1.4 Safety standards

- Read all the information contained in this manual and
in the installation manual carefully; it is essential for the
correct installation and use of the generator and enables
appropriate action to be taken in good time if it is
required.
- Do not allow unauthorised persons to use the genera-
tor and do not allow anyone to use the generator without
adequate training.
- Prevent children or animals from approaching the
generator whilst it is in operation.
- Do not approach the generator or remote control panel
if your hands or any other part of your body is wet as the
generator can be a source of electric shocks if it is
incorrectly used.
- Switch off and lock out the engine before carrying out
checks on the generator; only expert personnel are
authorised to check the generator whilst it is operating.
- Do not breath in the combustion fumes as they contain
harmful substances.
If oil or fuel leaks occur, clean
them thoroughly in order not create a fire hazard.
Do not use water to put out fires:
use extinguishers.

2 GENERATOR DESCRIPTION

2.1 Introduction

The IS series generators have been designed for easy
installation on boats.
The soundproofed structure has been obtained with
soundproofed panels in marine aluminium that provide
easy access to the engine and the alternator for mainte-
nance and inspections whilst at the same time consider-
ably reducing noise levels.
The direct-injection 4-stroke diesel engine by Yanmar is
extremely reliable and hardwearing. The 4-pole syn-
chronous alternator has no brushes and has an elec-
tronic voltage adjuster (SR7) that guarantees that fluc-
tuations from nominal voltage are no greater than ± 5%.
The alternator's great surge capacity makes the genera-
tor ideal for supplying the electric motors of conditioners,
desalination units, compressors, etc.
IS 11-13.5, 15-18.5 and 21-23 generators have a local
control panel [fig.1 ref.9] on which the controls and
control instruments are located.

2.2 Generator composition

The generator consists of:
- a soundproofing structure [fig.1 ref.10];
- an engine [fig.1 ref.11];
- an alternator unit [fig.1 ref.12];
- a water - water exchanger [fig.1 ref. 13];
- an air water - exchanger [fig.1 ref.14];
- a wooden support base [fig.1 ref.15];

2.3 Cooling system

The generator engine is cooled by a closed liquid circuit
with a liquid -sea water heat exchanger.
The exchanger is in cupronickel and has been specially
designed by mase to enable the engine to be used for
marine applications.
When installing it, a circuit must also be fitted that takes
up the cooling sea water and a system must be installed
that discharges the combustion fumes and the water
that has been used for cooling.

2.4 Control panel

A control panel is located on the generator to enable
checks to be made and the generator to be started up
and stopped. An engine overload protection module [fig.
2, ref. 1] manages generator overload protection, cuts
out the engine in the event of a fault and sends an alarm
signal by means of the warning lights.
-If the green warning light "RUN" [fig. 2, ref. 2] is lit up it
means that the generator is running and that no operat-
ing fault has been detected.
