Fig. 3-1 Example of a type plate
3.2.1 A device description and intended use
Your generators generates electrical energy for the "On-site operation" mode as
part of a network backup operation, through which you can supply a mobile distribution system with electricity. This enables mobile use of commercially available electrical devices with single-phase 230V AC / 50 Hz or three-phase 400V
AC / 50 Hz (depending on the equipment being used).
This operating mode means that your generators, which has been designed for
manual or automatic (remote start) operation, can be used with one or more electrical consumables. To protect against electric shock (current flow through your
body), the protective separation measure with equipotential bonding according
to DIN VDE 0100-551: 2017-02 is used. The protective conductor system of the
attached consumer equipment takes over the function of the potential equalisa-
10
Product identification
tion device. The power in the “On-site operation“ mode is taken through a spray
water protected Schuko socket with a nominal voltage of 230V / 50 Hz 1~ or
through a CEE 400V / 50 Hz 3~ socket, see Fig. 6-4
The generators must not be connected up directly to another energy distribution
network (e.g. public electricity supply) or to a power generation production system (e.g. other power generators).
Your generators of a DUPLEX generator driven by a combustion engine attached
to it. This unit is mounted in a stable tubular steel frame with vibration dampers
to provide elastic and low-vibration support.
An integrated voltage regulator ensures that the stability of the generated voltage
is within the nominal rotational speed range.
The generators is only to be used outdoors and within the indicated voltage, power and nominal rpm limits (see type plate).
The generators is not to be used in potentially explosive areas.
The generators is not to be used in areas where there is a risk of fire.
The generators must always be operated according to the instructions given in
the technical documentation.
Any improper use or any generators activities that are not described in these instructions is forbidden misuse that lies outside the manufacturer's legal liability
limits.
3.2.2 Foreseeable misuse
Apart from the description of appropriate use, the lawmaker also requires
concrete references to the results of “reasonably foreseeable misuse“. In
a case of incorrect use or inappropriate handling of the generator the manufacturer's EC Declaration of Conformity, and automatically thereby also
the operating licence, are nullified. For products with a manufacturer’s warranty the manufacturer will reject any claims made under warranty for damages which were caused by misuse and its direct as well as indirect
consequences.
As not authorised Misuse is particularly the case when:
• operation of the generator takes place without valid checks for
– electrical safety
– checking that the prescribed servicing and maintenance work has been
done
• operation of the generator takes place without the protective equipment installed by the manufacturer
• constructional or electrical modifications of the generator were undertaken
• use of the generator by inadequately instructed operating personnel
Furthermore at all costs avoid the following Misuses:
• Never refuel the generator’s own tank when the engine is running. The vibrations and strong exhaust streams during operation can lead to fuel spillage.
This leads to an increased risk of explosion and fire and therefore danger to
operating personnel, the environment and the device.
• Never refuel the generator’s own tank when it is hot. Overflowing fuel and
outflowing fuel vapours can ignite on hot parts of the device.
11
Product identification
• The generator is never to be connected up to other energy distribution systems (e.g. public power supply) or to other energy generation systems (e.g.
other generators, solar plant, etc.). To start with this is usually not permitted
by the energy supply company. In both cases this will inevitably lead to severe damage and possibly also severe injury.
• Never place the generator in explosion-prone environments. The individual
components of the generator are not designed EX-protected.
• Never operate the generator in rooms, narrow pits or vehicles. The combustion exhaust gases contain poisonous substances including the odourless
but deadly gas carbon monoxide (CO) which, when breathed in, can accumulate in cases of poor air circulation to reach deadly concentrations. Also a
lack of fresh air circulation leads to overheating and possible damage to the
generator right through to destruction.
• For the same reasons of risk, never divert exhaust gases for the purposes of
heating rooms or vehicles.
• Never clean the generator with the aid of a high pressure cleaner or a strong
jet of water.
• Never allow water to find its way inside the generator. Never pour water over
the generator and never clean it using a water hose or a high pressure cleaner.
• Never operate the generator in any area where it could be flooded by high
water or any other events. The Protection Class of the device (see Chapter
13 ) allows operation for spray water, however not in the case of floods.

4.2 General safety instructions
ENDRESS generators are designed to operate electrical equipment with
appropriate power output requirements. Other uses can lead to severe injuries to operating personnel as well as persons nearby. There is also increased risk of damaging the generator as well as further damage to
equipment.
DANGER!
Mortal danger due to an electric shock if live parts are touched.
► Never operate generators if it is in a damaged condition.
► Never operate the electrical consumers and connecting cable (power con-
suming equipment) in a damaged condition.
► Never feed directly into existing networks that are already connected to a
power source (e.g. power supplier, solar plant, etc.).
► Never operate the generators with wet hands.
The majority of injuries and damage to equipment can be avoided if all instructions given in this manual and all instructions attached to the device are followed.
The generator must not be modified in any way, also not temporarily. This can
lead to a mortal risk to operating and deployed personnel and damage to the generator as well as the consumers being used.
Operating company and Operating personnel may only use the generator according to regulations contained in the whole technical documentation (hereinafter referred to as appropriate use).
Every instance of inappropriate use as well as all activities on the generator
which are not described in these instructions are forbidden misuse outside the
legally defined limits of liability of the manufacturer. In return all claims for damages and claims made under warranty to ENDRESS-Elektrogerätebau GmbH
which are associated with misuse are null and void.
4.3 Residual risks
As a manufacturer of EU-compliant machines, ENDRESS make great efforts to create designs which already eliminate possible risk potentials at
the design stage. If this is not possible without significantly impairing the
functions of a device, we implement suitable protective measures protect
the user from injury.
If there are still some residual risks associated with working with the device, we clearly advise the user about these sources of danger, possible
consequences as well as measures to avoid such dangers.
The residual dangers were analyzed and Residual dangers identified during the
development and design of your generators by means of a danger analysis according to DIN EN 60204, DIN EN ISO 12100 and DIN EN ISO 8528-13.
References to general sources of danger can be found in chapters 5 and 5 .
From Chapter 6 one can find concrete warning notices placed before every action step which represents a residual risk.
The exact structure and contents of warning notices are defined in the
ISO 3864 series of standards and follow an established identification marking required to immediately be able to estimate the degree of the respective

risk,which can lead to death or severe injuries,when not avoided.
► The individual points provide instructions and
► notices as aids to avoid the danger
► or to reduce the risk to an acceptable level.
CAUTION!
CAUTION describes a danger which represents a low level of risk,
which
can lead to minor or medium level injuries
when not avoided.
► The individual points provide instructions and
► notices as aids to avoid the danger
► or to reduce the risk to an acceptable level.
