Operation

NOTICEFor safety reasons, the battery isolator will be turned off prior to delivery. It is recommended that this action is repeated when moving the generator or for long term storage.

OperationThe guidelines for operating the generator are outlined in the section.

The HRD 1500rpm range of generators are resiliently enclosed within an acoustically treated housing providing noise attenuation. Large access doors on both sides enable ease of servicing and maintenance in a tight space.

The HRD range utilises a standard control panel using a Deep Sea Electronics 7310 (DSE7310) controller.

The Deep Sea controller can be confi gured for local and remote operation.

When confi gured for local operation the operator can stop and start the set and monitor the generator and engine condition at the set using the green start and red stop buttons and instrument panel on the DSE7310 control module.

When confi gured for remote start the 3 pin socket on the output panel is used to connect the set to a remote Automatic Mains Failure (AMF) panel or timer volt free switch. The switched connection can then transmit a start and stop signal to the DSE7310 to initiate the generator’s start up or shutdown procedure. In order to action this signal the DSE7310 will need to be placed in AUTO mode.

2. Allow the generator to run off load for 2 minutes to cool down.

3. Press the red stop/reset button on the DSE7310 moudle or if being operated remotely the Stop signal will be transmitted to the DSE7310

4. The engine will then stop after the shutdown process and cool down period is competed.

Shutdown Protections

The generator is fi tted with the following protection devices that will shut down the generator in the event of a fault. They are indicated on the engine control module.

Charge Fail: Operates if the battery is not charging, this could be caused by parasitic drain (leaving engine control module illuminated), generator inactivity, or faulty alternator charging.

Low Oil Pressure: This operates if the oil pressure falls below a safe level. This can be caused by a lack of oil, wrong type of oil or high temperature. Check and top up the oil level as necessary. During starting, the alarm is held off for 10 seconds to allow the oil pressure to build up to normal running level. The engine will not crank if there is a false oil pressure signal prior to starting.

Low Fuel Level: The fuel gauge also incorporates a low fuel shutdown facility. The set will give a warning and then shut down when the level falls to approximately 10-12% of its capacity, thus eliminating the need to bleed the system at restart.

High Engine Temperature: If the temperature is out side the value programmed into the controller the generator will close down.

Place the generator on a level surface, and place a suitable container under the generator at the service access panel side of the generator.

Remove the oil fi ller cap / dipstick.

Drain the oil into the suitable container.

Follow HSE recommendations regarding the handling

and disposal of contaminated oil products.

The oil fi lter element is a replacement type, and should be replaced in line with the procedure below

Replace components in reverse order.

Fill with recommended oil to the max level shown on the dipstick.

Coolant Level Check

Check the coolant level daily and top up if necessary.

Check the radiator and hoses for signs of damage or leaks. Check the cap and seal for signs of damage. Clean the radiator matrix of leaves or similar debris.

Check the coolant level when the engine is stationary and on a level surface.

The radiator should be fi lled to typically 1 cm above the core of the radiators matrix. If the engine has an expansion bottle, the coolant level should be fi lled as marked on the expansion bottle or label.

Top or change with a Coolant Mixture in line with the Engine manufacturers guidelines. Never use neat antifreeze.

If fi tted, DO NOT use the expansion bottle to decide if the radiator needs topping up.

Drain the waste fl uids into suitable waste containers, and follow HSE recommendations regarding the handling and disposal of contaminated oil products. Check the radiator and hoses for signs of damage or leaks.

Cooling System Coolant Change

Clean the cooling system and fl ush the coolingsystem as as specifi ed by the engine manufacturer’s maintenance interval or as necessary.

Check that the positive and negative terminals are tight and secure, and free from corrosion. Lightly coat them with petroleum jelly or similar to protect from corrosion.

Check that the battery securing strap or bracket is tight and the battery is held fi rmly.

Engine Air Cleaner Service Indicator Check

The differential gauge for inlet air pressure displays the difference in the pressure that is measured before the air cleaner element and the pressure that is measured after the air cleaner element. As the air cleaner element becomes dirty, the pressure differential rises.

The service indicator is mounted on the air cleaner element or in a remote location. The air cleanerelement should be cleaned or the air cleaner elementshould be replaced when one of the followingconditions occur:

• The yellow diaphragm enters the red zone.• The red piston locks in the visible position.

Refer to Engine Manufacturer’s O&M for full information about checking the Service Indicator.

Engines Glow Plugs

With the engine starting normally measure thecurrent being drawn by each glow plug or heaterto confi rm operational.

Replace them periodically as recommended in the engine manufacturer’s manual.

Check Operation of MCBs and MCCB

No maintenance can be carried out on these other than a physical check to ensure they latch in the On position and no sign of external damage can be seen.

Alternator Fan Belt Check and Adjust

To maximize the engine performance, inspect thebelts for wear and for cracking. Replace belts that areworn or damaged. Refer to Engine Manufacturer’s O&M for full information about checking and adjusting the Fan Belt.

Radiator

Inspect the radiator for these items: Damaged fi ns,corrosion, dirt, grease, insects, leaves, oil, and otherdebris. Clean the radiator, if necessary.

Engine Air Cleaner Check/Replace

The Air Cleaner has a Dual Element fi ltering system.

If the air cleaner element becomes blocked, the air pressure can split the material of the air cleaner element. Unfi ltered air will drastically accelerate internal engine wear.

• Check the precleaner (if equipped) and the dust bowl daily for accumulation of dirt and debris.Remove any dirt and debris, as needed.

• Operating conditions (dust, dirt and debris) may require more frequent service of the air cleanerelement.

Harrington Generators International

37HRD Events Diesel Generator 498-1069

Maintenance

• The air cleaner element should be replaced at least one time per year. This replacement should be performed regardless of the number of cleanings.

Replace the dirty air cleaner elements with clean air cleaner elements.

The primary air cleaner element can be cleaned and used for up to six times

1. Remove the cover. Remove the primary air cleaner element.

2. The secondary air cleaner element should be removed and discarded for every three cleanings of the primary air cleaner element.

3. Clean the primary element by using pressurised air or a vacuum cleaner.

4. Cover the air inlet with tape in order to keep dirt out.

5. Clean the inside of the air cleaner cover and body with a clean, dry cloth.

6. Remove the tape for the air inlet. Install the sec-ondary air cleaner element. Install a primary air cleaner element that is new or cleaned.

7. Install the air cleaner cover.

8. Reset the air cleaner service indicator.

Adjust Valve Clearance

Valve Clearances should be checked after the fi rst 12 months or 1000hrs and reset in accordance with the engine manufacutrer’s guidelines. Refi t the rocker cover with a new gasket.

Alternator

Ensure that the cooling air vents do not become blocked by dirt, debris etc. and that the cooling fan is not damaged. Service in line with alternator manufac-turer’s guidelines.

Control Module Safety Shut Down

This module will prevent the generator from starting or shut it down if faults occur. Check the following:-

Hours Run Counter; confi rm counter is working.

Emergency Stop: with the engine running use the E-Stop Button. The engine should stop and the E-Stop alarm should be seen.

Terminal Door Safety Switch: with the engine running open the Terminal Output Pod cover. The engine should stop and the E-Stop alarm should be seen.

Low Fuel Level; With the engine running allow the fuel tank to run out of fuel and the engine should stop and the Low Oil alarm should be seen. Refi ll with fuel and the engine should start and run normally.

Battery Charger

Stop and start the engine a few times if needed to draw off the battery.

Start the engine and allow running for 5 minutes, then checking that the battery charger is delivering at least 13.2V DC into the battery.

Starter Motor

These are normally sealed for life but should be inspected and serviced in accordance with the engine manufacturers instructions.

Engine Valve Lash Inspection/Replace

Refer the the Engine Manufacturer’s instructions for performing this maintenance activity.

Exhaust System

Inspect the exhaust system and silencer at the fl exible sections and joints in particular.

Check the exhaust is adequately supported and secured. Check for leaks and signs of burning of the insulation. Replace insulation if necessary.

If the engine has run on low load for a considerable period the exhaust may be sooted up. Run the engine on low load for 10 minutes and gradually increase to full load for 30 minutes to blow and burn any soot out of the exhaust. Care should be taken that hot soot does not land on combustible material.

Harrington Generators International

38 HRD Events Diesel Generator 498-1069

Maintenance

Canopy

Check security of fi xings and fasteners on the machine. Lubricate hinges and latches with light machine oil.

Ensure that the inlet and outlet louvres are kept clean and unimpeded at all times. Check that no sound insulation has become loose and obstructed them.

General Inspections Inspect generally for:-

Fuel and Oil Leaks: Look for excessive oil in the base tray. Look for weeps from fuel hoses and connections. Check the insulation is dry and not contaminated with fuel or oil.

Worn or Failed Anti Vibration Mounts: When the side panels are removed rock the engine and check all four anti vibration mounts are fl exing slightly and have not failed or broken up.

Damaged or missing insulation and seals: Generally look at the sound insulation and seals and check it is still securely fi tted and has not deteriorated.

Hoses and Clamps: Inspect all hoses for leaks that are caused by the following conditions:• Cracking• Softness• Loose clamps

Replace hoses that are cracked or soft. Tighten anyloose clamps.

Missing Safety Labels: These labels are a mandatory safety requirement and if any are missing or not easy to read they should be replaced. Full details of all labels are contained in this manual. A replacement label kit is available.

Chaffi ng or Stretching of Cables: Inspect all cables and connections and look for obvious signs of wear or damage.

Lifting Points: Inspect the lifting points for obvious signs of wear, damage or distortion.

Signs of Over Heating: Look for obvious deterioration due to heat and investigate the cause and rectify as necessary.

Fuel Cap: Check the cap seals correctly. Check for obvious signs of fuel spillage.

Electrical:• Inspect sockets, and replace if damaged or

contact pins are burnt. • Check all wiring is secure and not damaged. • Check the output voltage and frequency are

correct. • Check the earth continuity between the socket

earth pins and the generator frame.

Run on ¼, ½, ¾ then full load Operating the generator at low load levels for extended periods can result in high levels of carbon build up in the engine and exhaust system which can lead to excessive smoking, reduced effi ciency and overheating. Looking at the silencer’s outlet will give some indication this has happened.

After each service the generator should be run fi rst on ¼, then ½, then ¾ and fi nally full load using a load bank, to burn out any deposits of soot in the engine and silencer.

Each level of load should be applied for at least 10 minutes or until the exhaust is clear of soot and smoke. If you suspect the engine is badly sooted, DO NOT apply full load but build the load up gradually.

It should be anticipated that hot soot will be expelled from the engine during this procedure and it should be done in a safe place away from combustible material and under supervision at all times.

Turbocharger Inspect

A visual inspection of the turbocharger can minimizeunscheduled downtime. A visual inspection of theturbocharger can also reduce the chance for potentialdamage to other engine parts. To inspect the Turbo-charger:

1. Remove the pipe from the turbocharger exhaust outlet and remove the air intake pipe to the turbo-charger. Visually inspect the piping for the pres-ence of oil. Clean the interior of the pipes in order to prevent dirt from entering during reassembly.

2. Check for the presence of oil. If oil is leaking from the back side of the compressor wheel, there is a possibility of a failed turbocharger oil seal. The presence of oil may be the result of extended engine operation at low idle. The presence of oil may also be the result of a restriction of the line for the intake air (clogged air fi lters), which causes the turbocharger to slobber.

Harrington Generators International

39HRD Events Diesel Generator 498-1069

Maintenance

3. Inspect the bore of the housing of the turbine outlet for corrosion.

4. Fasten the air intake pipe and the exhaust outlet pipe to the turbocharger housing.

Cooling System Coolant Extender (ELC) Add

The Perkins Extended Life Coolant (ELC) does notneed the frequent addition of Supplemental CoolantAdditives (SCA) that are associated with conventionalcoolants. The Extender only needs to be added once.Check the cooling system only when the engine isstopped and cool.

1. Loosen the cooling system fi ller cap slowly in order to relieve pressure. Remove the cooling system fi ller cap.

2. It may be necessary to drain enough coolant from the cooling system in order to add the Extender.

3. Add Extender according to the requirements for your engine’s cooling system capacity.

4. Clean the cooling system fi ller cap and inspect the gasket. If the gasket is damaged, discard the old fi ller cap and install a new fi ller cap. If the gasket is not damaged, use a suitable pressurising pump in order to pressure test the fi ller cap. The correct pressure is stamped on the face of the fi ller cap. If the fi ller cap does not retain the correct pressure, install a new fi ller cap.

Cooling System Coolant Extender (ELC) Change

Refer to changing the standard Cooling System Change. When refi lling use the Perkins Extended Life Coolant.

Transportation / Storage

Transportation and Storage

NOTICE Do not lay the generator on its side when moving, storing, or operat-ing it. Oil may leak and damage the engine or your property

If the generator has been used, allow it cool for at least 15 minutes before loading the generator on the transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust system can burn you and can ignite some material. To prevent fuel spillage when transporting, the generator should be secured upright in its normal operating position, with the engineControl Module switched OFF.

Take care not to drop or strike the generator when transporting. Do not place heavy objects on the generator.

Item DescriptionEngine: Turn the Engine Control Module “OFF”

Short Term typically up to 6 months:

Do not run the generator out of fuel. If the engine runs out of fuel the fuel system will become air locked and will have to be bled before the engine will restart. Leave a small quantity of fuel in the fuel tank. Drain any water from the water separator / fi lter. Run the engine for a few minutes and drain the warm oil and fi ll with new oil as for a normal service. Turn battery isolator off. Disconnect battery and grease terminals with petroleum jelly.

Long Term over 6 months:

For long term storage each engine manufacturer will have their own recommendations typically:

1. Replace engine oil with a special inhibiting oil.2. Flush through fuel system and leave full with a special inhibiting compound.3. Spray connectors in the loom and plug in sensors with Vaporol Inhibitor or similar.

Please contact HGI for further details.Alternator: No special requirements other than store in a dry well ventilated place.

If the generator has been stored for a considerable period of time e.g. several years the alternator insulation winding resistance should be checked as they can absorb moisture. The insulation resistance must be at least 2 MΏ (2 mega ohms). If it is less than this then the alternator windings can be dried out by placing the alternator in an oven at 60-70°C for a few hours with plenty of air movement. Generally if this procedure is required consider replacing the alternator.

Please contact HGI for details.Electrical : No special requirements other than store in a dry well ventilated place.

General: Store in dry, well ventilated and dust free place.

Whilst in storage it is recommended that the battery is trickle charged via the 3-pin socket (buccaneer) on the control panel.

If the generator is to be stored long term it would be benefi cial to start and run the generator under electrical load for half an hour every three months and then store as above ( but no need to change the oil).
