7 Operation24 100_0402_op_0003.fm7.3 InstallationSet up the generator so it is protected from rain, snow or other forms of moisture.The ground must be solid and level in order to prevent slipping or displacement.Do not direct the engine exhaust to an area with people.Both the work area as well as the components must be protected from all formsof moisture.7.4 Current depreciationGenerators run differently due to altitude and temperature differences.Unmodified internal combustion engines have reduced performance at highaltitudes due to the lower air pressure. This means less performance andtherefore a reduced power exploitation. As soon as temperatures increase, anengine runs less economically and electrical components have more resistance.For every 500 meters above high altitudes of 1000 meters above sea level, theperformance of the generator is reduced by 3%. For outside temperatures above40 degrees Celsius, the generator performance is reduced by 3% for everyadditional 5 degrees. The tables shown help with the high altitude and outsidetemperature performance devaluation. In order to determine the true generatorperformance, it may be necessary to consider both the high altitude andtemperature devaluation factors.
