4 Frequently Asked Questions about "Exhaust distance of generator cabinet set"

Should a generator have a separate exhaust system?

Ensure that the emitted smoke and exhaust gas do not become a public hazard. Each generator set must have an independent exhaust system. When more than one generator set is installed in the generator room, each should have an independent exhaust system.

Do Indoor generators need exhaust pipes?

All indoor generator sets must discharge exhaust gas outdoors through non-leaking exhaust pipes. The installation of exhaust pipes must comply with relevant specifications, standards, and other requirements.

How do you keep a generator from scalding?

Mufflers, exhaust pipes, turbochargers, etc., generate high temperatures and should be kept away from flammable materials to prevent human scalding. Ensure that the emitted smoke and exhaust gas do not become a public hazard. Each generator set must have an independent exhaust system.

How thick should a diesel generator exhaust pipe be?

The wall thickness of all exhaust pipes should not be less than 3mm. 3.The direction of the diesel generator exhaust pipe should be fireproof. The part extending out of the room should have a slope of 0.3%-0.5%, sloping towards the outside to facilitate the discharge of oil fume condensate and condensed water out of the room.
