1 Safety precautions for on-site generators
To be read attentively and acted accordingly before towing, lifting, operating, performing maintenance or repairing the generator.
1.1 Introduction
The policy of Atlas Copco is to provide the users of their
equipment with safe, reliable and efficient products.
Factors taken into account are among others:
- the intended and predictable future use of the
products, and the environments in which they are
expected to operate,
- applicable rules, codes and regulations,
- the expected useful product life, assuming proper
service and maintenance,
- providing the manual with up-to-date information.
Before handling any product, take time to read the
relevant instruction manual. Besides giving detailed
operating instructions, it also gives specific information
about safety, preventive maintenance, etc.
Keep the manual always at the unit location, easy
accessible to the operating personnel.
See also the safety precautions of the engine and
possible other equipment, which are separately sent
along or are mentioned on the equipment or parts of the
unit.
These safety precautions are general and some
statements will therefore not always apply to a particular
unit.
Only people that have the right skills should be allowed
to operate, adjust, perform maintenance or repair on
Atlas Copco equipment. It is the responsibility of
management to appoint operators with the appropriate
training and skill for each category of job.
Skill level 1: Operator
An operator is trained in all aspects of operating the unit
with the push-buttons, and is trained to know the safety
aspects.
Skill level 2: Mechanical technician
A mechanical technician is trained to operate the unit the
same as the operator. In addition, the mechanical
technician is also trained to perform maintenance and
repair, as described in the instruction manual, and is
allowed to change settings of the control and safety
system. A mechanical technician does not work on live
electrical components.
Skill level 3: Electrical technician
An electrical technician is trained and has the same
qualifications as both the operator and the mechanical
technician. In addition, the electrical technician may
carry out electrical repairs within the various enclosures
of the unit. This includes work on live electrical
components.
Skill level 4: Specialist from the manufacturer
This is a skilled specialist sent by the manufacturer or its
agent to perform complex repairs or modifications to the
equipment.
-9-
In general it is recommended that not more than two
people operate the unit, more operators could lead to
unsafe operating conditions. Take necessary steps to
keep unauthorized persons away from the unit and
eliminate all possible sources of danger at the unit.
When handling, operating, overhauling and/or
performing maintenance or repair on Atlas Copco
equipment, the mechanics are expected to use safe
engineering practices and to observe all relevant local
safety requirements and ordinances. The following list is
a reminder of special safety directives and precautions
mainly applicable to Atlas Copco equipment.
Neglecting the safety precautions may endanger people
as well as environment and machinery:
- endanger people due to electrical, mechanical or
chemical influences,
- endanger the environment due to leakage of oil,
solvents or other substances,
- endanger the machinery due to function failures.
All responsibility for any damage or injury resulting
from neglecting these precautions or by non-observance
of ordinary caution and due care required in handling,
operating, maintenance or repair, also if not expressly
mentioned in this instruction manual, is disclaimed by
Atlas Copco.
The manufacturer does not accept any liability for any
damage arising from the use of non-original parts and for
modifications, additions or conversions made without
the manufacturer’s approval in writing.
If any statement in this manual does not comply with
local legislation, the stricter of the two shall be applied.
Statements in these safety precautions should not be
interpreted as suggestions, recommendations or
inducements that it should be used in violation of any
applicable laws or regulations.
1.2 General safety precautions
1 The owner is responsible for maintaining the unit in
a safe operating condition. Unit parts and
accessories must be replaced if missing or
unsuitable for safe operation.
2 The supervisor, or the responsible person, shall at
all times make sure that all instructions regarding
machinery and equipment operation and
maintenance are strictly followed and that the
machines with all accessories and safety devices, as
well as the consuming devices, are in good repair,
free of abnormal wear or abuse, and are not
tampered with.
3 Whenever there is an indication or any suspicion
that an internal part of a machine is overheated, the
machine shall be stopped but no inspection covers
shall be opened before sufficient cooling time has
elapsed; this to avoid the risk of spontaneous
ignition of oil vapour when air is admitted.
4 Normal ratings (pressures, temperatures, speeds, 14 When working on the unit, wear safety clothing.

be replaced whenever outside acceptable tolerances.
10 Safety devices shall be tested as described in the
maintenance schedule of the instruction manual to
determine that they are in good operating condition.
11 Mind the markings and information labels on the
unit.
12 In the event the safety labels are damaged or
destroyed, they must be replaced to ensure operator
safety.
13 Keep the work area neat. Lack of order will increase
the risk of accidents.
- 10 -
1.3 Safety during transport and
installation
To lift a unit, all loose or pivoting parts, e.g. doors and
towbar, shall first be securely fastened.
Do not attach cables, chains or ropes directly to the
lifting eye; apply a crane hook or lifting shackle meeting
local safety regulations. Never allow sharp bends in
lifting cables, chains or ropes.
Helicopter lifting is not allowed.
It is strictly forbidden to dwell or stay in the risk zone
under a lifted load. Never lift the unit over people or
residential areas. Lifting acceleration and deceration
shall be kept within safe limits.
1 Before towing the unit:
- check the towbar, the brake system and the
towing eye. Also check the coupling of the
towing vehicle,
- check the towing and brake capability of the
towing vehicle,
- check that the towbar, jockey wheel or stand leg
is safely locked in the raised position,
- ascertain that the towing eye can swivel freely on
the hook,
- check that the wheels are secure and that the
tyres are in good condition and inflated correctly,
- connect the signalisation cable, check all lights
and connect the pneumatic brake couplers,
- attach the safety break-away cable or safety
chain to the towing vehicle,
- remove wheel chocks, if applied, and disengage
the parking brake.
2 To tow a unit use a towing vehicle of ample
capacity. Refer to the documentation of the towing
vehicle.
3 If a unit is to be backed up by a towing vehicle,
disengage the overrun brake mechanism (if it is not
an automatic mechanism).
4 In case of transporting a non-trailer unit on a truck,
fasten it to the truck by attaching straps via fork lift
slots, via the holes in the frame at the front and back
or via the lifting beam. To prevent damage, never
put straps on the roof surface of the unit.
5 Never exceed the maximum towing speed of the
unit (mind the local regulations).
6 Place the unit on level ground and apply the parking
brake before disconnecting the unit from the towing
vehicle. Unclip the safety break-away cable or
safety chain. If the unit has no parking brake or
jockey wheel, immobilize the unit by placing
chocks in front of and/or behind the wheels. When
the towbar can be positioned vertically, the locking
device must be applied and kept in good order.
7 To lift heavy parts, a hoist of ample capacity, tested
and approved according to local safety regulations,
shall be used.
8 Lifting hooks, eyes, shackles, etc., shall never be
bent and shall only have stress in line with their
design load axis. The capacity of a lifting device
diminishes when the lifting force is applied at an
angle to its load axis.
9 For maximum safety and efficiency of the lifting
apparatus all lifting members shall be applied as
near to perpendicular as possible. If required, a
lifting beam shall be applied between hoist and
load.
10 Never leave a load hanging on a hoist.
- 11 -
11 A hoist has to be installed in such a way that the
object will be lifted perpendicular. If that is not
possible, the necessary precautions must be taken to
prevent load-swinging, e.g. by using two hoists,
each at approximately the same angle not exceeding
30° from the vertical.
12 Locate the unit away from walls. Take all
precautions to ensure that hot air exhausted from the
engine and driven machine cooling systems cannot
be recirculated. If such hot air is taken in by the
engine or driven machine cooling fan, this may
cause overheating of the unit; if taken in for
combustion, the engine power will be reduced.
13 Generators shall be stalled on an even, solid floor,
in a clean location with sufficient ventilation. If the
floor is not level or can vary in inclination, consult
Atlas Copco.
14 The electrical connections shall correspond to local
codes. The machines shall be earthed and protected
against short circuits by fuses or circuit breakers.
15 Never connect the generator outlets to an
installation which is also connected to a public
mains.
16 Before connecting a load, switch off the
corresponding circuit breaker, and check whether
frequency, voltage, current and power factor
comply with the ratings of the generator.
17 Before transportation of the unit, switch off all the
circuit breakers.
1.4 Safety during use and
operation
1 When the unit has to operate in a fire-hazardous
environment, each engine exhaust has to be
provided with a spark arrestor to trap incendiary
sparks.
2 The exhaust contains carbon monoxide which is a
lethal gas. When the unit is used in a confined
space, conduct the engine exhaust to the outside
atmosphere by a pipe of sufficient diameter; do this
in such a way that no extra back pressure is created
for the engine. If necessary, install an extractor.
Observe any existing local regulations.
Make sure that the unit has sufficient air intake for
operation. If necessary, install extra air intake ducts.
3 When operating in a dust-laden atmosphere, place
the unit so that dust is not carried towards it by the
wind. Operation in clean surroundings considerably
extends the intervals for cleaning the air intake
filters and the cores of the coolers.
4 Never remove a filler cap of the cooling water
system of a hot engine. Wait until the engine has
sufficiently cooled down.
5 Never refill fuel while the unit is running, unless
otherwise stated in the Atlas Copco Instruction
Book (AIB). Keep fuel away from hot parts such as
air outlet pipes or the engine exhaust. Do not smoke
when fuelling. When fuelling from an automatic
pump, an earthing cable should be connected to the
unit to discharge static electricity. Never spill nor
leave oil, fuel, coolant or cleansing agent in or
around the unit.
6 All doors shall be shut during operation so as not to
disturb the cooling air flow inside the bodywork
and/or render the silencing less effective. A door
should be kept open for a short period only e.g. for
inspection or adjustment.
7 Periodically carry out maintenance works according
to the maintenance schedule.
8 Stationary housing guards are provided on all
rotating or reciprocating parts not otherwise
protected and which may be hazardous to
personnel. Machinery shall never be put into
operation, when such guards have been removed,
before the guards are securely reinstalled.
9 Noise, even at reasonable levels, can cause irritation
and disturbance which, over a long period of time,
may cause severe injuries to the nervous system of
human beings.
When the sound pressure level, at any point where
personnel normally has to attend, is:
- below 70 dB(A): no action needs to be taken,
- above 70 dB(A): noise-protective devices should
be provided for people continuously being
present in the room,
- below 85 dB(A): no action needs to be taken for
occasional visitors staying a limited time only,
- above 85 dB(A): room to be classified as a noise-
hazardous area and an obvious warning shall be
placed permanently at each entrance to alert
people entering the room, for even relatively
short times, about the need to wear ear
protectors,
- 12 -
- above 95 dB(A): the warning(s) at the
entrance(s) shall be completed with the
recommendation that also occasional visitors
shall wear ear protectors,
- above 105 dB(A): special ear protectors that are
adequate for this noise level and the spectral
composition of the noise shall be provided and a
special warning to that effect shall be placed at
each entrance.
10 The unit has parts of which the temperature can be
in excess of 80 °C (176 °F), and which may be
accidentally touched by personnel when opening
the machine during or just after operation.
Insulation or safety guards protecting these parts
shall not be removed before the parts have cooled
down sufficiently, and must be re-installed before
operating the machine. As it is not possible to
insulate or protect all hot parts by guards (e.g.
exhaust manifold, exhaust turbine), the operator /
service engineer must always be aware not to touch
hot parts when opening a machine door.
11 Never operate the unit in surroundings where there
is a possibility of taking in flammable or toxic
fumes.
12 If the working process produces fumes, dust or
vibration hazards, etc., take the necessary steps to
eliminate the risk of personnel injury.
13 When using compressed air or inert gas to clean
down equipment, do so with caution and use the
appropriate protection, at least safety glasses, for
the operator as well as for any bystander. Do not
apply compressed air or inert gas to your skin or
direct an air or gas stream at people. Never use it to
clean dirt from your clothes.
14 When washing parts in or with a cleaning solvent,
provide the required ventilation and use appropriate
protection such as a breathing filter, safety glasses,
rubber apron and gloves, etc.
15 Safety shoes should be compulsory in any
workshop and if there is a risk, however small, of
falling objects, wearing of a safety helmet should be
included.
16 If there is a risk of inhaling hazardous gases, fumes
or dust, the respiratory organs must be protected and
depending on the nature of the hazard, so must the
eyes and skin.
17 Remember that where there is visible dust, the finer,
invisible particles will almost certainly be present
too; but the fact that no dust can be seen is not a
reliable indication that dangerous, invisible dust is
not present in the air.
18 Never operate the generator in excess of its limits as
indicated in the technical specifications and avoid
long no-load sequences.
19 Never operate the generator in a humid atmosphere.
Excessive moisture reduces the generator
insulation.
20 Do not open electrical cabinets, cubicles or other
equipment while voltage is supplied. If such cannot
be avoided, e.g. for measurements, tests or
adjustments, have the action carried out by a
qualified electrician only, with appropriate tools,
and ascertain that the required bodily protection
against electrical hazards is applied.
21 Never touch the power terminals during operation
of the machine.
22 Whenever an abnormal condition arises, e.g.
excessive vibration, noise, odour, etc., switch the
circuit breakers to OFF and stop the engine. Correct
the faulty condition before restarting.
23 Check the electric cables regularly. Damaged cables
and insufficient tightening of connections may
cause electric shocks. Whenever damaged wires or
dangerous conditions are observed, switch the
circuit breakers to OFF and stop the engine.
Replace the damaged wires or correct the dangerous
condition before restarting. Make sure that all
electric connections are securely tightened.
24 Avoid overloading the generator. The generator is
provided with circuit breakers for overload
protection. When a breaker has tripped, reduce the
concerned load before restarting.
25 If the generator is used as stand-by for the mains
supply, it must not be operated without control
system which automatically disconnects the
generator from the mains when the mains supply is
restored.
26 Never remove the cover of the output terminals
during operation. Before connecting or
disconnecting wires, switch off the load and the
circuit breakers, stop the machine and make sure
that the machine cannot be started inadvertently or
there is any residual voltage on the power circuit.
27 Running the generator at low load for long periods
will reduce the lifetime of the engine.
28 When operating the generator in Remote or Auto
mode, observe all relevant local legislation.
- 13 -
1.5 Safety during maintenance
and repair
Maintenance, overhaul and repair work shall only be
carried out by adequately trained personnel; if required,
under supervision of someone qualified for the job.
1 Use only the correct tools for maintenance and
repair work, and only tools which are in good
condition.
2 Parts shall only be replaced by genuine Atlas Copco
replacement parts.
3 All maintenance work, other than routine attention,
shall only be undertaken when the unit is stopped.
Steps shall be taken to prevent inadvertent starting.
In addition, a warning sign bearing a legend such as
“work in progress; do not start” shall be attached to
the starting equipment.
On engine-driven units the battery shall be
disconnected and removed or the terminals covered
by insulating caps.
On electrically driven units the main switch shall be
locked in open position and the fuses shall be taken
out. A warning sign bearing a legend such as “work
in progress; do not supply voltage” shall be attached
to the fuse box or main switch.
4 Prior to stripping an engine or other machine or
undertaking major overhaul on it, prevent all
movable parts from rolling over or moving.
5 Make sure that no tools, loose parts or rags are left
in or on the machine. Never leave rags or loose
clothing near the engine air intake.
6 Never use flammable solvents for cleaning (fire-
risk).
7 Take safety precautions against toxic vapours of
cleaning liquids.
8 Never use machine parts as a climbing aid.
9 Observe scrupulous cleanliness during maintenance
and repair. Keep away dirt, cover the parts and
exposed openings with a clean cloth, paper or tape.
10 Never weld on or perform any operation involving
heat near the fuel or oil systems. Fuel and oil tanks
must be completely purged, e.g. by steam-cleaning,
before carrying out such operations. Never weld on,
or in any way modify, pressure vessels. Disconnect
the alternator cables during arc welding on the unit.
11 Support the towbar and the axle(s) securely if
working underneath the unit or when removing a
wheel. Do not rely on jacks.
12 Do not remove any of, or tamper with, the sound-
damping material. Keep the material free of dirt and
liquids such as fuel, oil and cleansing agents. If any
sound-damping material is damaged, replace it to
prevent the sound pressure level from increasing.
13 Use only lubricating oils and greases recommended
or approved by Atlas Copco or the machine
manufacturer. Ascertain that the selected lubricants
comply with all applicable safety regulations,
especially with regard to explosion or fire-risk and
the possibility of decomposition or generation of
hazardous gases. Never mix synthetic with mineral
oil.
14 Protect the engine, alternator, air intake filter,
electrical and regulating components, etc., to
prevent moisture ingress, e.g. when steam-cleaning.
15 When performing any operation involving heat,
flames or sparks on a machine, the surrounding
components shall first be screened with non-
flammable material.
16 Never use a light source with open flame for
inspecting the interior of a machine.
17 When repair has been completed, the machine shall
be barred over at least one revolution for
reciprocating machines, several revolutions for
rotary ones to ensure that there is no mechanical
interference within the machine or driver. Check the
direction of rotation of electric motors when starting
up the machine initially and after any alteration to
the electrical connection(s) or switch gear, to check
that the oil pump and the fan function properly.
- 14 -
18 Maintenance and repair work should be recorded in
an operator’s logbook for all machinery. Frequency
and nature of repairs can reveal unsafe conditions.
19 When hot parts have to be handled, e.g. shrink
fitting, special heat-resistant gloves shall be used
and, if required, other body protection shall be
applied.
20 When using cartridge type breathing filter
equipment, ascertain that the correct type of
cartridge is used and that its useful service life is not
surpassed.
21 Make sure that oil, solvents and other substances
likely to pollute the environment are properly
disposed of.
22 Before clearing the generator for use after
maintenance or overhaul, submit it to a test run,
check that the AC power performance is correct and
that the control and shutdown devices function
correctly.
1.6 Tool applications safety 4 When connecting an auxiliary battery (AB) in
parallel to the unit battery (CB) with booster cables:
Apply the proper tool for each job. With the knowledge connect the + pole of AB to the + pole of CB, then
of correct tool use and knowing the limitations of tools, connect the - pole of CB to the mass of the unit.
along with some common sense, many accidents can be Disconnect in the reverse order.
prevented.
Special service tools are available for specific jobs and
should be used when recommended. The use of these
tools will save time and prevent damage to parts.

1.7 Battery safety precautions

When servicing batteries, always wear protecting
clothing and glasses.
1 The electrolyte in batteries is a sulphuric acid
solution which is fatal if it hits your eyes, and which
can cause burns if it contacts your skin. Therefore,
be careful when handling batteries, e.g. when
checking the charge condition.
2 Install a sign prohibiting fire, open flame and
smoking at the post where batteries are being
charged.
3 When batteries are being charged, an explosive gas
mixture forms in the cells and might escape through
the vent holes in the plugs.
Thus an explosive atmosphere may form around the
battery if ventilation is poor, and can remain in and
around the battery for several hours after it has been
charged. Therefore:
- never smoke near batteries being, or having
recently been, charged,
- never break live circuits at battery terminals,
because a spark usually occurs.

3 Installation and connection
3.1 Lifting
The lifting eye, to lift the generator by means of a
hoist, is integrated in the bodywork and easily
accessible from the outside. The recesses in the roof
have guiding rods at both sides.
When lifting the generator, the hoist has to be placed
in such a way that the generator, which must be
placed level, will be lifted vertically.
Never use the guiding rods to lift the
generator.
Lifting acceleration and deceration
must be kept within safe limits (max.
2 g).
Helicopter lifting is not allowed.
To be able to lift the generator by means of a forklift, 3.2 Installation
rectangular slots are provided at the bottom of the
frame. 3.2.1 Indoor installation
If the generator is operated indoors, install an exhaust
pipe of sufficient diameter to duct the engine exhaust
towards the outside. Check for sufficient ventilation
so that the cooling air is not recirculated.
For more information about indoor
installation, consult your local Atlas
Copco dealer.
3.2.2 Outdoor installation
– Place the generator on a horizontal, even and solid
floor. The generator can operate in a slant position
not exceeding 15% (in both senses: front/rear and
left/right).
– The generator should be kept with the doors
closed, in order to avoid the ingress of water and
dust. Dust ingress reduces the lifetime of filters
and may reduce your generator's performance.
– Check that the engine exhaust is not directed
towards people.
– Locate the rear end of the generator upwind, away
from contaminated wind streams and walls. Avoid
recirculation of exhaust air from the engine. This
causes overheating and engine power decrease.

4 Operating instructions
In your own interest, always strictly
observe all relevant safety
instructions.
Do not operate the generator in
excess of the limitations mentioned
in the Technical Specifications.
Local rules concerning the setting
up of low voltage power installations
(below 1000 V) must be respected
when connecting site distribution
panels, switch gear or loads to the
generator.
At each start-up and at any time a
new load is connected, the earthing
and protections (GB trip and earth
leakage relay) of the generator must
be verified. Earthing must be done
either by the earthing rod or, if
available, by an existing, suitable
earthing installation. The protective
system against excessive contact
voltage is not effective unless a
suitable earthing is made.
4.1 Before starting
– With the generator standing level, check the
engine oil level and top up if necessary. The oil
level must be near to, but not exceed the high mark
on the engine oil level dipstick.
– Check the coolant level in the expansion tank of
the engine cooling system. The coolant level must
be near to the FULL mark. Add coolant if
necessary.
– Drain any water and sediment from the fuel pre-
filter. Check the fuel level and top up if necessary.
It is recommended to fill the tank after the day’s
operation to prevent water vapor in a nearly empty
tank from condensing.
– Drain leaking fluid from the frame.
– Check the vacuum indicator of the air filter. If the
red part shows completely, replace the filter
element.
– Press the dust evacuator of the air filter to remove
dust.
– Check the generator for leakage, tightness of wire
terminals, etc. Correct if necessary.
– Check that circuit breaker Q1 is switched off.
– Check that fuse F10 has not tripped and that the
emergency stop is in the OUT position.
– Check that the load is switched off.
– Check that the earth fault protection (N13) has not
tripped (reset if necessary).

The display has 4 different lines. The information on
these lines can change, depending on which view is
used. There are 4 different main views possible:
SETUP / V3 / V2 / V1.

V3 view
The user can scroll through these views with the scroll
buttons:
– The SETUP view shows the module name, the
software version, the date and the time.
– The V3 view shows the application type and the

SETUP menu
The control and protection parameters can be
programmed according the application. This can be
done by scrolling through the setup menu to the
appropriate parameter. Each parameter has a specific
channel number and is listed in one of the 4 main
SETUP menus:
– Protection Setup (PROT): Channels from 1000 to
1999 (steps of 10).
– Control Setup (CTRL): Channels from 2000 to

Multiple gensets with load sharing
In this application the units are enabled to share the
active and reactive load equally in percentage of the
nominal power. The load sharing is active when each
genset is running in island mode and the generator
breaker is closed.
Multiple gensets with power management
(PMS)
PMS (= Power Management System) is a system that
will automatically start and stop generators based on
the actual load dependency. This will be done through
a PMS communication between the different units
connected.
PMS applications are always in combination with
AUTO mode. If the SEMI-AUTO mode is selected,
the PMS operation will NOT function! The
Qc4002™ MkII controllers from the gensets need to
be programmed as PMS in AUTO mode. When a Qc
Mains controller is installed this needs to be
programmed in the application that is required (AMF,
LTO, FP, MPE) and AUTO mode.
By programming the parameters in
AUTO mode, the generator can
start up immediately. It is
recommended to place the generator
in SEMI-AUTO mode while
programming all the PMS
parameters!
Installations are possible with stand-alone generators
or with the Mains (extra Qc4002™ MkII Mains is
then needed). A number of Qc4002™ MkII units are
being used in the power management application, i.e.
one for each mains breaker (Qc4002™ MkII mains
controller), if installed, and one for each generator
(Qc4002™ MkII genset controller). All units
communicate by means of an internal CANbus
connection.
In an application with PMS it is important to program
correctly the Start and Stop signals between the
different generators because of the following reasons:
– The maximum load step needs to be programmed
in the Qc4002™ MkII controllers. This never may
exceed the power reserve of the running
generators. Otherwise the gensets will go in
overload with a sudden max. load increase before
the next generator is started up and connected to
the busbar.
– To prevent the gensets to run in a start - stop loop.
The start signal is the value of the maximum required
load step.
The stop signal is the value when the generator should
be stopped automatically.
- 84 -
Example: Installation with 3 gensets
G1 = 300 kW; G2 = 200 kW; G3 = 200 kW.
– Start signal is set at 90 kW (maximum load step
< 90 kW).
Start signal if:
Total Power needed > (total available power of
running gensets -set point start signal).
• Only G1 is running; at 210 kW load (300 kW
- 90 kW) => G2 will be started.
• G1 & G2 are running; at 410 kW load (200 kW
+ 300 kW - 90 kW) => G3 will be started.
– Stop signal is set at 100 kW and priority is set as
(high) G1 > G2 > G3 (low).
Stop signal if:
Total Power needed < (Total available power of
running gensets - Power of generator with lowest
priority - set point stop signal).
• G1 & G2 & G3 are running; at 400 kW
(700 kW - 200 kW - 100 kW) => G3 will be
stopped.
• G1 & G2 are running; at 200 kW (500 kW -
200 kW - 100 kW) => G2 will be stopped.

1. Each installation has to be prepared and reviewed very carefully before start-up. Wrong or incomplete wiring can damage the
installation brutally!
2. Each application requires a specific combination of the following parameters:
- Auto/ Semi-auto / Test / Manual / Block mode.
- Island / AMF / PS / FP / LTO / MPE / PMS / TM application type (in AUTO mode PS / FP / LTO can be combined with AMF).
- Back synchronising enabled/disabled (parameter channel 7080).
Wrong parameter settings can damage the installation brutally!
3. To be able to start up in cold conditions, parameter 6181 (Start prepare) can be changed to a higher value to have some
preheating. Do not put this value above 60 seconds to avoid any possible damage.

5.1.1 Use of maintenance schedule
The maintenance schedule contains a summary of the
maintenance instructions. Read the respective section
before taking maintenance measures.
When servicing, replace all disengaged packing, e.g.
gaskets, O-rings, washers.
For engine maintenance refer to Engine Operation
Manual.
The maintenance schedule has to be seen as a
guideline for units operating in a dusty environment
typical to generator applications. Maintenance
schedule can be adapted depending on application,
environment and quality of maintenance.
5.1.2 Use of service paks
Service Paks include all genuine parts needed for
normal maintenance of both generator and engine.
Service Paks minimize downtime and keep your
maintenance budget low.
The order number of the Service Paks are listed in the
Atlas Copco Parts list (ASL). Order Service Paks at
your local Atlas Copco dealer.
5.2 Preventing low loads
5.2.1 General
All engine parts are designed with tolerances to allow
work under full load conditions. When operating at
low load, these tolerances allow more lube oil to pass
between valve guides, stems, liners and pistons due to
the lower engine temperatures.
Lower combustion pressure has an influence on the
piston ring operation and the combustion
temperature. Low boost pressure will cause oil
leakage over the turbo shaft seal.
5.2.2 Risks of low load operation
– Cylinder glazing: the cylinder bore troughs
become filled with lacquer, displacing oil and thus
preventing correct ring lubrication.
– Bore polishing: the bore surface becomes
polished, all peaks and most troughs become worn
away, also preventing correct ring lubrication.
– Heavy carbon buildup: on pistons, piston ring
grooves, valves and turbo charger. Carbon
buildup on pistons can cause seizure when later
operating at full load.
– High oil consumption: prolonged no-load/low
load operation of the engine may cause it to blue/
gray smoke at low rpm with an associated increase
in oil consumption
– Low combustion temperature: this will result in
insufficiently burnt fuel, which will cause diluting
of the lube oil. Also, unburnt fuel and lube oil can
enter the exhaust manifold and eventually leak out
through joints in the exhaust manifold.
– Risk for fire
5.2.3 Best practices
Reduce the low load periods to a minimum. This
should be achieved by adequately sizing the unit for
the application.
It is recommended that a unit is always used with a
load > 30% of nominal. Corrective actions should be
taken if due to circumstances this minimum load
capacity cannot be obtained.
Operate the unit at full load capacity after any low
load operating period. Therefore, connect the unit
periodically to a load bank. Increase the load in steps
of 25% every 30 minutes and allow the unit to run for
1 hour in full load condition. Gradually return the unit
to the operating load.
The interval between load bank connections may vary
according to the conditions present on site and the
amount of load. However, a rule of thumb is to
connect a unit to a load bank after every maintenance
operation.
Units equipped with Qc4002™ MkII and operating in
parallel with the Mains may be placed in Fixed Power
or Test mode without the requirement of a load bank.
If the engine is installed as a stand-by generator, then
it should be operated at full load for at least 4 hrs/year.
If periodic tests are performed on a regular basis
without load, these should not exceed 10 min. Full
load tests help to clean out the carbon deposits in the
engine and exhaust system and evaluate the engine’s
performance. To avoid potential problems during the
test, load should be gradually increased.
In rental applications (where the load is often an
unknown factor) units should be tested at full load
after each rental job or every 6 months, whichever
comes first.
For more info, please contact your Atlas Copco
Service Center.
When a failure occurs and is deemed
due to low load operation, the
repairs fall outside warranty
coverage.

Glycol concentration measurement
– To optimise the unique engine protection features
of the PARCOOL EG the concentration of the
Glycol in the water should be always above
33 vol.%.
– Mixtures with more than 68 vol.% mix ratio in
water are not recommended, as this will lead to
high engine operating temperatures.
– A refractometer can be ordered from Atlas Copco
with part number 2913 0028 00.
In case of a mix of different coolant
products this type of measurement
might provide incorrect values.
5.4.3.2 Topping up of coolant
– Verify if the engine cooling system is in a good
condition (no leaks, clean,...).
– Check the condition of the coolant.
– If the condition of the coolant is outside the limits,
the complete coolant should be replaced (see
section “Replacing the coolant”).
– Always top-up with PARCOOL EG.
– Topping up the coolant with water only, changes
the concentration of additives and is therefore not
allowed.
5.4.3.3 Replacing the coolant
Drain
– Completely drain the entire cooling system.
– Used coolant must be disposed or recycled in
accordance with laws and local regulations.
Flush
– Flush twice with clean water. Used coolant must
be disposed or recycled in accordance with laws
and local regulations.
– From the Atlas Copco Instruction book, determine
the amount of PARCOOL EG required and pour
into the radiator top tank.
– It should be clearly understood that the risk for
contamination is reduced in case of proper
cleaning.
– In case a certain content of ‘other’ coolant remains
in the system, the coolant with the lowest
properties influences the quality of the ‘mixed’
coolant.

– To assure proper operation and the release of
trapped air, run the engine until normal engine
operation temperature is reached. Turn off the
engine and allow to cool.

5.5.2.2 Activating a dry-charged battery
– Take out the battery.
– Battery and electrolyte must be at equal
temperature above 10°C.
– Remove cover and/or plug from each cell.
– Fill each cell with electrolyte until the level
reaches 10 to 15 mm above the plates, or to the
level marked on the battery.
– Rock the battery a few times so that possible air
bubbles can escape; wait 10 minutes and check the
level in each cell once more; if required, add
electrolyte.
– Refit plugs and/or cover.
– Place the battery in the generator.
5.5.2.3 Recharging a battery
Before and after charging a battery, always check the
electrolyte level in each cell; if required, top up with
distilled water only. When charging batteries, each
cell must be open, i.e. plugs and/or cover removed.
Use a commercial automatic battery
charger according to its
manufacturer’s instructions.
Apply with preference the slow charging method and
adjust the charge current according to the following
rule of thumb: battery capacity in Ah divided by 20
gives safe charging current in Amp.
5.5.2.4 Make-up distilled water – If doubtful conditions are noticed or malfunctions
The amount of water evaporating from batteries is arise, keep in mind that the cause may be in the
largely dependant on the operating conditions, i.e. electrical system, e.g. loose terminals, voltage
temperatures, number of starts, running time between regulator maladjusted, poor performance of
start and stop, etc... generator, etc...
If a battery starts to need excessive make-up water,
this points to overcharging. Most common causes are
high temperatures or a too high voltage regulator
setting.
If a battery does not need any make-up water at all
over a considerable time of operation, an
undercharged battery condition may be caused by
poor cable connections or a too low voltage regulator
setting.
5.5.2.5 Periodic battery service
– Keep the battery clean and dry.
– Keep the electrolyte level at 10 to 15 mm above
the plates or at the indicated level; top up with
distilled water only. Never overfill, as this will
cause poor performance and excessive corrosion.
– Record the quantity of distilled water added.
– Keep the terminals and clamps tight, clean, and
lightly covered with petroleum jelly.
– Carry out periodic condition tests. Test intervals
of 1 to 3 months, depending on climate and
operating conditions, are recommended.

5.6.3 Engine coolant specifications
Never remove the cooling system
filler cap while coolant is hot.
The system may be under pressure.
Remove the cap slowly and only
when coolant is at ambient
temperature. A sudden release of
pressure from a heated cooling
system can result in personal injury
from the splash of hot coolant.
It is strongly recommended to use
Atlas Copco branded coolant.
The use of the correct coolant is important for good
heat transfer and protection of liquid-cooled engines.
Coolants used in these engines must be mixtures of
good quality water (distilled or de-ionised), special
coolant additives and if necessary freeze protection.
Coolant that is not to manufacturer's specification will
result in mechanical damage of the engine.
The freezing point of the coolant must be lower than
the freezing point that can occur in the area. The
difference must be at least 5°C. If the coolant freezes,
it may crack the cylinder block, radiator or coolant
pump.
Consult the engine's operation manual and follow the
manufacturer's directions.
Never mix different coolants and
mix the coolant components outside

6.4.2.1 Alarm handling
When an alarm occurs, the unit will automatically go
to the alarm list and display the alarm. The alarm LED
will be flashing.
If reading of the alarms is not desired, use the BACK
push button to exit the alarm list. To enter the alarm
list later, press the RESET HORN push button for 2
seconds to jump directly to the alarm list reading.
The alarm list contains both acknowledged and
unacknowledged alarms, provided that they are still
active (i.e. the alarm condition is still present). Once
an alarm is acknowledged and the condition has
disappeared, the alarm will no longer be displayed in
the alarm list. This means that if there are no alarms,
the alarm list will be empty.
This display example below indicates an
unacknowledged alarm. The display can show only
one alarm at a time. Therefore, all other alarms are
hidden.

7 Storage of the generator
7.1 Storage
– Store the generator in a dry, frost-free room which
is well ventilated.
– Run the engine regularly, e.g. once a week, until it
is warmed up. If this is impossible, extra
precautions must be taken:
• Consult the engine’s operator manual.
• Remove the battery. Store it in a dry, frost-free
room. Keep the battery clean and its terminals
lightly covered with petroleum jelly. Recharge
the battery regularly.
• Clean the generator and protect all electrical
components against moisture.
• Place silica gel bags, VCI paper (Volatile
Corrosion Inhibitor) or another drying agent
inside the generator and close the doors.
• Stick sheets of VCI paper with adhesive tape
on the bodywork to close off all openings.
• Wrap the generator, except the bottom, with a
plastic bag.
7.2 Preparing for operation after
storage
Before operating the generator again, remove the
wrapping, VCI paper and silica gel bags and check the
generator thoroughly (go through the checklist
“Before starting” on page 30).
– Consult the engine’s operator manual.
– Check that the insulation resistance of the
generator exceeds 2 MΩ.
– Replace the fuel filter and fill the fuel tank. Vent
the fuel system.
– Reinstall and connect the battery, if necessary
after being recharged.
– Submit the generator to a test run.

8 Disposal
8.1 General
When developing products and services, Atlas Copco
tries to understand, address, and minimize the
negative environmental effects that the products and
services may have, when being manufactured,
distributed, and used, as well as at their disposal.
Recycling and disposal policy are part of the
development of all Atlas Copco products. Atlas
Copco company standards determine strict
requirements.
Selecting materials the substantial recyclability, the
disassembly possibilities and the separability of
materials and assemblies are considered as well as the
environmental perils and dangers to health during the
recycling and disposal of the unavoidable rates of not
recyclable materials.
Your Atlas Copco generator consists for the most part
of metallic materials, that can be remelted in
steelworks and smelting works and that is therefore
almost infinite recyclable. The plastic used is
labelled; sorting and fractioning of the materials for
recycling in the future is foreseen.
This concept can only succeed with your
help. Support us by disposing
professionally. By assuring a correct
disposal of the product you help to
prevent possible negative consequences
for environment and health, that can
occur with an inappropriate waste
handling.
Recycling and re-usage of material helps
to preserve natural resources.
- 118 -
8.2 Disposal of materials
Dispose contaminated substances and material
separately, according to local applicable
environmental legislation.
Before dismantling a machine at the end of its
operating lifetime drain all fluids and dispose of
according the applicable local disposal regulations.
Remove the batteries. Do not throw batteries into the
fire (explosion risk) or into the residual waste.
Separate the machine into metal, electronics, wiring,
hoses, insulation and plastic parts.
Dispose all components according to the applicable
disposal regulations.
Remove spilled fluid mechanically; pick up the rest
with absorbing agent (for example sand, sawdust) and
dispose it according the applicable local disposal
regulations. Do not drain into the sewage system or
surface water.

1) Reference conditions for engine performance to ISO 3046-1.
2) See derating diagram or consult the factory for other conditions.
3) At reference conditions unless otherwise stated.
4) Rating definition (ISO 8528-1):
LTP: Limited Time Power is the maximum electrical power which a generating set is capable of delivering (at variable load), in the event of a
utility power failure (for up to 500 hours per year of which a maximum of 300 hours is continuous running). No overload is permitted on these
ratings. The alternator is peak continuous rated (as defined in ISO 8528-3) at 25°C.
PRP: Prime Power is the maximum power available during a variable power sequence, which may be run for an unlimited number of hours per
year, between stated maintenance intervals and under the stated ambient conditions. A 10% overload is permitted for 1 hour in 12 hours. The
permissible average power output during a 24h period shall not exceed the stated load factor as indicated above.
