After transporting the Genverter check for damage
before installation.
Long term storage can have detrimental effects on
engine and alternator. The engine should be put through an engine preservation procedure. (Refer to the maintenance chapter).
The alternator windings tend to condense. To
minimize condensation, store the Genverter in a dry and warm storage area.
Follow the battery manufacturer’s instructions when
storing the battery.
2.3 Features
2.3.1 General
The WhisperPower Genverter combines a small oil cooled diesel engine, a Permanent Magnet alternator and an Inverter, making variable speed possible. Variable speed means that the engine will operate in a specific rpm window without affecting the 50Hz/60Hz output frequency of the inverter.
The benefit is that the inverter is supplying a stable 230V and 50Hz or 60Hz output while the engine is running as efficiently as possible. This result in smooth running, reduced vibration, excellent combustion and substantial fuel savings.
The W-GV4 can be installed with an optional variable speed control. A stepper motor is installed on the speed throttle of the engine. The speed is regulated by a signal from the WP­PMG.
When little power is needed the engine runs at low (2500) rpm, speeding up to 3600 rpm when a high output is required. Because of the variable speed the unit operates much more economically (less fuel consumption). The life time is much longer than for generators running constantly at high speed and the noise level is much lower while running at low speed.
2.3.2 Construction
The Genverter incorporates a diesel engine which has a permanent magnet alternator in the flywheel. The engine is mounted on a steel base frame and mounted securely on a double set of anti-vibration mounting pads in a sound attenuated canopy. The output of the power from the alternator will be from zero up to 3 phase 250V-400Hz and 400V-500Hz, depending on the engine speed. The separate Power Module Genverter WP-PMG will invert this output to 230V/50Hz.
2.3.3 Engine Control Unit
The engine control unit incorporated in the Power Module Genverter is based on microprocessor technology. For detailed
information of the engine control unit refer to the user’s
manual of the WP-PMG.
If DC output is required, the Genverter is installed in conjunction with a DC PowerCube and engine control is provided by an external digital diesel control box (DDC). This takes care of engine operation monitoring and control (refer to Digital Diesel Control user’s manual for DDC specifications and possibilities).
The remote control panel including cable comes as standard with the Genverter.
2.3.4 Documentation
Included in the delivery are:
This user’s manual (number: 40200841). An installation manual (number: 40200845).
Where a DDC engine control unit is installed:
A DDC operating manual (no. 40200801). A DDC quick reference guide (no. 40200142).
The user’s manual contains a list of important maintenance and
spare parts as well as a chapter on maintenance and problem solving. Manuals in other languages are available on request.

3 TECHNICAL INFORMATION
3.1 Parts and relevant functions
The W-GV4 Scalino Genverter is a very advanced high tech variable speed power supply system. It combines new technologies from various fields such as engine technology, Permanent Magnet alternator technology and inverter technology.
3.1.1 Engine
The engine used in the Genverter is developed by WhisperPower and manufactured exclusively for WhisperPower. The concept is unique as the engine is fully cooled by oil. The same oil that is used for lubrication is also used for cooling. However the lubrication circuit is separate from the cooling circuit that has its own pump.
As the cylinder and cylinder head are surrounded by oil the noise of the engine itself is extremely low. The oil cooling makes it possible to apply the engine in an almost fully enclosed canopy, what makes the Genverter even more silent. The oil is cooled by a relatively small heat exchanger.
One could use the hot oil for generating heat (CHP Combined Heat Power generation). For this application additional information can be provided by WhisperPower.
Further details can be found in 3.2.
3.1.2 AC Permanent Magnet Alternator
The Three Phase Permanent Magnet Alternator is incorporated in the flywheel and has a very high efficiency of 94% or higher because of the very high tech super magnets that are used. The output of the power from the alternator will be between 250V­300Hz and 400V-500Hz, depending on the engine speed. As the efficiency is very high, little cooling is needed. The alternator includes a fan that circulates air to cool the windings. Further technical data on the design of the alternator can be found in drawings and diagrams in this manual.
3.1.3 Engine Control Unit and DDC
Depending on the Scalino system, the engine control is either incorporated in the WP-PMG or it is part of an optional DDC control box.
3.1.3.1 WP-PMG Power Module Genverter
Through the WP-PMG Power Module Genverter, the user can control and operate the GV4 Scalino.
Figure 1: WP-PMG control panel
By pushing the START button on the PMG control panel (refer to Figure 1) for two seconds, the control system is activated and will start the engine automatically. Pushing the STOP button (again hold two seconds) will stop the engine and the electrical system will be deactivated.
The PMG control panel also displays information such as output voltage, AC load and engine diagnostics.
For remote control the WP-PMG Power Module Genverter is supplied with a remote panel, which combines the start and stop buttons into a single button. Its operation is basically the same, though.
Figure 2: Remote control panel for WP-PMG
In addition, the WP-PMG incorporates an extended status interface input/output module featuring enable/disable, start/stop, fire shutdown and WhisperConnect CANbus for advanced diagnostics. These features are explained in the WP­PMG owner’s manual.

3.1.3.2 Optional Digital Diesel Control System
The optional Digital Diesel Control (DDC) is a very advanced functionality taking care of engine monitoring and control.
DDC provides options for the Scalino user to realize advanced settings and functionality. DDC settings can be changed by means of the DDC remote control panel, allowing the W-GV4 Scalino to operate in various modes.

3.1.4 Power Module Genverter
As far as PMG operation and functionality is concerned, the
reader is referred to the PMG User’s Manual.
3.1.5 Battery charger
The WP-Scalino system includes a battery charger generating 7A 13.7VDC-14,2VDC to charge the starter battery.
3.1.6 Load indicators
Refer to Figures 1- 4. Both the PMG local panel and the remote control indicate the AC load. Also the optional external DDC control box – if installed – displays the load.
3.1.7 Fuel
SPECIFICATIONS The engine must only be used with diesel fuel oil which conforms to the standards for use in modern diesel engines. Fuel free from water and contaminants is of the utmost importance. Detailed fuel specifications are listed in section
3.2.2.
BIO-DIESEL The use of diesel fuels to a maximum blend of 5% (by volume) of Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) known on the market as 5B diesels is allowed as far as these B5 diesel fuels meet the requirements in section 3.2.2. Bio-fuels should be supplied by recognized and authorized suppliers only.
DIESEL PREHEATER As an option a diesel pre-heater can be mounted. This is a special feature for applications in extreme cold conditions. In this case the fuel filter will be inside the canopy and before the filter will be a heating element that will prevent the formation of paraffin crystals in the diesel and clogged filters as a result. The operation is temperature-related. The system is controlled by an independent switch to turn it “on” or “off”.
3.1.8 Lubricating oil
SPECIFICATIONS The engine must be run on heavy duty lubricating oil meeting the requirements in section 3.2.3. A well-known brand is recommended. It is very important to use the correct oil specification. Very often local oil suppliers recommend a higher API class, because they assume that a higher class is allowed. This is not the case. One should not follow these recommendations as these higher class oils contain additives that could cause high oil consumption.
Never mix different types of oil.

OIL VISCOSITY We recommend multi grade oil 10W40. Cold or hot conditions a special grade could be applied according to the Viscosity Chart below:
Figure 5: Viscosity chart
It is very important to select the right viscosity. Especially in cold conditions the viscosity of the oil should be low (so the oil should be “thinner”) to keep the oil pressure in the cooling system within acceptable limits.
OIL CAPACITY The content of the crankcase should be:
excluding heat exchanger and piping: 2 litres including heat exchanger and 2 m piping: 2.9 litres
Do not overfill with lubricating oil as this may have a detrimental effect on engine performance.
Refer to the maintenance chapter (Ch.5) for details.
LUBRICATING OIL PRESSURE
Minimum at idle:
49 kPa (0,5 kgf/cm2 - 7psi)
Normal at 3000 rpm:
147 .. 490 kPa (1,5 .. 5 kgf/cm2 - 21 .. 71 psi)
Minimum at 3000 rpm:
98 kPa (1,0 kgf/cm2 - 14 psi)
COOLING OIL PRESSURE
Minimum at idle:
149 kPa (1.5 kgf/cm2-21 psi)
Normal at 3000 rpm (80°C):
180 .. 220 kPa (1,8 .. 2.2 kgf/cm2 – 25 .. 35 psi)
Maximum cooling oil pressure is protected by an
overpressure switch that will trip at 550 kPa (5.5 kgf/cm2 – 80 psi). In cold condition the pressure can be higher, but the alarm will be suppressed.
COOLING OIL TEMPERATURE
Maximum oil cooling temperature 120°C (oil out to
the cooler).
Minimum oil temperature 70°C. Sump oil temperature should be between 80°C and
90°C for optimal performance
3.1.9 Oil cooling heat exchanger
The W-GV4 Scalino engine is cooled by oil and not by cooling liquid. The oil cooled heat exchanger of the W-GV4 Scalino is not ventilated. The system is ventilated by the engine itself and no expansion tank is applied.
When it is not possible to drain the oil from the heat exchanger every time the oil is changed, one should pump out the engine oil from the engine sump as well as possible and increase the oil change frequency to once every 200 running hours.
A dedicated interval recommendation can be provided for special applications by WhisperPower.

4 OPERATION
4.1 General
The GV4 Scalino is operational after full installation and filling up with fuel and engine lubricating oil; and subsequently connecting the battery and digital remote control panel. Fill with lubricating oil twice to allow the heat exchanger to get filled with oil. This is done by filling up with oil first, run for 60 seconds, and then stop the engine and fill up again.
When checking the oil level inside the lubricating oil reservoir, simply dip the dipstick into the oil without screwing the dipstick into the sump.
Figure 6: Oil dipstick
ADJUSTING GENERATOR FREQUENCY
The Scalino operates on fixed speed setting. Use the speed regulator (refer to Figure 7) to manually adjust speed within speed ranges as documented in the specifications. Untighten the regulator, move downward to adjust speed and tighten again. Make sure the PMG input voltage is not exceeded when increasing the engine speed.
Figure 7: Speed regulator
4.2 Optional variable speed mode
Realize variable speed operation by adapting ECU settings to the load on the WP-PMG.
In variable speed mode the engine will start when the starting button is pushed. The speed will adapt to the load. When an additional load will be switched on the engine will speed up. To avoid that the engine will not provide enough power to speed up while a new heavy load is added, the Minimal Engine Speed has to be set to a minimum (worst case) level from which the engine will be able to speed up again.
Example: When the engine is running at no load (or almost no load at 2500 rpm) and a 3 kW load (e.g. an air-conditioner) with an inrush current for motor starting of 4 x nominal power is switched on, the engine will probably not be able to ramp up the rpm. In this case the low speed setting has to be higher; possibly 2800 rpm. However when load steps of only 1 kW are switched on, one after another, a low speed setting at 2500 rpm will be OK. The optimal low rpm setting can be established by trial and error and can be mechanically adjusted on the engine. However, the PMG’s maximum input voltage shall not be exceeded.
4.3 Operating instructions
While in operation, monitor the Scalino AC load and voltage by means of the PMG panel LED indicators.
4.3.1 Summarized operating instructions (daily use)
“PRE-START” CHECKS Perform the following routine "pre-start" checks prior to starting the WP-GV4 Scalino:
1 Check oil level
The GV4 Scalino Genverter switches off in the event of insufficient oil pressure. Even when the oil level is too low, the oil pressure can be high enough not to trip an alarm. Do not run the engine with the oil below the lowest mark, because a smaller volume of oil will become contaminated considerably quicker than a larger volume. Also the cooling can be affected. Therefore we recommend daily oil-checks. Check oil level prior to starting the engine or at least 5 minutes after the engine has stopped.
2 Check for leakages.
3 Switch to power source selector switch to "OFF",
or switch off all consumers in the usual way.
4 Switch on the battery switch (when installed).
5 Make sure the fuel valve is open.

OPERATION
W-GV4 Scalino outdoor April 2017 EN 15
STARTING ROUTINE AND CHECKS
Figure 8: WP-PMG local panel
Start the WP_GV4 Scalino:
1 Push the START button on the WP-PMG local panel
(Figure 8) and hold for two seconds to initiate the full automatic starting procedure. As a result, the electric system is activated. You can monitor the procedure on the remote control display. The first time starting up or after running out of fuel it could be necessary to prime the fuel system. Refer to bleeding fuel system instructions in the maintenance chapter 5.2.2.
2 In case of a ‘cold start’ (starting problems may occur
in open air and/or, under winter conditions) the small orange oil screw plug on the cylinder head cover has to be removed. Add 2ml of engine lubrication oil and screw the plug back in before starting. Push down the decompression lever. It will return automatically when cranking. Never use ether or gasoline for cold start as it could damage the engine. Warm up the engine without load for 3 minutes.
3 A restart protection prevents starting the engine
when it is already running, which may cause damage.
CHECKS WHILE IN OPERATION When in operation: perform the following operational checks on a regular basis:
1 Check for abnormal noise or vibration
2 Check the output parameters on the remote control
display.
3 Observe the exhaust at the normal full load.
The exhaust must be free from soot. Do not allow the engine to run with a dirty exhaust without investigating the cause as this may result in an expensive breakdown. When ramping up rpm, the engine will probably produce some smoke. After stabilizing on the right rpm for the load the exhaust should be free from soot.
STOPPING ROUTINE How to stop then W-GV4 Scalino Genverter:
1 Switch off all electrical devices (consumers).
If the GV4 Scalino has been running under full load for a longer period, do not shut it down abruptly. Reduce the electrical load to about 30% of the rated load and let it run for approx. 5 minutes.
2 Press the PMG STOP button (Figure 8) and hold for 2
seconds.
3 Switch to another AC power source, if available.
4.3.2 Extended operating instructions
FIRST TIME CHECKS Check when starting the first time or after a longer period of rest:
1 Check for any damages caused by transport or
installation.
2 Check if the installation conforms to the installation
instructions.
3 Ensure the engine is free to turn without obstruction.
4 Check all hoses and hose connections for leaks.
5 Check all cables and terminal connections.
CHECKS DURING LONGER OPERATION Check engine load during longer operation. The first 50 hours of running the load should be restricted to 70 % of maximum load. Running for long periods at no load or light load in the first 50 hours can cause cylinder glazing and high oil consumption.
1 Ensure that the WP-GV4 Scalino is not overloaded.
Overloading occurs when the electrical load (demand) is so high that the alternator cannot be turned around properly by the diesel engine. Overloading causes the engine to run rough, while using oil and excessive fuel and producing soot by the exhaust. The engine can even stop. The Genverter should therefore only be loaded at the maximum rated power for short periods (2-3 hours) only! The high peak current is meant for the ability to start electrical devices that need a high current for starting especially electric motors and compressors (from standstill). In order to prolong the Genverter life expectancy, the nominal electrical demand on the system should be about 70% or the rated Genverter’s maximum load. Please note this when switching on your electrical devices! Nevertheless, the W-GV4 Scalino is designed so as not to overheat, even under extreme conditions.
2 Do not run the Genverter for very long periods at no
load or at very low load. When this is necessary, do load the Genverter at least one hour in 10 hours for
Page 16
OPERATION
16 W-GV4 Scalino outdoor April 2017 EN
minimum 70%. Long term running at too low load will cause the exhaust to be choked by carbon (soot).
WARNING Never remove the battery while the engine is running or any electrical cable while the battery is connected in the circuit. Only disconnect the battery with the engine stopped and all switches in "OFF" position.
STOPPING AFTER LONGER OPERATION Avoid stopping of the Genverter abruptly after a long period of operation at high load! Doing so, you avoid unnecessary thermal load to the engine! Furthermore, do not stop the engine with the decompression lever unless in emergency when there is total loss of control. Act as follows:
1 Prior to switching off the WP-GV4 Scalino, decrease
the load (i.e. turn off most electrical users) and let the Scalino run at low load for approx. 5 minutes to allow the engine to get properly cool (the influent coolant oil must flow through the system in order to cool the engine).
2 If the Genverter is operating in a hot environment
and you do not act as given above, the excessive heat in the engine can trip the "high temperature" alarms. In that case, a restart of the engine is not possible for some time. It is also recommended to switch off electrical users prior to stopping the Genverter because of the voltage drop that occurs as the engine comes to a halt.
3 Press the STOP button and hold for 2 seconds. 4 Switch to another 230V power source, if available.

5.2 Alternator
The alternator does not require any maintenance.
5.3 Engine
5.3.1 Preliminary instructions
All regular maintenance can be carried out when the enclosure is open. When oil and dirt has gathered in the enclosure measures have to be taken to avoid spilling oil and polluting the environment.
The first service on the engine should be carried out after 50 hours of its life and after a major overhaul. In the first 50 hours the engine should receive special attention:
Long periods of light or no load running in the first 50
hours may lead to cylinder glazing and high oil consumption.
For the same reason it is of the greatest importance
to use the right oil specification.
The first time starting up or after running out of fuel it
could be necessary to prime the fuel system.
5.3.2 Bleeding fuel lines
Ensure there is sufficient fuel. The system is self-bleeding. The first time starting up or after running out of fuel it could be necessary to prime the fuel system. Push the start button activating the electric system and activating the fuel pump.
When more time is needed to bleed, push “start” and “hold”
the button on the local control panel (so not on the remote panel). When holding the button the pump will work, but the
unit will not start. Hold as long as necessary to bleed the system.
5.4 Regular maintenance
5.4.1 Changing oil and cleaning the oil strainer
In practice it will not be possible to change all oil in the system, because some oil will be left in the cooling system. Therefore we recommend changing the oil twice, especially at the end of break-in: Have the engine run until it is on temperature and stop it. Drain oil by using a vacuum pump as commonly used in garages. Refill the engine with oil; start the engine and have it run for 5 minutes. Stop the engine and pause for a few minutes to let the oil gather in the crankcase. The oil strainer can be found left below on the service side. Drain the oil again and put some tissues under the oil strainer cap before removing it. Take out the strainer element and clean it if necessary using tissue or white spirit. Refill with fresh oil for the second time. Start again; after 5 minutes stop; pause for a few minutes check the level and add oil if necessary.
5.4.2 Checking the battery
Check the battery terminals for corrosion and clean if necessary.
5.4.3 Draining water from the fuel tank
Remove the drain plug and allow any water and sediment to drain. Drain at least 1 or 2 litres of fuel to remove the water and sediment.
Page 18
MAINTENANCE
18 W-GV4 Scalino outdoor April 2017 EN
5.4.4 Cleaning the external coolant radiator
Check the external radiator for leakage and air restriction. Make sure the 12VDC fan is not blocked.
5.4.5 Replacing the fuel filter
Filter change is needed when the fuel is contaminated and as part of preventive maintenance at least every 400 running hours. Before changing the filter, clamp off the supply line. Remove the hoses from filter and attach them on the new filter again. The arrow on the filter housing indicates the direction of the flow. A clogged filter results in a lack of output of the engine and irregular running.
5.4.6 Air filter element
The W-GV4 Scalino is standard supplied with an air inlet filter element. Filter change depends on environmental contamination. Replace the air filter at least every 400 running hours. The foam around the filter element can be cleaned by compressed air. Do not use solvents to clean the foam. The filter cannot be cleaned and must be replaced. Access to the filter can be obtained by unscrewing the wing nut and pulling the engine towards the service side. The filter can now be replaced.
5.4.7 Checking hoses and electrical connections
Visually check cooling hoses, fuel hoses and electrical wiring, paying particular attention to abrasion, wear and corrosion. Have items replaced when necessary.
5.4.8 Retightening cylinder head bolts and adjusting valve clearance
Both procedures have to be carried out with a cold engine. Be
sure to retighten the cylinder head bolts before adjusting the
valve clearance. First remove the valve cover.
Loosen the bolts slightly, remove the rocker assembly (the
rocker arms, shaft, and stays) and then retighten the bolts to
the specified torque in the numerical order illustrated

Valve clearance
When the engine is in cold condition both valves should have a
clearance of 0.15 ± 0.03mm. The adjustment has to be done at
top dead centre (TDC) of the compression stroke. There is a
marking on the flywheel, but this is invisible due to the PM
cover. One can find the TDC by rotating the flywheel and
watching each valve to open and close, though.
Rotating the flywheel can be realized by means of the flywheel
turning tool (article number 98002002; also refer to Figure 10).
Figure 10: Turning tool to move to Top Dead Center position
To be able to access the turning tool insertion point, first
disassemble the water pump. Rotate the flywheel clockwise,
allowing the exhaust valve to open and close and the intake
valve to open and close. After the intake valve has closed,
rotate the flywheel clockwise an additional ¼ turn. At this
position the piston will be on compression stroke and both
valves will be closed allowing valve clearance adjustment to be
completed.
Before closing the valve cover apply some oil to the contact
surface between the adjusting screw and push rod. Use a new
valve cover gasket.

5.5 Putting out of service
When not using the Genverter for a longer period it is recommended to execute an engine preservation procedure.
1 Clean the engine. 2 Loosen the fuel suction pipe and fuel return and put them
in a can with preservation diesel fuel. Start the engine and run the engine warm.
3 Stop the engine. 4 Drain the hot engine oil and refill with preservation oil.
5 Open the orange oil screw plug on the cylinder cover and
add 2 cc preservation oil. Then rotate the engine.
6 Disconnect the battery and store it in a dry place free of
frost and charge it regularly.
7 Close inlet- and outlet openings with tape. 8 Protect the Genverter against the influences of bad weather
conditions.
This method of preservation will be sufficient for 6 months. Change oil before using the engine again.
