CONNECTION INFORMATION

Power is not required when the unit is in operation. Internal Battery charging and radiant heat during operation eliminate the need for these devices.

It is recommended that units utilizing an automatic transfer switch with adjustable time delays have the initial adjustments made prior to startup.

Your new Baldor Pow'R Gard Generator has all interconnecting wiring terminated at a junction box. All wiring will be clearly labeled as being load, remote start contacts and AC input terminals and are to be connected as described below. LOAD - These connections are rated and sized according to the KW of the generator. Proper lead wire from these points to the automatic transfer switch (or load switching device) is mandatory. See enclosed transfer switch information for corresponding generator input terminals. REMOTE START CONTACTS - This two- wire connection, once connected to an appropriate switch, will start the generator and perform as described in the remote start/stop literature. These contacts are connected to the "Engine Start Contacts" of the automatic transfer switch. A Two Pole connection switch - normally open, closed to operate switch may also be used to start the generator. AC INPUT - These connections are for units with float type battery chargers or engine block heater combinations. A constant supply of 120 volts AC (or as specified) is needed at these terminals to power these devices.

Factory recommendations are: allow a 2- second delay on startup, 15- second delay on emergency to normal.

ENGINE GENERATOR SET PACKAGE

250/280 SERIES PRINCILE OF OPERATION The following information is based on the generator characteristics. Engine information is supplied in a separate manual. The 250/280 Series generator is a self-regulated, rotating field synchronous unit with the rotor having a salient pole construction with amortissure windings. The generator stator and exciter stator are combined in a common housing. The generator field, exciter rotor and rotating rectifier assembly are mounted on a common shaft. The output of the exciter rotor is applied to the generator field winding through a rotating, full wave bridge, and silicone rectifier unit. The exciter pole pieces contain residual magnetism, setting up lines of force across the air gap to the exciter armature. When the exciter armature begins to rotate, a voltage is induced and current flow is initiated in the exciter armature AC windings. This voltage is fed to the rotating rectifier assembly, to magnetize the laminated alternator field, which will set up lines of force across the air gap to the alternator stator. As the generator rotor rotates, a voltage will be induced and current will flow in the alternator stator windings and to the output circuit. All connections between the exciter stator windings and the generator stator windings are internally connected within the stator housing. Only the output power leads of the generator unit are brought out to the generator terminal box. INSTALLATION AND OPERATION DEFINITIONS: INTERNALLY REGULATED GENERATOR The internally regulated generator uses a

current transformer choke and a molded bridge rectifier in the excitation system. The no load voltage is determined by the thickness of the air gap in the choke. When load is applied the load current has an unloading effect on the choke thus giving an increasing excitation with load. It is also power factor sensitive. The system approximates plus or minus 4% voltage regulation.

EXTERNALLY REGULATED GENERATOR

The externally regulated generator uses an automatic voltage regulator semi-conductor type. A voltage-adjusting rheostat on the generator panel is used to set the voltage to the desired value. UNPACKING When unpacking, check for damage in shipping. Report any damage at once to delivering carrier. Read instruction tags shipped with the generator. INSTALLATION The generator must be properly aligned in a well-ventilated place where the air temperature will not exceed 40OC or 104OF, and should be accessible for cleaning. An open type generator should not be located where there are abrasive or conductive dusts, corrosive gases or fumes, or where excessive moisture may be encountered. A totally enclosed fan-cooled generator should be used where these conditions exist. Air openings of the generator should be cleaned frequently to remove accumulated dust and dirt, which may cause overheating and burn out.

WIRING CONNECTIONS

Electrical characteristics are shown on the nameplate. Refer to connection diagrams for proper electrical connections. Broad range 12 lead generators are suitable for various output potentials. Your generator has been factory connected for a particular voltage, specified with your order. STAND-BY UNITS Generators used as an auxiliary power source in case of commercial power failure must be isolated from the commercial line before being placed in operation. This is accomplished via interface with a properly rated transfer switch.

Make sure unit is completely shut down and free of any power source before attempting any repair or maintenance on the unit. PARALLEL OPERATION For parallel operation, both units must be of the same voltage, frequency, and phase. Phase voltages of paralleled units must be synchronized. Voltage regulators, engine governors, etc., must be of special specification, consult factory. ROTATION The generator can be operated in either direction of rotation. OVERLOAD The load on the generator should be checked with an AC ammeter to see that the ampere rating stamped on the nameplate is not exceeded. A prolonged overload on the generator may cause it to overhear and possible burn out.

OVERLOAD The load on the generator should be checked with an AC ammeter to see that the ampere rating stamped on the nameplate is not exceeded. A prolonged overload on the generator may cause it to overhear and possible burn out.

LUBRICATION Ball bearings on the 250/280 Series generators are pre-lubricated, double sealed and require no further lubrication for the life of the bearing. SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE AND OPERATING PRECAUTIONS Costly repairs and down time can usually be prevented by operating electrical equipment under conditions which are compatible with those of which the equipment was designed to operate. Follow the instructions as outlined to ensure maximum efficient utilization of the electrical equipment.

PRECAUTIONS – GENERATOR

WINDINGS (DRYING) Generators that have been in transit or storage for too long periods may be subjected to extreme temperature and moisture changes. This can cause excessive condensation, and the generator windings should be thoroughly dried out before bringing the generator up to full nameplate voltage. If this precaution is not taken, serious damage to the generator can result. The following steps should be taken to effectively dry the generator windings.

A. Place the generator in drying oven or

room. 9

B. Dry with a warm air blower directed

through windings. C. If the generator has been operated

and then put into storage for any period of time, an air-dry fungus resistant varnish can be applied.

Experience has shown that it is necessary to take these precautions in locations such as seaboard installations and other high humidity areas. Some installations will be in atmospheres that are much more corrosive than others. A little precaution along the lines outlined here could eliminate an unnecessary repair job. Each generator was subjected to a Hipot NEMA insulation test, which means 1000 volts plus twice the highest voltage for which the generator is rated was impressed between the winding and frame. All machines are insulated with a high safety factor for the class of insulation used. The latest and newest in insulation and baking techniques are used. The finest insulation job can be very quickly broken down by carelessly applying high voltage to windings in a moisture-saturated condition. Mishandling in this respect can easily cause a breakdown, making it necessary to return the generator to the factory for repair, and consequent expense and loss of time. SAE ENGINE DRIVEN GENERATOR

ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE 1. ROTOR ASSEMBLY The rotor assembly consists of a coupling hub, exciter armature, rotating field, 2 bridge rectifiers, heat sink and a bearing, all mounted on a common shaft.

COOLING Keep all cooling parts clean and make certain sufficient room is left on all sides for a plentiful supply of fresh coolant air flow. DO NOT EXCEED AIR TEMPERATURE RISE OF 50OC ABOVE A 40OC AMBIENT. This insures that the insulation life, NEMA Class “F” will not be damaged. DO NOT EXCEED RATED LOAD, except as specified for the equipment. OPERATE AT RATED SPEED. Failure to operate generators at rated load or speed will cause overheating and possibly damage to windings due to over voltage or current. BEARING PLACEMENT

Factory lubricated sealed bearings will normally provide many hours of trouble free service when operated under normal conditions. Excessive bearing load and

10

High voltage (dielectric) testing must not be performed to the machine without first observing NEMA rules. The insulation of this generator winding may be safely checked by using a Megger. A high Megger reading indicates low insulation leakage. Hipotential testing must not be applied in the field. This can be destruction to the insulation system of an otherwise acceptable unit.

adverse environment conditions will greatly shorten bearing life. Should bearing failure occur, bearings can be replaced. ALWAYS REPLACE WITH THE SAME TYPE BEARING AS INSTALLED AT THE FACTORY. CHECK PARTS LIST FOR PART NUMBER. Include generator serial number when ordering bearings. ROTATING DIODE BRIDGE The rotating diode bridge can be removed and replaced. Excessive over current, over voltage, over-speed, or reverse currents can cause damage to the assembly or any of the component parts. ROTOR DAMAGE The damper bars of the generator prevent excessive hunting when AC generators are operated in parallel. Because Damper Bars must have a low electrical resistance and are subjected to extreme centrifugal forces, they must be mechanically secure and permanent. Consequently, they are welded to end plates completely covering the field. All rotors are static and dynamically balanced to a high degree on precision machines to assure minimum vibration. They will, therefore, remain dynamically stable at speeds well beyond the synchronous speed of the generator. The rotors on generators are, however, subjected to extreme centrifugal

forces, which can increase beyond safe operating limits at excessive over-speed. Therefore, the prime mover should be adequately governed to prevent over-speed. Damage to the rotor can also occur due to overheating which can be caused by the airflow being restricted from dust or other foreign objects collecting in the air passage. If a rotor becomes defective, it should be returned to the factory with full nameplate data.

To repair a rotor, the special tooling and the technique of the factory is necessary and essential. Pow’R Gard facilities can perform a complete rebuild, or rewind job with greater skill and craftsmanship than can be found in the average motor rewind shop. Should a failure occur, notify the factory immediately. Steps will be taken to get the generator back into service with the least expense, and more important, to determine the cause of failure and take steps to prevent a recurrence. The rotor assembly attaches directly to the engine flywheel pilot by means of a multiple piece-coupling disc, which is fastened to the rotor coupling. The coupling disc assembly provides both alignment and flexibility. An aluminum fan (utilized for cooling) is mounted on the rotor-coupling hub prior to the coupling disc Assembly. Upon assembly, align the coupling disc mounting holes with the mating holes in the coupling hub. Place a locking type washer over each coupling bolt and insert the coupling hub holes. Tighten the hub fasteners in a diagonal sequence to 13 foot-pounds. After the flexible coupling and fan assembly is secured to the rotor hub, the complete rotor assembly is positioned

11

on the flywheel pilot. With flexible discs within the flywheel pilot, align the coupling holes with the mating holes in the flywheel. Insert a bolt and washer in each hole and tighten in a diagonal fashion to 13 foot-pounds. Bearing replacement may be accomplished with rotor mounted to engine. If excessive force is required in either removal or replacement of the bearing, rotor removal is recommended. 2. STATOR ASSEMBLY MOUNTING Carefully slide stator and adaptor assembly over the previously assembled rotor. Take extreme precautions to protect both the rotor and stator from damage. When the stator assembly is in the vicinity of the engine bell housing, make sure the pilots are mated, and the fastener holes are lined up. When all components are aligned, insert the correct bolt and lock washer into each bolt hole. Tighten in a diagonal sequence to 23 foot-pounds. 3. OUTBOARD BEARING BRACKET Align outer bearing race with bracket bearing recess. Start the bracket onto bearing. The bearing must have some resistance upon entering the bracket bearing recess. To seat the bearing bracket after the bearing has started into the recess, gently tap on the center of the bracket until the bracket approaches the stator housing. Align the bracket pilot with the stator housing and continue tapping on the bracket center until the bracket is seated on the stator housing.

An alternate method of installing your generator

to your engine is as follows:

With the rotor carefully installed into stator housing and bearing seated in the outboard bearing bracket, this assembly is then lifted into position and the coupling disc holes and stator housing holes are aligned with the engine’s mounting holes. Loosely bolt the coupling discs to the flywheel with flat washers. DO NOT USE lock washers for this purpose. Loosely bolt the stator housing to the engine's flywheel housing. Proceed in tightening all bolts to their appropriate torque values. This method may be used to help avoid damaging rotor and stator windings when assembling units separately. Extreme care must be used when handling generator components. Carelessness may result in damage of generator components.

4. COVER, STATOR END An enclosure consisting of a box, top cover, and louvered end panel are provided for generator protection. The box is positioned over the outboard bearing bracket and attached with appropriate hardware. The top cover and louvered panel are then installed (louver openings to the bottom of panel).

5. LOAD CONNECTION

When attaching permanent load wiring to this unit, please observe proper connection procedures, (See wiring diagrams). Use approved connectors and observe local and state electrical codes.

12

Receptacle-equipped units will be furnished with a “tempower” plug. This Hubbell number CS6369 receptacle may be used for powering temporary power distribution circuits as the Hubbell “spider” system. Equipped with the GFCI option, this plug will comply with OSHA’s Ground Fault Interrupter Code of 1977. 6. RESTORING RESIDUAL MAGNETISM A self-excited generator must have a certain amount of residual magnetism before it can build up voltage. This residual magnetism can be lost through long storage, mechanical shock, or on disassembly of the rotating field from the stator. INTERNALLY REGULATED MACHINE If 110 volt AC is not available but a 6 or 12-volt battery is, the procedure is as follows: Remove the F1 lead from the positive terminal of the bridge rectifier. Connect the negative of the battery to the positive terminal of the bridge rectifier. Connect the positive of the battery to the F1 lead. Run the unit and the voltage should be rated value or above. Return to normal connections. EXTERNALLY REGULATED MACHINE Remove the generator’s exciter field leads F1 and F2 from the solid-state regulator. With the unit at a standstill, apply the positive of a 12 volt DC or higher on F1 and the negative on F2. Maintain for a few seconds. Reconnect F1 and F2 to voltage regulator with F1 going to F+ and F2 going to F-. If residual is not restored, repeat procedure with a higher DC voltage source.

TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURES AC BRUSHLESS GENERATOR As with any machine, trouble may develop in electrical generators. It may be due to long service or neglect of regular maintenance, servicing and checking. Should trouble develop, the following instructions will be helpful in tracing the cause and making repairs. SPEED DEVIATIONS The generator speed should be maintained at rated nameplate speed. The frequency and voltage of the generator output depends on speed. If the generator runs slower than rated speed, the voltage will drop off.

The following pages contain valuable information to diagnose and treat common occurrences that may arise with your generator unit.

13

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

NO VOLTAGE CAUSE

Loss of residual magnetism in exciter field poles. Open in stator windings. *Open or short in rotating rectifier. Short-circuited. *Open in alternator field.

*Shorted exciter armature. *Shorted leads between exciter and generator field.

CHECK AND REMEDY Flash field. Check for continuity in windings. Return to factory for repair if open. Check rectifiers. Restore voltage buildup by clearing lead. Check for continuity and return rotor to factory for repair if field coils are open. Check for short and replace if faulty. Test and repair. NOTE: * Designates rotating parts. Generator must be open to test.

FLUCTUATING VOLTAGE

(May be indicated by flickering lights) CAUSE

Irregular speed of engine. Fluctuating speed. Loose terminal or load connections. Defective bearing causing uneven air gap.

CHECK AND REMEDY Check engine for malfunction or load for fluctuation. Stabilize load. The addition of a lamp load (resistance load) may compensate partially for load changes caused by intermittent motor operation. Do not overload. Make better connection mechanically and electrically. Replace worn bearing. 14

LOW VOLTAGE

CAUSE Excessive load. Low Speed. High resistance connections – connections will be warm or hot. Shorted field. Low power factor.

CHECK AND REMEDY Reduce load. With 3 phase generators, the load on each leg should be as evenly balanced as possible and should not exceed the rated current on any leg. Check engine for malfunction or system for overload. Make better connection electrically and Mechanically. Test field coils for possible short by checking resistance with an ohmmeter or resistance bridge. Return rotor assembly to factory for repair if alternator field coils are shorted. Reduce inductive (motor) load. Some AC motors draw approximately the same current regardless of load. Do not use motors of larger horsepower rating than is necessary to carry the mechanical load.

OVERHEATING

CAUSE

Generator overloaded. Clogged Ventilating Screen. High Room Temperature. Insufficient circulation Low power factor. Unbalanced load. Dry bearing.

CHECK AND REMEDY

Reduce load. (Check with ammeter and compare with nameplate rating. Clean air passages. Clean air passages. Provide cross-ventilation. Reduce inductive loads or install power factor improvement capacitors. The load on each leg should be as evenly balanced as possible and should not exceed the rated current on any leg. Replace bearing. 15

HIGH VOLTAGE CAUSE

Excessive speed

CHECK AND REMEDY Check engine for malfunction.

GENERATOR FRAME PRODUCES SHOCK WHEN TOUCHED CAUSE

Static charge. Grounded armature or field coil.

CHECK AND REMEDY Ground generator frame. Return to factory for repair.

MECHANICAL NOISE

CAUSE Defective bearing. Rotor scrubbing on stator. Loose laminations. Loose or misaligned coupling.

CHECK AND REMEDY Replace bearing. Bad bearing - replace. Bent shaft - return to factory. Loose end bell - tighten; Loose drive Discs - tighten. Return to factory for repair. Tighten; align.

during shipment. If found, report to freight company immediately and do not operate or take other action until an inspection has been done.

3. Refer to Battery Guide to assure that the proper size battery is installed correctly to your unit.

4. Check over generator and engine for any components that may have been jarred loose in shipment. Tighten if necessary. 5. Familiarize yourself with the Control

Panel. Check all gauges and refer to the owner/operator's manual.

6. Check exhaust system to assure it is in proper working order. 7. Check to see if your unit must be properly grounded prior to operation. If yes, do so. 8. Assure that Generator is securely

mounted on a suitable, level area that is properly ventilated.

9. Assure that generator is a safe distance

from any flammable or combustible material.

10. Check that Generator is at applicable Voltage Setting. 11. Connect load(s) to the Circuit Breaker and/or Transfer Switch. 12. Move the Master Control Switch to the appropriate position.

13.. Your generator is tested at the factory prior to

shipment to assure it is in proper working order. To do this, fresh lubricating oil and radiator coolant are added. However, the owner must fill both to proper operating levels per engine O & E manual prior to first-time operation and periodically each year.

Coolant: (Shipped full with 50/50 mix) top off with water. If more than one quart is needed, check for leaks and report to factory.

Oil: Initial break- in oil (15W/40) is in engine. Check level and top off if necessary.

14. Secure the generator for operation. Close all doors and be sure no hands are inside the generator enclosure when it starts.

High voltage is present when the generator set is running.

15. Refer to Manual for answers to any questions or concerns prior to operating generator.

OPERATION The Prime mover utilized in this power generating system is controlled via an engine control module. Starting is accomplished by commanding the control to "start" the engine. This command can be given by a number of controls;

o The operator control mounted on the front panel.

o The remote controls via the transfer

switch or remote start terminal. Initially, the system may be started and operated by placing the operation control in the "manual/Run" position. To cease operation, return the switch to the "off" position.

Clear unit of all loose objects and perform all "pre- start"

procedures before operating generator system. ENGINE CONTROL MODULE The Engine Control Module (E.C.M.) is a microprocessor based module that monitors the control and safety inputs and provides all the required START and STOP functions automatically. The following front panel controls and instruments are wired into the microprocessor through the E.C.M. terminal blocks: 1. RUN / OFF / AUTO SWITCH

A. "RUN" - run position causes the generator set to start and run immediately.

B. "AUTO" - auto position allows unit to be controlled via any remote single-pole "dry" contact (transfer switch, etc.). Contact closure causes the unit to start and run, while contact opening causes

unit to shut down after a preset cool down period. C. "OFF" - unit operation is terminated.

2. LAMP TEST A. Push button energizes all alarm lights simultaneously. This feature is disabled with the Run / stop / auto switch in the "stop" position and has no other effect on unit operation. SAFETY INPUTS

1. LOW OIL PRESSURE SHUT-DOWN (LOP)

Monitoring of oil pressure begins for a preset time after unit starts and remains in effect until unit is shut down (except as noted in "loss of frequency input". The LOP signal is derived from an oil pressure switch gauge mounted on the control panel.

2. HIGH TEMPERATURE SHUTDOWN (HT)

The engine temperature monitoring begins immediately with the start signal. However, if engine temperature is excessive prior to start (i.e. heat soak after shutdown), the unit is permitted to start. The High temperature condition is permitted to exist for up to 60 seconds after the unit is running before shutdown when alarm occurs. If the excessive temperature condition is corrected within that time period, the HT circuit reverts to normal monitoring. The HT signal is derived from a monitoring device located on the prime mover.

3. OVERSPEED ADJUSTMENT (OS) - OVER FREQUENCY

Overspeed protection is provided by a frequency sensing network within the

22

controller. The trip point of the frequency network is adjustable via a rheostat located on the top of the controller at the right hand side. Clockwise (CW) rotation increases the trip frequency and, thereby, raises the shutdown speed. CRANKING CONTROL 1. OVERCRANK PROTECTION This feature provides a preset second crank cycle. Failure of the engine to start by the end of the crank period results in an "overcrank" shutdown and alarm indication. 2. CRANKING DISCONNECT ADJUSTMENT (CDS ADJUSTMENT) The cranking disconnect signal is obtained by a frequency network within the controller. The trip point of the frequency network is not adjustable. LOSS OF FREQUENCY Internal protection against loss of frequency input to the cranking disconnect circuit is programmed in after the unit has started normally. In the event the frequency goes to zero (engine runs out of fuel, frequency signal source fails, etc.) the LOP shutdown circuit is bypassed and a 12-second wait period is initiated. If frequency returns within this time period, LOP monitoring resumes and operation continues normally. If frequency has not returned at the end of this time period, the engine oil pressure status is observed to determine whether the engine is actually running or stopped. If the engine has stopped (i.e. air in fuel, etc.) the cranking cycle will begin in an effort to restart the engine. If the engine has not stopped (loss of input signal, etc.) the unit is shut down with an "overcrank" indication and alarm.

"Overcrank" indication

can mean a loss of crank-disconnect signal during the previous run period. Attempting to restart the engine with no crank- disconnect can destroy the starter motor, which can cause serious personal injury. This is of particular note since the tendency is to pursue only cranking and start related faults. The cranking disconnect signal source is a key component in this system and must be checked out thoroughly whenever an "overcrank" shutdown occurs.

The controller does not Provide protection against

loss of signal during startup. A shutdown with alarm, due to any of the above conditions, will prevent any subsequent operation of the generator set. The run- stop-auto selector switch on the control panel must be momentarily placed in the "stop" position to reset these functions. If a dead battery is suspected, remove controller fuse, Replace with new battery and attempt starting. Damage to engine control may result from jump-starting.
