SYSTEMS CONNECTION

FUEL SYSTEM

The diesel fuel system for the generator set must be designed to operate independently from the

vehicles main engine if both engines are to be operated at the same time. The best way to do this is to

have separate fuel tanks, but this is usually impractical because of space restrictions. In most

installations both engines operate from a common fuel tank with separate pick-up tubes for each

engine, not a Tee fitting arrangement. This prevents either or both engines from being starved for fuel.

The generator set fuel pick-up tube is generally shorter than the vehicles; therefore fuel may not be

available to the generator when fuel supply is low. This will prevent the generator from depleting the

fuel supply needed by the main engine.

NOTE: Using a simple Tee fitting to supply both engines from a common fuel line is not

recommended. This practice may possible cause a fuel starvation situation to either or both engines.

Also, if excessive pressure were to build up in the main supply line it could possible cause a failure of

the generators fuel lines or connectors and a hazardous fuel leak may occur.

Care must be taken when routing the fuel line from the main tank to the generator set. Keep the

fuel line as short as possible while maintaining adequate clearance from the exhaust system. Fuel lines

must be run along the frame side rails or coach under carriage. Never run fuel lines inside of the coach.

Securely fasten the fuel lines with hardware that is recommended for the type of fuel line used. The

fuel lines should enter the generator compartment at a point nearest to the generators fuel line

connection fittings. Allow for a minimum of 8inches of flexible fuel line to make the connection. Use

proper size fuel line to accommodate the fuel flow needed. Steel fuel line or high quality fuel hose is

recommended, either one should have a minimum of ¼” ID and strong enough to withstand road and

climatic conditions. A positive fuel shut-off valve should be located between the fuel tank and fuel

connection on the generator.

EXHAUST SYSTEM

Exhaust system components installed on a RV Genset must be approved and properly installed to

meet the codes and regulations required by Federal and State agencies. Exhaust Mufflers and Spark

Arrestors supplied by Power Technology meet the codes and standard requirements set forth by the

USDA Forest Service. Laws pertaining to application and maintenance of a Spark Arrestor may vary

depending on your location and State regulations. Federal laws apply on Federal lands. If a generator

is used in a forest, on brush or grass covered unimproved land it must be equipped with a Spark

Arrestor. It is the responsibility of the vehicle owner or operator to install and maintain the entire

exhaust system in good working condition.

CAUTION: Any person (s) who installs an unapproved Muffler, Spark Arrestor or other exhaust

system component, and/or modifies an exhaust system or component that may result in a hazardous

condition is liable for damages, injuries or warranty expense caused by such unapproved installation

and/or modification.
