INSTALLATION
OUTDOOR INSTALLATION
Install the generator in a area that is free of debris, bystanders, and overhead obstructions. Make sure the generator is on secure level ground so that it cannot slide or shift around. Also install the generator in a manner so that the exhaust will not be discharged in the direction of nearby homes.
The installation site must be relatively free from moisture and dust. All electrical equipment should be protected from excessive moisture. Failure to do so will result in deterioration of the insulation and will result in short circuits and grounding.
Foreign materials such as dust, sand, lint and abrasive materials have a tendency to cause excessive wear to engine and alternator parts.
CAUTION
Pay close attention to ventilation when operating the generator inside tunnels and caves. The engine exhaust contains noxious elements. Engine exhaust must be routed to a ventilated area.
INDOOR INSTALLATION
GENERATOR GROUNDING
To guard against electrical shock and possible damage to the equipment, it is important to provide a good EARTH ground.
Article 250 (Grounding) of the National Electrical Code (NEC) provides guidelines for proper grounding and specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
NEC articles 250-64(b) and 250-66 set the following grounding requirements:
1. Use one of the following wire types to connect the generator to earth ground.
a. Copper — 8 AWG (5.3 mm2)
b. Aluminum — 6 AWG (8.4 mm2)
2. When grounding the generator (Figure 2) connect the ground cable between the lock washer and the nut on the generator and tighten the nut fully. Connect the other end of the ground cable to earth ground.
3. NEC article 250-52(c) specifies that the earth ground rod should be buried a minimum of 8 ft. into the ground.
Exhaust gases from diesel engines are extremely poisonous. Whenever an engine is installed indoors the exhaust fumes must be vented to the outside. The engine should be installed at least two feet from any outside wall. Using an exhaust pipe which is too long or too small can cause excessive back pressure which will cause the engine to heat excessively and possibly burn the valves.
MOUNTING
The generator must be mounted on a solid foundation (such as concrete) and set firmly on the foundation to isolate vibration of the generator when it is running. The generator must sit at least 6 inches above the floor or grade level (in accordance to NFPA 110, Chapter 5-4.1).
NOTICE
When connecting the generator to any building electrical system, ALWAYS consult a licensed electrician.

GENERAL INFORMATION
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
This generator is a brushless, self-excited, externally voltage regulated, synchronous AC generator. The generator is made up of six major components: main stator (armature), main rotor (field), exciter stator (field), exciter rotor (armature), rectifier assembly, and voltage regulator.
The generator's exciter consists of a stationary field and a rotating armature. The stationary field (exciter stator) is designed to be the primary source of the generator's residual magnetism. This residual magnetism allows the exciter rotor (armature) to produce AC voltage even when the exciter stator (field) is not powered. This AC voltage is rectified to DC by the rotating rectifier assembly and fed directly to the main rotor (field). As the generator shaft continues to rotate, the main rotor (field) induces a voltage into the generator's main stator (armature). At rated speed, the main stator's voltage produced by the residual magnetism of the exciter allows the automatic voltage regulator to function.
The regulator provides voltage to the exciter resulting in a build-up of generator terminal voltage. This system of using residual magnetism eliminates the need for a special field flashing circuit in the regulator. After the generator has established the initial residual voltage, the regulator provides a controlled DC field voltage to the exciter stator resulting in a controlled generator terminal voltage.
VOLTAGE REGULATION
In the standard configuration (shunt excited), the automatic voltage regulator receives both its input power and voltage sensing from the generator's output terminals. The regulator automatically monitors the generator's output voltage against an internal reference set point and provides the necessary DC output voltage to the exciter field required to maintain constant generator terminal voltage. The generator's terminal voltage is changed by adjusting the regulator's reference set point.
ENGINE
This standby generator incorporates a Perkins 404D-22 Tier 4 diesel engine. This engine is designed to meet every performance requirement for the generator. Refer to Table 2 for engine specifications.
In keeping with Multiquip’s policy of constantly improving its products, the specifications quoted herein are subject to change without prior notice.
ELECTRONIC GOVERNOR SYSTEM
The electronic governor system controls the RPMs of the engine. When the engine demand increases or decreases, the governor system regulates the frequency variation to ± 0.25%.

MAINTENANCE
NOTICE
The air filter should be changed more frequently in dusty operating conditions.
If the engine is operating in very dusty or dry grass conditions, a clogged air cleaner will result. This can lead to a loss of power, excessive carbon buildup in the combustion chamber and high fuel consumption. Change air cleaner more frequently if these conditions exist.
FUEL ADDITION
Add diesel fuel (the grade may vary according to season and locations).
Removing Water from the Fuel Tank
After prolonged use, water and other impurities accumulate in the bottom of the tank. Occasionally inspect the fuel tank for water contamination and drain the contents if necessary.
During cold weather, the more empty volume inside the tank, the easier it is for water to condense. This can be reduced by keeping the tank full with diesel fuel.
Cleaning Inside the Fuel Tank
If necessary, drain the fuel inside the fuel tank completely. Using a spray washer (Figure 24) wash out any deposits or debris that have accumulated inside the fuel tank.
FUEL TANK INSPECTION
In addition to cleaning the fuel tank, the following components should be inspected for wear:
Rubber Suspension — look for signs of wear or
deformity due to contact with oil. Replace the rubber suspension if necessary.
Fuel Hoses — inspect nylon and rubber hoses for signs
of wear, deterioration, and hardening.
Fuel Tank Lining — inspect the fuel tank lining for signs
of excessive amounts of oil and other foreign matter.
Replacing Fuel Filter
 Replace the fuel filter cartridge with a new one every
500 hours.
 Loosen the drain plug at the lower top of the fuel filter.
Drain the fuel in the fuel body together with the mixed water. DO NOT spill the fuel during disassembly.
 Vent any air.
AIR REMOVAL
If air enters the fuel injection system of a diesel engine, starting becomes impossible. After running out of fuel, or after disassembling the fuel system, bleed the system. Refer to the Perkins engine manual for details.
CHECK OIL LEVEL
Check the crankcase oil level prior to each use, or when the fuel tank is filled. Insufficient oil may cause severe damage to the engine. The oil level must be between the two notches on the dipstick as shown in Figure 7.
Replacing Oil Filter
1. Remove the old oil filter.
2. Apply a film of oil to the gasket on the new oil filter.
3. Install the new oil filter.
4. After the oil filter has been replaced, the engine oil will drop slightly. Run the engine for a while and check for leaks before adding more oil if needed. Clean excessive

used to adjust the generator output voltage. Clockwise adjustment increases the generator output voltage.
2. Stability Adjust — System stability is the ability of the
generator to respond to load transients. Decreasing the stability makes the generator less sluggish and faster to respond to load transients.
If the stability of the regulator is decreased too much,
the generator will tend to hunt under steady state conditions. Increasing stability increases the response time of the generator while decreasing stability decreases response time.
The screwdriver adjustable potentiometer is used
to adjust the system stability. Clockwise adjustment increases stability.
3. Roll-Off Frequency Selection The roll-off point is
the frequency where the generator voltage starts to decrease. This reduces the kilowatt load to the engine, which allows the engine to recover in speed under any load transient condition.
The voltage regulator has the roll-off point preset to
58 Hz in the 60 Hz mode. To change the roll off point, perform the following:
a. Adjust the engine to the desired rated speed
(60 Hz).
b. Set the voltage to the desired setting at rated
speed.
c. Adjust the engine speed to the desired roll-off point.
d. Turn the potentiometer counterclockwise until the
voltage returns to rated.
e. Readjust the engine speed to rated speed.
Adjustment Procedure
F1 and the negative lead to F2 or use an appropriate AC voltmeter on the generator output leads.
6. Start and run the generator at no load and rated speed. The generator voltage should build up to a minimum level. If it does not build up, refer to the generator manual for field flashing information.
7. Slowly adjust the Voltage Adjust potentiometer until the generator voltage reaches the nominal value. Also adjust the remote Voltage adjust to set the generator voltage to the exact value desired.
8. Turn the Stability Adjust potentiometer counterclockwise until instability is shown on the voltmeter. With the system operating in an unstable condition, slowly adjust the Stability Adjust potentiometer clockwise until generator stability is reached.
9. Interrupt the regulator power for a short period of time (1 to 2 seconds).
10. If the generator remains stable, no further adjustment is necessary.
11. If generator does not remain stable, increase the stability slightly and interrupt the regular power again.
12. Repeat step 11 until system stability is reached and maintained.
GENERATOR STORAGE
For long term storage of the generator the following is recommended:
1. Drain the fuel tank completely. Treat with a fuel stabilizer if necessary.
2. Completely drain the oil from the crankcase and refill, if necessary, with fresh oil.
3. Clean the entire generator, inside and outside.

TROUBLESHOOTING (CONTROLLER)
CAUTION
Before opening the enclosure to perform troubleshooting or any service task, isolate the controller from any possible source of power. Failure to do so may result in serious personal injury or death due to electrical shock.
Troubleshooting (MEC20 Controller)
Symptom Possible Problem Solution
Does not power up even with correct DC power applied
LCD is not operational
Controller cannot be "reset"
No "RUN" output signal
Overspeed shutdown occurs at normal speed
Voltage or current metering is reading incorrectly
Wiring errors or short circuit?
Microprocessor defective?
Insufficient DC supply voltage? Check voltage at input terminals B+ and B- (10-30 VDC).
Bad LCD resolution?
Controller not in OFF mode?
Engine is running?
Shutdown circuits reset?
No engine speed signal?
RUN output LED off?
Controller not correctly programmed?
Controller not correctly programmed?
Battery not properly grounded?
Analog input not properly calibrated?
Incorrect wiring?
Check wiring and repair. NOTE: The MEC 20 electronic fuse triggers when there is an overload condition and does not reset until the supply voltage is removed and overload condition is corrected.
Check that the "watchdog" LED on the rear of the PCB is flashing red meaning that the microprocessor is working. If not, repair or replace microprocessor.
Adjust LCD contrast potentiometer (R115) on the rear of PCB for good pixel resolution for the operating temperature of the unit.
Check that the controller is set to the OFF mode before resetting.
Check that the engine has come to a complete stop before resetting.
Check that all shutdown circuits are reset (red shutdown LED must be off).
Engine speed signal must be detected (speed signal green LED on) during cranking if the "run-output fail safe" feature is enabled. Verify correct magnetic pick-up signal at cranking (2.0 VAC min.)
Check that the RUN output LED (on the rear of the PCB) is on. If yes, verify relay contact operation on terminals #18 and #19.
Verify that the controller has been programmed with the correct values for the number of flywheel teeth, nominal RPM, and overspeed setpoint percentage.
Verify that the controller has been programmed with the correct values for voltage sensing PT ratio and/or current sensing CT ratio.
Verify that the battery supply DC negative conductor is properly grounded to the engine block (i.e. to a common ground point.)
Verify that the controller's analog input has been properly calibrated.
Verify that the voltage sensing wiring connection to the controller matches power distribution type (Note: standard direct voltage connection requires that the generator's neutral is solidly grounded).
PAGE 38 —MQP20P STANDBY GENERATOR • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #1 (11/28/11)
Symptom Possible Problem Solution
Engine temperature or oil pressure display is reading incorrectly
Engine temperature or oil displays "9999"
Engine alarms on high engine temperature or low oil pressure when engine is operating within normal limits
Keys on faceplate do not operate.
