General Information
GENERATOR INFORMATION (DM7900)
-------------------------------------------------------------
1. Motor Starting
Motor starting curves are obtained in accordance with IEC60034, and
are displayed at 0.6 power factor.
2. Voltage Dip
Prediction of the generator synchronous voltage dip can be made by
consulting the plot for the voltage dip value that corresponds to the
desired motor starting kVA value.
3. Definitions
A) Generator Keys
Frame: abbreviation of generator frame size
Freq: frequency in hertz.
PP/SB: prime/standby duty respectively
Volts: line - line terminal voltage
kW: rating in electrical kilo watts
Model: engine sales model
C) Centre of Gravity
The specified centre of gravity is for the generator only. For single
bearing, and two bearing close coupled generators, the center of
gravity is measured from the generator/engine flywheel-housing
interface and from the centreline of the rotor Shaft.
