Frequency is the true measure of generator engine performance and does not need to factor in increased ambient temperatures,elevation changes or generator fuel type.The modules monitor the frequency(Hz)of the power being produced by Generac's standby generators.If frequency falls below a certain threshold, the module will automatically follow a power management algorithm to reduce the chance of a generator overload condition. The modules can be set to a load priority between 1-8,or be set in a lock-out only mode for loads that just simply do not need to run in an outage.This reduces the minimum size of the generator for a more cost-effective solution.

It is important to discuss these factors with the installer when selecting a site for generator installation: Asphyxiation. Running engines produce • carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless, Carbon monoxide poisonous gas. Carbon monoxide, if not • Fire prevention avoided, will result in death or serious injury. • Fresh air for ventilation and cooling (000103) • Water ingress prevention IMPORTANT NOTE: Move to fresh air immediately and seek medical attention if you feel sick, dizzy, or • Proximity to utilities weak while the generator is running or after it stops. • Suitable mounting surface Generator exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO)—a The following pages describe each of these factors in poisonous, potentially lethal gas.that cannot be seen or detail. smelled.

However, instructions and recommendations pre- sented in this section apply to all structures regardless of Carbon Monoxide Detectors type. See Figure 3-1. CO detectors- (K) must be used to monitor for CO and to warn individuals about the presence of CO. CO detectors should be installed and tested in accordance with the CO detector manufacturer's instructions and warnings. Contact local building inspection department for any applicable requirements concerning CO detectors. i IMPORTANT NOTE: Common smoke alarms do NOT detect CO gas. Do not rely on smoke alarms to protect residents or animals from CO. The only way to detect CO is to have functioning CO alarms.

The criteria was to determine the worst case fire scenario within the generator and to determine the ignitability of items outside the engine enclosure at various distances. The enclosure is constructed of non-combustible I materials, and the results and conclusions from the independent testing lab indicated that any fire within the generator enclosure would not pose any ignition risk to nearby combustibles or structures, with or without fire I service personnel response. ? i i Site Selection and Preparation Fresh Air for l enlllilatloUli and C OGUI g Suitable Mounting Suirlac e Install unit where air inlet and outlet openings will not See Figure 3-4.
