Description  
The 5-gallon spill box screws into the existing fuel fill port of the base tank. It captures and  
contains fuel if over fueling or spilling occurs during the fill process.

Spill Box  
The 90% fuel level alarm alerts the fuel fill operator when the tank reaches a 90% fill level by  
sounding an audible alarm and triggering an LED warning light.

Tank risers are required in some municipalities to help avoid potential base tank corrosion  
caused by mounting on rough surfaces.  
A powder coat painted, steel fuel fill drop tube is required in some municipalities to prevent  
sparking due to static electricity buildup, which can be caused by the fuel dropping into the  
tank from the fill area. Using a drop tube also results in submerged filling, which increases  
the fuel delivery flow rate and reduces vapors, foam and potential tank evaporation.

006513-0 - 15 & 20 kW  
006517-0 - 30 kW

Some municipalities require the use of stainless steel fuel lines instead of the standard hoses  
Stainless Steel Fuel Lines provided with the diesel generator products. These stainless steel lines are fire resistant for  
additional safety.  
E-stop allows for immediate fuel shutoff and generator shutdown in the event of an  
emergency.

The spill box drainback kit allows fuel that was captured in the 5-gallon spill box to be drained  
directly back into the fuel tank to avoid vapors.

The cast iron, lockable fuel cap provides the ability to lock the fuel system to prevent  
unwanted fuel tampering or fuel siphoning.

remote testing of the generator, set the exercise cycle and maintenance interval reminders.  
The PMM Starter Kit consists of a 24 VAC, field installed transformer that enables the use  
of the 24 VAC Power Management Modules (PMMs) and one PMM. The standard controller  
(without starter kit) can control two HVAC loads with no additional hardware. Not compatible  
with pre-wired switches.
