ADDITIONAL WARNINGS
At this point in the User's and Maintenance Manual it is useful to provide a list of general safety requirements
for the most common operating situations:
– respect the indications of the safety pictograms on the generator board;
– before starting the generator, make sure that no one is performing maintenance on the generator.
– maintenance must be entrusted only to authorized personnel who must first put the generator in
maintenance status (see Chap. 10 “Maintenance”).
– under no circumstances should the guards (sound-absorbing enclosure) be removed while the
generator is running;
– it is absolutely forbidden to anyone to use the generator for a purpose other than the one expressly
intended.
Any other use of the generator not provided for in this operation and Maintenance Manual is
considered "IMPROPER USE".
In this case, the manufacturer declines all responsibility in relation to any damage caused to property
and/or persons and considers that any warranty on the generator and the accessories supplied has
lapsed.
DESCRIPTION OF THE GENERATOR
The Marine diesel generator mod. Paguro 6000/9000/14000/18000/6500/8500 is a generator designed to
produce electricity on board boats. This generator has been designed and built to be installed on a boat, (able
to house the generator in terms of size and weight).
The Paguro generator consists essentially of:
- Soundproofing capsule made of reinforced fiberglass with composite stratification and covering in
high-density sound-absorbing material for the reduction of the sound emission due to the internal
combustion engine;
- Double anti-vibration system, internal with 4 soft supports and external with 4 semi-elastic supports;
- Endothermic engine, powered by diesel, with 2/3/4 cylinders (depending on the model) and cooled by
means of a heat exchanger, whose purpose is to transform the energy of the input fuel into mechanical
energy (rotation of the shaft);
- Synchronous alternator, brushless and condenser regulation, water-cooled by an exchanger, driven
by the shaft of the endothermic engine, equipped with a battery charger for a dedicated starting battery.
The alternator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy;
- Electrical box equipped with alternator thermal protection reset button and capacitors;
- Heat exchanger provided with tube nest;
- Fresh water endothermic engine cooling system with heat exchanger;
- Self-priming water pump;
- Remote control panel with LCD display, for managing the operation of the generator;
- Manual engine oil extraction pump;
- Sea water and gas exhaust terminal with overtemperature switch.
The generator is easy to manage in maintenance and cleaning operations, according to the latest accident
prevention regulations.
The generator is supplied with a spare parts kit (impeller and impeller seal).

Operation principle
The operation of the generator, for the generation of energy, develops through the following phases:
1. The fuel arrives at the endothermic engine where, by means of the combustion process, it is
transformed into mechanical energy;
2. Mechanical energy is converted by the alternator into electrical energy;
3. The self-priming pump draws sea water for successive cooling of the following components:
 Engine oil sump, via a contact exchanger;
 Alternator;
 Coolant contained in the engine cooling exchanger;
 Exhaust terminal.
4. Exhaust gases and cooling water are expelled outside through the terminal.
PROTECTIONS OF THE GENERATOR
The generator is protected by a multilayer fiberglass capsule, lined internally with sound-absorbing material,
consisting of:
- N.1 lower containment element of the generator equipped with anti-vibration system.
- N.2 upper elements with interlocking profiles, held together by silicone elastic bands.

EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE
This generator and its devices are made in standard version and can therefore not be installed and used in
premises where the concentration of dust may exceed acceptable limits and create potentially explosive
atmospheres.
DISPOSAL OF WASTE PRODUCTS
During normal operation, the generator generates waste or waste substances that must be collected, recycled
or disposed of in accordance with current laws in the country in which it is installed and used. These substances
are basically:
- engine oil;
- refrigerant liquid.
- exhausted lubrication oils;
- replaceable wearable parts.
To proceed with the disposal of these substances, please refer to the Regulations in the Country of residence
in accordance with the regulations in force and act accordingly.
DEMOLITION AND DISPOSAL OF THE GENERATOR
Once the generator has reached the end of its technical life, it must be put out of service so it will not be used
for the intended purpose and it is not possible to reuse parts and materials. The generator must be safely
disabled and demolished. VTE S.r.l. company assumes no liability for damages to things or people arising
from the reuse of individual parts of the generator for functions other than the original.
1. Before proceeding with demolition, it is necessary to empty the generator from all liquids;
2. Inform the responsible authorities for this task by written communication in accordance with the
regulations in force in the individual Country;
3. Dismount the generator depending on the various components, using tools and devices that can
normally be found in maintenance stores. Separate potentially hazardous components such as:
- Plastic materials, polymer-based materials, etc;
- Electrical components, cables, ecc…;
- Metal parts by type, such as aluminium, steel, etc…
4. After having received the authorization from the above authorities, proceed to the disposal of the
components in accordance with applicable laws and Regulations in this area.
Always keep in mind that the disposal of toxic and harmful waste is subject to special rules according to the
country of affiliation. Before doing such operations, you must be aware of these rules.
Disposal of harmful substances
To proceed with the disposal of these substances, please refer to the Regulations in the Country of residence
in accordance with the regulations in force and act accordingly.
Any irregularity committed by the Customer before, during or after the scrapping and disposal of the
