Output Ratings
The following 3 phase ratings are available:
50Hz 415/240V 400/230V 380/220V 230/115V 220/110V 60HHz 480/277V 440/254V 415/240V 400/230V 380/220V 240/120V 230/115V 220/127V 220/110V

Engine
Deutz heavy duty industrial diesel engine (technical details are supplied on the reverse of this sheet). Lube oil drain valve fitted as standard.
Governor
Compliant with BS5514, Class A1. Mechanical standard on C1 engines. Electrical Governing Standard on C2 and CP engines.
Electrical system
24 volt DC. Energised to run shutdown solenoid. Oil pressure and water temperature shutdown switches and gauge senders.

Alternator
Newage alternators have been carefully selected to match the overload performance of the engine and incorporate the following: screen protected and drip-proof, self exciting, self regulating brushless alternator with fully interconnected damper windings, IC06 cooling system and sealed-for- life bearings, 12 wire reconnectable windings provide a wide range of 3 phase voltage.
Insulation System
The insulation system is class H. All windings are impregnated in either a triple dip thermo-setting moisture, oil and acid resisting polyester varnish or vacuum pressure impregnated with a special polyester resin. Heavy coat of anti-tracking varnish for additional protection against moisture or condensation.
Electrical Characteristics
Electrical design in accordance with BS5000 Part 99, IEC34-1, VDEO530, UTE5100, NEMA MG-122, CEMA, CSA 22.2 and AS1359.
Automatic Voltage Regulator
The fully sealed automatic voltage regulator maintains the voltage within the limits of +/-1.5% from no load to full load including cold to hot variations at any power factor between 0.8 lagging and unity and inclusive of a speed variation of 4.0%. Nominal adjustment is by means of a trimmer incorporated in the AVR.
Radio Interference
Suppression is in line with the provisions of BS EN 50081 and VDE Class G.

Control System
Set mounted, manually operated control panel of fabricated sheet steel construction with a hinged lockable door. The control panel is isolated from the engine and comprises of the following instrumentation and controls: Oil pressure gauge, water temperature gauge, battery charge ammeter, voltmeter and selector switch, ammeter and selector switch, frequency meter and hours couter. A key start control module and emergency stop button are fitted as standard.
Shutdown Protection Devices with Indicators for:
High Coolant Temperature Low Oil Pressure
Circuit Breaker
3 Pole moulded case circuit breaker mounted on the baseframe in a sheet steel box with adequate access for incoming and outgoing cables.

Fuel System
The baseframe design incorporates an integral fuel tank with a capacity of between 5-7 hours. The tank is supplied complete with level indicator, fuel fill cap, bosses for vent, drain and remote fuel tank connections and fuel feed and return lines to engine.

Cooling Radiator
Radiator and cooling fan complete with protection guards, designed to cool the engine at specified output, in air-on temperatures up to 50 degrees C (122 degrees F) Coolant drain valve fitted as standard.

Engine Filtration System
Sealed paper mesh type dry air filters. Cartridge type fuel filters. Full flow lube oil filters. All filters have replaceable elements.

Exhaust System
Heavy duty industrial capacity exhaust silencer. Stainless steel exhaust bellows.

Electrical System
24 Volt system with battery charging alternator, axial type starter motor, high capacity maintenance free lead acid starting batteries, battery rack mounted on the generator set baseframe, and heavy duty interconnecting cables with terminations.

Mounting Arrangement
Baseframe
The complete generator set is mounted, as a whole, on a heavy duty fabricated, welded steel baseframe. The baseframe incorporates specially designed lifting eyes. Coupling
The engine and alternator are directly coupled by means of an SAE flange so that there is no possibility of misalignment after prolonged use. The engine flywheel is flexibly coupled to the alternator rotor and a full torsional analysis has been carried out to guarantee no harmful vibration will occur in the assembly.
Anti-Vibration Mounting Pads
Anti-Vibration pads are affixed between engine/alternator feet and the baseframe thus ensuring complete vibration isolation of the rotating assemblies.
Safety Guards
The fan, fan drive and battery charging alternator drive are fully guarded for personnel protection. A stone guard protects the radiator core from accidental damage.

General Arrangment
The generator set is designed and constructed for installation in a weather-protected building. Various types of weatherproof and sound attenuated enclsures are available.

Documentation
A full set of opertion and maintance manuals and circuit wiring diagrams.

Factory Tests
The generator set is load tested before despatch. All protective devices, control functions are simulated and the generator and its systems checked, proved and then passed for despatch. A test certificate is provided as standard.

Equipment Finish
Primer on all equipment. Final coat to manufacturer's standard.

Quality Standards
The equipment meets the following standardsē BS4999, BS5000, BS5514, IEC 34, VDE0530, NEMA MG-122

Product Endorsement
All equipment is guaranteed for a period of 12 months from date of commissioning, or 18 months from date of ex works shipment, whichever occurs first. Where equipment is supplied by an authorised Broadcrown Distributor or Dealer, the 12 month guarantee period will commence from the date of delivery to the first retail purchaser or 18 months from date of ex works shipment, whichever occurs first. Equipment must only be used in accordance with recommended operating practices and subject to any specified load limitation.

Miscellaneous
Shrink wrapped for export.
