heater(s) is installed in the jacket water cooling system, disconnect heater(s) from Power source before performing cooling system maintenance. (ACAUTION] The heater element will burn out if engine coolant is removed with heater con- nected to power source. The heater clement will burn out if power is connected before it is filled with cool- ant or if straight antifreeze solution is used for coolant. Before connecting power, fill the en- gine with coolant and run itfor a while to circu- late coolant through the heater.

Discharge static electricity from body before touching bat- teries by first touching a grounded metal sur- face. Ventilate battery area before working on or near battery—Wear goggles—Stop genset and dis- connect charger before disconnecting battery cables—Disconnect negative (-) cable first and reconnect last. (ACAUTION] Disconnect battery charger from AC source before disconnecting battery cables. Otherwise, disconnecting cables can result in voltage spikes damaging to DC control circuits of the set. ‘Check the condition of the starting batteries at the interval specified in the Maintenance Table. To pre- vent dangerous arcing, always disconnect the neg- ative ground cable from the battery before working ‘on any part of the electical system or the engine. Disregard the sections On Checking Specific Gravi- ty and Checking Electrolyte Level if using a “mainte- nance-free" battery. Cleaning Batteries Electrolyte is a dilute sulfuric acid that is harmful to the skin and eyes. Do not get the substance in your eyes or contact with skin. Wear goggles and protective, rubber gloves and apron when servicing batteries. In case of contact, immediately wash skin with soap and water. In case of contact, immediately flood eyes with large amounts of water for a minimum of 15 minutes. IMMEDIATELY CALL A PHYSICIAN. 59 Keep the batteries clean by wiping them with a damp cloth whenever dirt appears excessive. If corrosion is present around the terminal connec- tions, remove battery cables and wash the termi- nals with a solution consisting of 1/4 pound of bak- ing soda added to 1 quart of water. (This solution is, also used for washing down spilled electrolyte.) Be sure the vent plugs are tight to prevent cleaning solution from entering the cells. After cleaning, flush the outside of the battery and ‘surrounding areas with clean water. Keep the battery terminals clean and tight. After making connections, coat the terminals with a light application of petroleum jelly or non-conductive grease to retard corrosion. Checking Specific Gravity Use a battery hydrometer to check the specific gravity of the electrolyte in each battery cell. Hold the hydrometer vertical and take the reading. Correct the reading by adding four gravity points (0.004) for every ten degrees the electrolyte tem- perature is above 80° F (27° C). A fully charged bat- tery will have a corrected specific aravity of 1.260. Charge the battery if the reading is below 1.215. Checking Electrolyte Level [ACAUTION] Do not add water in freezing weather unless the engine will run long enough (two to three hours) fo assure a thorough mixing of wa- ter and electrolyte. ‘Check the level of the electrolyte (acid and water solution) in the batteries at least every 200 hours of operation. Fill the battery cells to the bottom ofthe filer neck. If cells are low on water, add distilled water and re- charge. IFone cell is low, check case for leaks. Keep the battery case clean and dry. An accumulation of moisture will lead to a more rapid discharge and battery failure, Battery Replacement Always replace the starting battery with the same number and type (vented, lead acid). Property dis- pose of battery in accordance with local environ- mental agency requirements. Electrolyte or explosion of battery can cause severe personal injury or death. Do not mutilate or burn the battery in a fire for dis- posal. Damage to case will release electrolyte which is harmful to the skin and eyes and is also toxic. Burning of battery may cause an explosion. 5-10 NiCad Batteries NiCad (nickel-cadmium) battery systems are often ‘specified where extreme high or low ambient tem- perature is expected because their performance is less affected by temperature extremes than that of lead-acid batteries. NiCad batteries require special battery chargers in ‘order to bring them to the ful-charge level. These chargers must be provided with filter to reduce “charge ripple” which can disrupt engine and gener- ator control systems. FAN BEARING RE-LUBRICATION Re-lubricate the fan bearings at the interval speci- fied in the Maintenance Table. A grease fitting is provided for each of ths two bearings to allow the use of a grease gun to re-lubricate the bearings. The grease fittings are located on side of the fan housing pedestal structure (Figure 5-4). The recommended lubricant is a lithium based grease, such as, Mobilix EP 2, Mobilith AW 2, or Shell Alvania R3. Note the following quentities when re-lubricating the bearings. Fan side bearing ~ 39 grams Pulley side beating ~ 31 grams en BEARINGS FITTINGS FIGURE 5-4. FAN BEARING GREASE FITTINGS FAN BELT REPLACEMENT (AWARNING] Arcing at battery terminals, arcing in light switch or other equipment, flame, pilot lights and sparks can ignite battery gas causing ‘severe personal injury. Ventilate battery area before working on or near battery—Wear safety glasses—Do not smoke— ‘Switch trouble light ON or OFF away from bat- tery—Stop genset and disconnect charger be- fore disconnecting battery cables—Disconnect negative (-) cable first and reconnect last. Disconnect battery charger from AC source before disconnecting battery cables. Otherwise, disconnecting cables can result in voltage spikes damaging to DC control circuits of the set. Accidental starting of the generator set while working on it can cause severe per- sonal injury or death, Prevent accidental start- ing by disconnecting the negative (-) cable from the battery terminal. Belt Removal 1. Disconnect the negative (-) cable fron the bat- tery to prevent acctdental starting. 2. Remove fan belt guard (between engine and radiator) to gain access to fan belt. 3. Use an 8-point socket and breaker bar or a large wrench to hold the idler in position against the spring tension. Slowly tum the wrench until the spring tension is relieved (Figure 5-5). Re- move the fan belt. The fan belt idler is under ten- sion. Do not allow your hands to get be- tween the idler and the belt or the fan hub. Personal injury will result. Belt Replacement 1. Slip new fan belt onto the crankshaft and fan hub pulley. The fan belt idler is under ten- sion. Do not allow your hands to get be- tween the idler and the belt or the fan hub. Personal injury will result. 2. Use an 8:point socket and breaker bar or a large wrench to hold the idler in position against the spring tension. Slowly tum the wrench until the spring tension is relieved sufficiently to position the belt in front ofthe idler pulley. Align the grooves of the belt on the ribs of the pulley and shaft and then slowiy release spring ten- sion onto belt. 7 spring-loaded idler used on this design maintains the correct belt tension. 3, Install fan belt guards. 4, Reconnect starting batteries (negative cable last). §. Start genset and visually check belt for proper alignment with engine running. ‘TURN WRENCH IN DIRECTION OF ARROW UNTIL SPRING TENSION 1S RELIEVED. FIGURE 5-5. FAN BELT REPLACEMENT GENERATOR BEARING RE-LUBRICATION Re-lubricate the generator bearing at the interval specified in the Mainterance Table. A grease fitting is provided to allow the use of a grease gun to re-iu- bricate the bearing. The bearing must be filed with the same type of grease used when the generator was manufac- tured. This grease was chosen to provide the bear- ing with optimum lubrizating characteristics, and MUST NOT be mixed with any other type. The grease that must be used is Kluber, type ASONIC GHY72. To locate the nearest Kliber grease distributor, see Kluber Web site at: www.klueber.com Lubrication Itis important that the correct quantity of grease is used for periodic re-lubrication with a grease gun during planned maintenance. Refer to label located at bearing end of generator (if provided) or Table 5-2, which specifies the grease fill quantity. To determine how much grease is supplied with each pump (stroke) of the device, weight the quanti- ty required (e.g,, 75 grams or 2.7 ounces + 1/4 = 19 grams or 0.68 ounces), against the number of pump strokes taken to inject that amount onto a small weighing scale. Also, nete in practice: © If the pump hits an airlock, (i.e., no pressure when pumping) these strokes can not be counted. * For greater accuracy, the grease fitting can be unscrewed, and a flexible grease-pipe sctewed directly to the fiting adapter. This will make sure that no grease is expelled outside of the fiting. ‘ If too much grease is applied, any excess will be exhausted out of the bearing cartridge via the grease escape. (Any exhausted grease ‘should be cleaned out of the PMG cover. * Always extend the grease gun pump arm out to its full extent with each pump, failure to do this could mean little or no grease is going into the bearing. Re-Lubrication Procedure 1. Make sure grease gun nozzle and re-lubricat- ing fitting are free from contaminants or abra- sive material 2. With the generator running, apply the specified rerlubrication grease fill quantity through the grease fitting. 3. Run the generator for at a minimum of 10 min- utes to allow excess grease to exhaust. 4, Check inside the PMG cover for expelled grease. Clean out as necessary. ‘TABLE 5-2.

Operating Recommendations NO-LOAD OPERATION Periods of no load operation should be held to a minimum. If itis necessary to keep the engine run- ning for long periods of ime when no electric output is required, best engine performance will be ob- tained by connecting a load bank of at least 30 per- cent of nameplate MW rating, EXERCISE PERIOD Generator sets on continuous standby must be able to go from a cold start to being fully operational in a matter of seconds. This can impose a severe bur- den on engine parts. Regular exercising keeos engine parts lubricated, prevents oxidation of electrical contacts and in gen- eral helps provide reliable engine starting, Exercise the generator set at least once a month for a minimum of 80 minutes, under not less than 30 percent of the nameplate MW rating. LOW OPERATING TEMPERATURE Use a coolant heater if a separate source of power is available. The optional heater available trom Cummins will help provide reliable starting under adverse weather conditions. Be sure the voltage of the separate power source is correct for the heater element rating. 6-1 HIGH OPERATING TEMPERATURE Refer to the genset nameplate for the maximum ambient operating temperature, if applicable. GENERATOR SET STANDBY RATING Applicable for supplying emergency power for the duration of normal power interruption. No sustained overload capability is available for this rating. This rating is applicable to installations served by a reli- able normal utility source. This rating is only appli- Cable to variable loads with an average load factor of 80 percent of the standby rating for a maximum of 200 hours of operation per year and a maximum of 25 hours per year at 100% of ts standby rating. The standby rating is only applicable to emergency and standby applications where the generator set serves as the back up to the normal utility source. No sustained utility parallel operation is permitted with this rating. (Equivalent to Fuel Stop Power in accordance with 1803046, AS2789, DIN6271 and BS5514). Nominally Rated. Derating Factors Engine power available up to 260 m (853 tt) at ambi- ‘ent temperatures up to 40° C (104° F). Above these elevations, derate at 8.9% per 305 m (1000 ft) and 8.4% per 10° C (18° F).
