3 - INSTALLATION
Personnel undertaking the various
operations indicated in this section must
wear personal protective equipment
appropriate for mechanical and electrical
hazards.
3.1 - Assembly
All mechanical handling operations
must be undertaken using suitable
equipment and the machine must be
horizontal. Check how much the machine
weighs (see 4.8) before choosing the
lifting tool.
During this operation, do not allow
anyone to stand under the load.
• Handling
The generously-sized lifting rings are for
handling the alternator alone. They must not
be used to lift the genset. The choice of
liftinghooksorhandlesshouldbedetermined
by the shape of these rings. Choose a lifting
system which respects the integrity and the
environment of the machine.
During this operation, do not allow
anyone to stand under the load.
• Single-bearing coupling
Before coupling, check the compatibility
between the alternator and the engine by
performing:
- undertaking a torsional analysis of the
transmission (alternators data are available
on request),
- checking the dimensions of the ywheel
and its housing, the ange, coupling discs
and offset.
WARNING
When coupling the alternator to the
prime mover, do not use the fan to turn
the alternator or rotor.
The holes of the coupling discs should
be aligned with the ywheel holes by
cranking the engine.
Make sure the machine is securely
bedded in position during coupling.
Check that there is lateral play on the
crankshaft.
• Double-bearing coupling
- Semi-exible coupling
Careful alignment of the machines is
recommended, checking that the lack of
concentricity and parallelism of both parts
of the coupling do not exceed 0.1 mm.
This alternator has been balanced with a
1/2 key.
• Location
The room where the alternator is placed
must be ventilated to ensure that the
ambient temperature cannot exceed the
data on the nameplate.
3.2 - Checks prior to rst use
• Electrical checks
Under no circumstances should an
alternator, new or otherwise, be operated
if the insulation is less than 1 megohm
for the stator and 100,000 ohms for the
other windings.

There are 2 possible methods for restoring
the above minimum values.
a) Dry out the machine for 24 hours in a
drying oven at a temperature of 110 °C
(without the regulator).
b) Blow hot air into the air intake, having
made sure that the machine is rotating with
the exciter eld disconnected.
Note : Prolonged standstill
In order to avoid these problems, we
recommend the use of space heaters, as
well as turning over the machine from time
to time. Space heaters are only really
effective if they are working continuously
while the machine is stopped.
Ensure that the alternator has the degree
of protection matching the dened
environmental conditions.
WARNING
• Mechanical checks
Before starting the machine for the rst time,
check that:
- all xing screws are tight,
- the length of screw and the tightening
torque are correct,
- the cooling air is drawn in freely,
- the protective grilles and housing are cor-
rectly in place,
- the standard direction of rotation is clock-
wise as seen from the shaft end (phase
rotation in order 1 - 2 - 3).
For anti-clockwise rotation, swap 2 and 3.
- the winding connection corresponds to the
site operating voltage (see section 3.3).
3.3 - Terminal connection diagrams
To modify the connection, change the
position of the stator cables on the terminals.
The winding code is specied on the
nameplate.
Any intervention on the alternator
terminals during reconnection or checks
should be performed with the machine
stopped.
In no case should the internal
connections in the terminal box be
subjected to stresses due to cables
connected by the user.

• Connection checks
Electrical installations must comply with
the current legislation in force in the
country of use.
Check that:
- The residual circuit-breaker conforms to
legislation on protection of personnel, in
force in the country of use, and has been
correctly installed on the alternator power
output as close as possible to the alternator.
(In this case, disconnect the wire of the
interference suppression module linking the
neutral).
- Any protection devices in place have not
been tripped.
- If there is an external AVR, the connections
between the alternator and the cabinet are
made in accordance with the connection
diagram.
- There is no short-circuit phase-phase or
phase-neutral between the alternator output
terminals and the generator set control
cabinet (part of the circuit not protected by
circuitbreakers or relays in the cabinet).
- The machine should be connected with the
busbar separating the terminals as shown in
the terminal connection diagram.
- The alternator earth terminal inside the
terminal box is connected to the electrical
earth circuit
- The earth terminal is connected to the
frame.
The connections inside the terminal box
must never be subjected to stress due to
cables connected by the user.
3.4 - Commissioning
The machine can only be started up and
used if the installation is in accordance
with the regulations and instructions
dened in this manual.
The machine is tested and set up at the
factory. When rst used with no load, make
sure that the drive speed is correct and
stable (see the nameplate). With the
regreasable bearing option, we recommend
greasing the bearings at the time of
commissioning (see section 4.3).
On application of the load, the machine
should achieve its rated speed and voltage;
however, in the event of abnormal operation,
the machine setting can be altered (follow
the adjustment procedure in section 3.5). If
the machine still operates incorrectly, the
cause of the malfunction must be located
(see section 4.5).
3.5 - Setting up
The various adjustments during tests
must be made by a qualied engineer.
Ensure that the drive speed specied on
the nameplate is reached before
commencing adjustment.
After operational testing, replace all
access panels or covers.
TheAVR isusedto make any adjustments
to the machine.

4.1 - Safety measures
Servicing or troubleshooting must be
carried out strictly in accordance with
instructions so as to avoid the risk of
accidents and to maintain the machine in
its original state.
All such operations performed on the
alternator should be undertaken by
personnel trained in the commissioning,
servicing and maintenance of electrical
and mechanical components, who must
wear personal protective equipment
appropriate for mechanical and electrical
hazards.
Before any intervention on the machine,
ensure that it cannot be started by a manual
or automatic system and that you have
understood the operating principles of the
system.
Warning : During and after running, the
alternator will reach temperatures hot
enough to cause injury, such as burns.
4.2 - Routine maintenance
• Checks after start-up
After approximately 20 hours of operation,
check that all xing screws on the machine
are still tight, plus the general state of the
machine and the various electrical
connections in the installation.
• Electrical servicing
Commercially-available volatile degreasing
agents can be used.
Do not use: trichlorethylene, perchlo-
rethylene, trichloroethane or any alkaline
products.
These operations must be performed at a
cleaning station, equipped with a
vacuum system that collects and ushes
out the products used.
The insulating components and the
impregnation system are not at risk of
damage from solvents. Avoid letting the
cleaning product run into the slots.
Apply the product with a brush, sponging
frequently to avoid accumulation in the
housing. Dry the winding with a dry cloth. Let
any traces evaporate before reassembling
the machine.
• Mechanical servicing
Cleaning the machine using water or a
highpressure washer is strictly prohi-
bited. Any problems arising from such
treatment are not covered by our
warranty.
Degreasing: Use a brush and detergent
(suitable for paintwork).
Dusting: Use an air gun.
If the machine is tted with air inlet and outlet
lters, the maintenance personnel should
clean them routinely at regular intervals. In
the case of dry dust, the lter can be cleaned
using compressed air and/or replaced if it is
clogged.
After cleaning the alternator, it is essential to
check the winding insulation (see sections
3.2 and 4.5).

• Checking the winding
You can check the winding insulation by
performing a high voltage test. In this case,
you must disconnect all AVR wires.
WARNING
Damage caused to the AVR in such
conditions is not covered by our
warranty.
• Checking the windings and rotating
diodes using separate excitation
During this procedure, make sure that
the alternator is disconnected from any
external load and inspect the terminal
box to check that the connections are
fully tightened.
1) Stop the unit, disconnect and isolate the
AVR wires.
2) There are two ways of creating an
assembly with separate excitation.
Assembly A: Connect a 12 V battery in
series with a rheostat of approximately
50 ohms - 300 W and a diode on both exciter
eld wires (5+) and (6-).

SSEMBLY A
Field
Assembly B: Connect a “Variac” variable
power supply and a diode bridge on both
exciter eld wires (5+) and (6-).
Both these systems should have
characteristics which are compatible with
the eld excitation power of the machine
(see the nameplate).
3) Run the unit at its rated speed.
4) Gradually increase the exciter eld
current by adjusting the rheostat or the
variac and measure the output voltages on
L1 - L2 - L3, checking the excitation voltage
and current at no load (see the machine
nameplate or ask for the factory test report).
When the output voltage is at its rated value
and balanced within 1% for the rated
excitation level, the machine is in good
working order. The fault therefore comes
from the AVR or its associated wiring (ie.
sensing, auxiliary windings).

Disposal and recycling instructions
We are committed to limit the environmental
impact of our activity. We continuously
survey our production processes, material
sourcing and products design to improve
recyclability and diminish our footprint.
These instructions are for information
purposes only. It is the user responsibility to
comply with local legislation regarding
product disposal and recycling.
Recyclable materials
Our alternators are mainly built out of iron,
steel and copper materials, which can be
reclaimed for recycling purposes.
These materials can be reclaimed through a
combination of manual dismantling,
mechanical separation and melting
processes. Our technical support depar-
tment can provide detailed directions on
products dismounting upon request.
Waste & hazardous materials
The following components and materials
need a special treatment and need to be
separated from the alternator before the
recycling process:
- electronic materials found in the terminal
box, including the Automatic Voltage
Regulator (198), Current Transformers
(176), interference suppression module
(199) and other semi-conductors.
- diode Bridge (343) and Surge suppressor
(347), found on the alternator rotor.
- major plastic components, such as the
terminal box structure on some products.
These components are usually marked with
plastic type information.
All materials listed above need special
treatment to separate waste from
reclaimable material and should be handed
to specialized disposal companies.
The oil and grease from the lubrication
systemshouldbeconsideredasahazardous
waste and has to be handled according to
local legislation.
