Kubota Diesel Genset Test Start

It's good to regularly test run auto-start gensets to be sure everything is operating properly,especially getting closer to winter.On my set-up, there is a 10 second start delay to ignore very brief power interuptions,then a 1min 30sec warm-up prior to switch over to generator power,and a 3min cool-down after power is restored.

What is that for? I've seen MBTA has a new Diesel Genset Switcher on the train motor..

@punkboy459 This genset is used to provideback-up power for a greenhouse operation.

Yes the GL is the silent series with the fully enclosed cabinet and sound proof insulation.

Maintenance is inexpensive,other than regular oil changes,and replaced the antifreeze a couple times,all that I had to replace was the battery once in the last 10 years.

Automatic window open!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice machine. How many phases are?

Isn't the GL supposed to be the super silent type?

I'm thinking about getting the GL9500 in about a month.

Is the maintenance expensive?

Thanks,me too! It was a good investment to have an auto-start system.
