Risk Of Fire; Risk Of Burns; Important; Risk Of Electrocution - SDMO PRO 2000 Manual De Utilización

2.4 Risks relating to exhaust gases
DANGER
For safety reasons and for correct operation of the generating set, correct ventilation is essential (risk of intoxication, engine
overheating and accidents involving, or damage to, the surrounding equipment and property). If it is necessary to operate it inside a
building, the exhaust gases must be evacuated outside and adequate ventilation must be provided so that any people or animals
present are not affected.
2.5

Risk of fire

DANGER
2.6

Risk of burns

Never touch the engine or the silencer while the generating set is in operation, or when it has just stopped. Wait
for the engine to cool before carrying out any work (at least 30 minutes).

IMPORTANT

Hot oil burns; avoid contact with the skin. Before carrying out any operation, check that the system is no longer pressurised. Never
start or run the engine if the oil filler cap is off (oil may splash out).
2.7

Risk of electrocution

DANGER
2.7.1 Temporary or semi-temporary installation (work site, show, fairground, etc.)
A - If the generating set is not equipped with an integrated differential protection device at delivery (standard version with insulated
neutral on the generating set's earth terminal):
- Use a differential device calibrated to 30mA at the output of each of the generating set's socket (place each device at least 1m
from the generating set, protecting it from weather conditions).
- If one or more mobile or portable devices are used occasionally, the generating set does not need to be earthed.
B - If the generating set is equipped with an integrated differential protection device at delivery (standard version with alternating
neutral connected to the generating set's earth terminal - for use with TT or TN systems):
- To earth the generating set: fit a 10 mm2 copper wire to the generating set's earth terminal and to a galvanised steel earthing
rod set 1 metre into the ground.
2.7.2 Fixed installation or mains failure
When supplying a fixed installation (e.g. as backup for mains outages), the generating set must be connected by a qualified
electrician in accordance with the regulations applicable at the installation site. The generating sets are not designed to be
connected directly to an installation (risk of electrocution or damage to equipment).
A - If the generating set is not equipped with an integrated differential protection device at delivery (standard version with insulated
neutral on the generating set's earth terminal):
- Use a source inverter.
- The generating set does not need to be earthed.
B - If the generating set is equipped with an integrated differential protection device at delivery (standard version with alternating
neutral connected to the generating set's earth terminal - for use with TT or TN systems):
- Use a source inverter.
- To earth the generating set: fit a 10 mm2 copper wire to the generating set's earth terminal and to a galvanised steel
earthing rod set 1 metre into the ground.
RISK OF POISONING
The carbon monoxide present in the exhaust gas may lead to death by inhalation if the
concentration levels in the atmosphere are too high.
Always use the generating set in a well ventilated area where the gases cannot
accumulate.
RISK OF FIRE
Never operate the generating set in areas containing flammable products (risk of sparks).
Keep all inflammable or explosive materials (petrol, oil, fabric, etc.) out of the way. when
the generating set is operating. Never cover the generating set with any type of material
while it is in operation or just after it has been switched off: always wait until the engine
cools down (at least 30 minutes).
RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
Generating sets supply electrical current while operating; comply with the applicable
legislation as well as the installation and usage recommendations given in this manual. If you
are in any doubt regarding installation, please contact your nearest agent.
Do not connect the generating set directly to other power source (e.g. mains); install a
changeover switch.
Never touch stripped cables or disconnected connectors. Never handle a generating set with
wet hands or feet. Never expose the equipment to liquid splashes or rainfall, and do not place
it on wet ground.
