Chapter 1: Technical Features
I. Technical Features of the 15 and 20kW Single and Three-Phase, Dual-Fuel Generators
This gas generator is Dual-fuel and able to utilize both Natural Gas (NG) and Liquid Propane (LPG).
It is a versatile multi-fuel engine. Based on our standards, we have designed this unit to operate in
an environmentally safe and user friendly manner:
1. Speed Regulating System: This gas generator uses an internally designed electronic speed
control system, allowing for quick and easy adjustments to the engine speed that can be set to
specic speed ranges. This control system allows the engine to run more smoothly and respond
quickly to sudden increases or decreases in required engine speed and electrical output.
2. Silent Air In-take System: Extra-large air intake cross-sections in the housing enclosure ensures
ample air ow for the engine and air intake. This unique housing enclosure design leads to a
signicant reduction in operating noise.
3. Large Liquid Cooled Radiator and Reservoir: The use of an oversized radiator and coolant
reservoir, like those used in automobile engines, allows for additional radiator coil surface and
helps maintain a more ambient and stable engine temperature even in the hottest climates.
Utilizing this liquid cooled system adds to the life and long term operating dependability of your
liquid cooled gas generator investment.
4. Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) and Function: Our Automatic Transfer Switches are specically
designed to work with our systems and have proprietary connections. The ATS is a critical
component of any emergency or standby power system. They are used for transferring essential
loads and electrical distribution from one power source to another automatically, without
personal involvement.
5. Intelligent Hazard Control System and Function: The Intelligent Hazard Control System warns
of dangerous conditions that exist to the engine or generator. This system continually checks and
monitors the unit’s operating conditions and will automatically shut down if a problem is
detected, to help avoid costly damage. This system uses a visual control panel that can be preset
according to the user’s needs.

Chapter 2: Important Safety Instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – This manual contains important instructions for the following models
TR15REG-DB, TR20REG-DB / TR20REG-DB3 that should be followed completely during installation and main-
tenance of the generator and battery.
I. Technical Features of the 15 and 20kW Single and Three-Phase, Dual-Fuel Generators
1. Generator set operation - Carbon monoxide can cause severe nausea, fainting, or even death. Carbon
monoxide is an odorless, colorless, tasteless, non-irritating gas that can cause death if inhaled for even a
short time. Avoid breathing exhaust fumes when working on or near the generator set. Never operate
the generator set inside a building. Never operate the generator set where exhaust gas could seep inside
or be drawn into a potentially occupied building through windows, air intake vents, or other openings.
