Safety
General information
This product may pose a risk of injury or damage in the following cases:
• Incorrect use
• Operation, maintenance and repair by unqualified personnel
• Modifications or conversions
• Noncompliance with the safety instructions and warning notices Safety.
Safety regulations for startup and operation, special Instructions for
applications with gaseous fuel
Gas System
Gas supply shut-off: The incomplete machine does not have its own gas supply shutoff
device. This must be designed by the plant designer according to site conditions.
The connection to the gas supply network is made by the plant designer in accordance
with regulations
The plant designer must use certified gas trains for the fuel supply to the product and
connection to the gas supply network. The connection conditions and dimensions must be
coordinated with the manufacturer.
In flow direction, gas trains have:
• A manual shutoff fitting
• A gas filter
• Two gas shutoff valves
• A pressure regulating device
The gas train must be fitted with an automatic leak check.
The gas shutoff valves are activated via two different paths from the control system,
whereby one gas shutoff valve respectively is activated via one of the paths.
Gas trains must be monitored to detect minimum pressure.
The plant designer must ensure that the gas train is positioned directly in front of the
engine, however a maximum of three meters before the interface of the engine. The
interface is the flange in front of the gas volume regulator of the product.
In the case of network supply pressures higher than 120 mbar, additional equipment is
required on the gas train.
The gas pressure regulator must be equipped with an approved safety shut-off valve and a
safety discharge valve to ensure safety in case of excessive outlet pressure at the pressure
regulator. Gas discharge must be routed to a safe area (to atmosphere).
If the gas supply is connected to a vessel or if gases containing oxygen are used, the gas
train must be equipped with a temperature-monitored flame arrester.

General Repair Instructions
Have maintenance or repair work carried out by qualified and authorized personnel only.
Allow the product to cool down to less than 50°C before starting maintenance work (risk
of explosion of oil vapors, fluids and lubricants, risk of burning).
Before starting work, relieve pressure in systems and compressed-air lines which are to
be opened. Use suitable containers of adequate capacity to catch fluids and lubricants.
When changing the oil or working on the fuel system, ensure that the service room is
adequately ventilated.
Never carry out maintenance and repair work with the product in operation, unless:
• Expressly permitted to do so following a written procedure.
• The product is running in the low load range and only for as long as absolutely
necessary.
Secure the product against unintentional starting, e.g. with start interlock.
Attach “Do not operate” sign in the operating area or to control equipment.
Disconnect the battery. Lock contactors.
Close the main valve on the compressed-air system and vent the compressed-air line
when pneumatic
Starters are fitted.
Disconnect the control equipment from the product.
The following applies to starters with copper-beryllium alloy pinions:
• Wear breathing protection of filter class P3 during maintenance work. Do not
blow out the interior of the flywheel housing or the starter with compressed air.
Clean the flywheel housing inside with a class dust extraction device.
• Observe the safety data sheet

Gas Engine generator
An engine-generator is the combination of an electrical generator and an engine (prime mover)
mounted together to form a single piece of equipment. This combination is also called an engine-
generator set or a gen-set. In many contexts, the engine is taken for granted and the combined
unit is simply called a generator.
Working Principle
An electricity generation, a generator is a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical
energy for use in an external circuit. The source of mechanical energy may vary widely from a
hand crank to an internal combustion engine. Generators provide nearly all of the power for
electric power grids.
There are two main engines:
QSK45G ENGINE
QSK60GENGINE

Caution
Do not idle for extended periods of time. Excessive idle time can cause poor engine
performance.
Cold weather
Ambient temperature
0 to -32 OC [32 to-25 OF]
Use 50-percent ethylene glycol antifreeze and 50-percent water foe the engine
coolant mixture. Refer to maintenance specifications (section V) lubricating oil
recommendations for the correct.
-32 to 54 OC [-25 to -65 OF]
Use 60-percent ethylene glycol antifreeze and 40-percent water foe the engine
coolant mixture. Refer to maintenance specifications (section V) lubricating oil
recommendations for the correct.
The following cold weather operating aids are required for cold weather operations.
Winter fronts and Shutters
It can be used on a vehicle or equipment to reduce air flow through the radiator core into the
engine compartment. This can reduce the time required to warm the engine and help maintain the
engine coolant temperature. The engine coolant temperature specifications are in the
maintenance specification (section V).
Engine Shutdown
Allow the engine to idle 3 to 5 minutes before shutting it off after a full load operation. This
allows adequate cool down of piston, cylinders, bearings and turbocharger components.
Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. If the engine does not shut down, refer to
troubleshooting symptom (section TS).

Electronic Components
There are two CM558 modules.
The CM558 sub system modules:
Solid state fully encapsulated and can connect with nine cylinders.
Non –serviceable
Module has two 50 pin Deutsch connection.
The CM558 sub system modules monitor for:
Engine speed/position
Throttle position sensor
Knock sensor
Intake manifold pressure sensor
Operating Instructions
The gas mass flow sensor mounted on the outside of the fuel control valve measures the amount
of fuel being fixed with the intake air. The sensor is a hot wire thermometer that measures the
amount of power required to keep an electrically heated wire at a constant temperature. The wire
requires more power to maintain a constant temperature as more fuel flows by the wire. The
sensor has a built in circuit board that controls the sensor.
The CM558 supplies the sensor with 14 VDC and a return. The sensor provides a signal between
0 and 5 VDC that proportional to the gas mass flow. It uses this input for fuel control.

The fuel outlet pressure sensor
The intake manifold temperature sensor
