Personne! 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 howmuchthemachine
weighs before choosing the lifting tool.
During this operation, do not allow
anyone to stand under the load.
+ Handling
The generously-sized lifting eyes are for
handling the alternator only. They must not
be used to lift the genset. The choice of
liftinghooksorhandlesshouldbedetermined
by the shape of the lifting eyes. 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 altemator and the engine by
performing:
> undertaking @ torsional analysis of the
transmission (alternators data are available
on request),
- checking the dimensions of the flywheel
and its housing, the flange, coupling discos
and offset.
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 flywheel 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-flexible 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
42 key.
+ Location
The room where the altemator is placed
must be ventilated to ensure that the
ambient temperature cannot exceed the
data on the nameplate.
3.2 - Checks prior to first use
«Electrical checks
A
Under no circumstances should an
alternator, new or otherwise, be operated

Assembly B: Connect a “Variac’ variable
power supply and a diode bridge on both
exciter field wires (5+) and (6-).
Both these systems should have
characteristics which are compatible with
the field excitation power of the machine
(see the nameplate).
3) Run the unit atits rated speed.
4) Gradually increase the exciter field
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.

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. Itis 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
system should be considered as a
hazardous waste and has to be handled
according to local legislation.
