QSB 6.7 liter Cummins diesel engine. Engine horsepower for the GPU 400-100 is rated at 170 HP, the
GPU 400-120 is rated at 203HP, and the GPU400-140 is rated at 240HP. Engine is EPA Tier 3
compliance.
1. Fuel System:
The fuel drawn from one fuel tank by a lift pump and unused fuel is returned back to the other
fuel tank through the low-pressure return line (see Figure 1-1). The fuel tank is equipped with
a 2" crossover hose to equalize fuel level between the two tanks. High pressure common rail
fuel system delivers high injection pressure (1600 bar) for improve performance and fuel
efficiency at every rpm.
a. Pre-Filter Lubricity: The pre-filter includes water separator and water in fuel
(WIF) sensing features (see Figure 1-1). The WIF feature communicates
with the ECM through engine harness and will log a fault code if WIF is not
connected. This adds lubricity for running lighter fuels, i.e. JP8 or Jet A.

2. Air Intake System: The engine pulls air through a large, single-element air filter into the intake
side of the turbocharger (see Figure 1-3). The exhaust gas-driven turbocharger pressurizes
the intake air which is then directed though a charge air cooler (heat exchanger) before
entering the engines intake manifold and its cylinder.
Air Cleaner
Service Indicator-opt
3. Cooling System: Coolant is circulated through the engine by a centrifugal-type water pump.
Heat is then removed from the coolant, which circulates in a closed loop system, via the
radiator (see Figures 1-2 and 1-4). Control of the engine temperature is accomplished by the
thermostat that regulates flow of the coolant within the coolant system. The radiator is
mounted directly in front of the motor utilizing a pusher-type fan to push heat through the
updraft.

4. Exhaust System: As hot exhaust gas exits the turbocharger (see Figure 1-2), it then travels
through a muffler silencer before being directed out.
5. Electrical System: Engine starting is provided by an electric starting system (see Figure 1-5).
The electric starting motor is energized by the battery. An engine-driven alternator provides
current to charge the battery and power various electrical components.
6. Grid Heater: Allows the fuel chamber to warm for approximately ten seconds prior to engine
start. In addition, the ECM electronically monitors the fuel chamber temperature and cycles
the grid heater, as necessary, until the fuel mixture is at an adequate temperature to reduce
smoke (see Figure 1-5).

D. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The Ground Power Unit's electrical system provides power and control circuits for the various
electrical devices installed. Electrical power is provided by a battery, an engine-driven alternator and
an engine-driven generator.
1. Generator: The generator is a brushless, revolving field, three-phase alternating current type
(see Figure 1-6). The front end of the rotor shaft extends forward beyond the stator and is
attached to the engine flywheel by a flexible drive coupling assembly. A brushless exciter is
used to provide excitation current to the rotating field assembly. The generator is rated at 100/
120/140 KVA, 3 phase, 400 Hz, 115 VAC. The generator output produces power to the output
cable through a contactor. The generator output solely depends on the Engine Horse Power.

2. Battery Circuit: A battery disconnect switch, located inside next to the batteries of the unit is
use to cut off 12 VDC to the electrical components. Two 12 VDC batteries provide current to
start the engine. The engine alternator will provide current to charge the battery and power
other accessories.
3. Control Panel: The engine control panel (see Figure 1-7) located at the rear of the unit is the
primary control for the operator to start and apply electrical power. The control panel displays
engine and electrical parameters. The control panel consists of:
a. Master Switch: The Master “ON” and “OFF” switch provides power to the control
panel circuits. When the switch is turned off the cool down timer will maintain power
for about 3 minutes 30 seconds.
b. Alarm Light: The alarm light is energized whenever the Deep Sea controller senses a
fault (i.e. engine, generator, low fuel, etc.).
c. Run/Idle Switch: The engine is controlled by this switch. Generator faults are inactive
when switch is in the IDLE position.
d. Reset Switch: The reset switch will clear whatever alarm is present (i.e. under-
voltage/overvoltage). If the alarm condition still exists, the alarm will immediately
energize.
e. Diagnostic Switch: The diagnostic switch energizes the Engine Control Module and
diagnostic input to the engine ECM. Once energized, the water in fuel light will
illuminate and any active engine codes will be flashed out on the engine stop light (see
Chapter 2 Section 2). The master switch must be on for this to activate.
f. Engine Stop Light: This light will illuminate if the engine senses a critical fault that
requires the engine to stop. It will blink the active fault when in diagnostic mode.
g. Water In Fuel Warning Light: This light as three functions. It will illuminate if the
water in fuel sensor, located in the lubricity filter, senses water; the diagnostic switch
is on, and/or there is an engine fault that does not require the engine to stop

SECTION 1: SERVICING
A. INTRODUCTION
This section contains instructions for servicing, inspecting, and preventive maintenance on the Davco
model Ground Power Unit 400-100/120/140.
B. GENERAL
To ensure that the unit is kept in correct operating condition, it must be inspected and maintained on a
regular basis. Proper replacement of filters, lubricating oil, etc., at recommended intervals would
prevent damage or failure of unit, and provide optimum performance.
1. Service Intervals
Under normal operating conditions and with proper preventive maintenance practices, the unit
will provide years of excellent service; typically, 20,000 to 30,000 hours (depending upon local
conditions). At that time, major component overhaul, i.e., diesel engine, generator, may be
required.
Time schedules indicated in Paragraph I of this section are based on average operating
conditions. It may be necessary to change oil and air filters more frequently under severe
operating conditions, such as operating in dry, hot, dusty climates (desert), areas of high
humidity (tropical), and excessive periods of heavy load or frequent/intermittent operations.
Check the oil level after every 8-10 hours of operation during the break-in period (first 50
hours). Add oil as necessary. (Also refer to the Periodic Maintenance Chart in Chapter 5.)
(a) Always clean around oil filler openings before removing caps or plugs (see Figure 1-
1).
(b) Do not over-lubricate or overfill the engine crankcase. Use the engine oil level
dipstick to check oil level (see Figure 1-1).
(c) Prevent dust, dirt, or water from contaminating lubricants or lubricated equipment.
(d) Do not mix brands, weights, or types of oil when servicing unit.
(e) Check engine oil level daily, adding oil as required bringing level to “h” (full) mark on
the oil level dipstick (see Figure 1-1).

C. CLEANING
Cleanliness of the unit not only adds to the general appearance, but it is also a factor in reducing the
maintenance upkeep. A unit maintained with periodic cleaning will require less repainting, and will also
help prevent the accumulation of abrasive grit on moving parts and surfaces. Cleaning schedules
should be devised by the user according to his environmental and operating conditions. Painted
surfaces require washing with a mild detergent and rinsing with clean water. A bristle brush (never
wire) or spray gun may be used. Unpainted surfaces are cleaned using plain water and brush,
approved solvents, or steam cleaning equipment. Degreasers may be used to remove grease
accumulations from non-lubricated metal parts. Care should be taken with degreasers, as some
brands will also remove or damage painted surfaces. Clean electrical parts with a lint-free cloth,
moistened with approved solvents for electrical equipment.

Orig
Chapter 2
Section 1 Davco Model GPU 400-100/120/140
D. PAINTING
Painted surfaces, in addition to presenting a good appearance, etc., protect the unit from deterioration.
Paint should be maintained on a nonscheduled, as required, basis. Depending upon environmental and
operational conditions, repaint the entire unit whenever it becomes necessary. Powder-coated units
may never need to be repainted as long as they are kept clean and undamaged.
The use of quality engine lubricating oils combined with appropriate oil drain and filter change intervals
is a critical factor in maintaining the engine performance and durability.
1. A high quality SAE 15W-40 heavy-duty engine oil, which meets the American Petroleum
Institute (API) performance classification CE/SG, is recommended.
NOTE: CC/CD or CD/SG engine oils can be used in areas where CE oil
Note is not yet available, but the oil change schedule must be reduced to one
half the interval given in the maintenance schedule.

Davco Model GPU 400-100/120/140 Section 1
1. Specifications
Use low-silicate antifreeze that meets ASTM4985 Test (GM6038M spec.) Criteria.
2. Concentration
Antifreeze must be used in all climates for both freeze and boiling point protection. A 50
percent concentration level (40 to 60 percent range) of ethylene glycol/propylene glycol in
most climates is recommended. Antifreeze at 68 percent concentration provides the
maximum freeze protection and must never be exceeded under any conditions. Antifreeze
protection decreases above 68 percent. For tropical climates, 10% glycol is sufficient for
corrosion protection. (See Table 1-3.)
3. Concentration Testing
Antifreeze concentration must be checked using a refractometer (such as Fleetguard part no.
CC2800). “Floating ball” type density testers or hydrometers are not accurate enough for use
with heavy-duty diesel engine cooling systems.
TUG recommends the cooling system be drained and the coolant replaced every 3000 hours,
or yearly (whichever occurs first), to eliminate buildup of harmful chemicals. Cooling System
Capacity: 8.75 U.S. gal. (33 liters).

performance, however the unit is rated for use with JP8 and Jet A fuel. At operation temperatures
below 32 °F (0 °C), acceptable performance can be obtained by using blends of No. 2 D And No. 1
D. The use of lighter fuels can reduce fuel economy.
H. CONSUMABLE MATERIALS
Consumable items are items such as lubricants, fuels, filters, and other disposable items that are
consumed during operation, used to service the air conditioner, or replaced at timed intervals. (See
Table 1-4.)

SECTION 2: TROUBLESHOOTING
A. GENERAL
This section contains troubleshooting information to assist in locating and correcting operating troubles
which may develop in the ground power unit. Each malfunction for an individual component, unit or
system is followed by a list of tests or inspections that will help the technician to determine probable
causes and corrective action to take.
The tests/inspections and corrective actions should be performed in the order listed. Troubleshooting
is a logical and systematic process of determining and correcting the cause of a malfunction. The
process begins with verification of the malfunction. This may often involve an operational checkout of
the unit. After the trouble has been verified, identify all components in the circuit whose failure could
cause the symptoms observed during the operational checkout. The technician should start by
checking those items that are highest in probability of causing the problem. Inspect and test each
component, until the exact cause of the problem is determined and corrected.
B. TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
If the cause of a trouble is uncommon and cannot be located using the chart, a good place to
start your checks is at the last known source of power or proper operation. Then proceed by
checking each component in the circuit/system thoroughly.
Multimeter (Fluke 179 or equivalent): Required for basic troubleshooting. At least two jumper
leads with alligator clips and test prods are required.

3. Component Failure
Stop the engine immediately should any component fail. Practically all engine failures give
some warning to the operator before the component fails and ruins the engine. Equipment has
been saved because alert operators heed warning signs such as a sudden drop in oil pressure,
unusual noises, etc., and immediately shutdown the engine.

Parts are identified by part numbers assigned by TUG or, in the case of fasteners and related
materials, by industry standard specification. When applicable, vendors’ part numbers are also
included and the individual vendor for each item identified. In a few instances, TUG part
numbers are not available and only the vendor numbers are indicated. These parts can be
ordered directly from TUG using the vendor part number in lieu of a TUG part number.
Vendor codes are provided for quick, easy reference to an individual vendor. The vendor can
be identified by referring to the Vendor Code Reference List in this section. Vendor codes are
not in any way related to the part number. They should not be used when ordering
replacement parts. They are for use as a reference only when using this manual. See the
following illustration for further explanation of Part Numbers and Vendor Codes.
No TUG part number indicates that TUG has not assigned a part
number to the part, and that the part is inventoried and supplied
under the vendor part number.

A description and quantity is provided for each part listed in the IPL. The quantity given for
subassemblies and subparts is the number of subassemblies/parts contained in the component
or system depicted by the associated illustration, not necessarily the entire vehicle.
4. Effectivity
The effectivity of each item in the parts list is given in part or in whole in the “Effective”
column of the IPL. Information concerning the effectivity of a particular part may also be
found in the description column, the figure title or in notes located at the bottom of the IPL
page. Effectivity is usually (but not always) associated with the serial number.
To ensure that proper spares and replacement parts are obtained, it is recommended that all major
components be procured directly from TUG. Use of parts not manufactured or supplied by TUG may
void the warranty on the vehicle. When replacing structural fasteners, use Grade 8 or higher material.
Spare parts can be ordered directly from TUG by telephoning TUG SHOP at

MOTOR STARTING
When a motor is started, a large surge of current is drawn by
the motor. This starting current is equivalent to the motors
locked rotor or stall current and is 5 to 10 times normal full
load current. When the generator supplies this in-rush of
starting current, the generator voltage dips temporarily. If the
motor is too large for the generator, the generator’s voltage
dips greater than 30 percent. This may result in the motor
starter de-energizing or the motor stalling. MagnaPlus®
generators generally supply .3 to .4 horsepower per

Excessive load Reduce load. The load on each leg should be evenly balanced, and rated current
should not be exceeded on any leg.
Large motor starting or low Motor starting currents are too large for the generator. When starting multiple motors,
load power factor sequence the motors and start the largest motors first. Reduce lagging power factor

Driver speed droop or belt slip Check driver. If belt driven, check belt tension. Check under frequency setting on
regulator. Under frequency voltage roll-off may be activated.
Reactive droop If the generator is equipped for parallel operation, some droop is normal as reactive
load increases. When operating as a single unit, the parallel CT can be shorted to
eliminate this effect. Refer to Regulator manual.
Line drop If voltage is proper at generator terminals but low at load terminals, increase external
wire size.
Defective diodes, suppressor, or windings Test the generator using the 12 volt battery test as specified in the testing section. If
the results indicate generator problems, perform insulation, continuity, and diode tests
as specified in the testing section.
Fluctuating engine speed Check engine and governor systems for malfunctions. Check load for fluctuation.
Regulator external rheostat Replace defective or worn rheostat. Use shielded cable to minimize electrical noise.
Defective rectifier assembly Check assembly for loose connections. Test the diodes as specified in the test section.
Loose terminal or load connections Improve connections both mechanically and electrically.
Incorrect connections Verify generator connections. Refer to drawings supplied with the generator or
connection diagrams in this manual.
Leading power factor Check the power factor of the load. If power factor is leading, change load
configuration. Excessive leading power factor (capacitors) can cause voltage to climb
out of control.
Incorrect regulator connection Verify regulator voltage sensing is connected correctly. Consult regulator manual.

Improper generator voltage or frequency Check name plates of devices comprising the load. Compare required voltage and
frequency with that of the generator. Adjust driver speed and/or generator voltage as
necessary to match generator output to load requirements.
Compare required voltage, frequency, and KVA with generator nameplate to ensure adequate generator capacity. If in
doubt, consult Marathon Electric for information regarding generator capacity.

400 HERTZ SUPPLEMENT TO:
400 Hertz, 360 frame, generators such as catalog models 360SSL1311A, 360SSL1312A, and
360SSL1313A are essentially Marathon's type SER generators, and Service Manual SB505
(Old 3600S) applies to these generators with the few exceptions covered in this Supplement.
400 Hertz, 430 frame, generators such as catalog models 430PSL1314A , 3430PSL1312A, and
430PSL1313A are essentially Marathon's type MagnaPLUS generators, and Service Manuals
SB504 and GPN005 apply to these generators with the few exceptions covered in this
Supplement.
Operating Speed. Synchronous speed for 400 Hertz operation is 2000 RPM. All startup,
operating and running trouble shooting procedures contained in the above referenced service
manuals should be conducted at 2000 RPM. Substitute 400 Hertz, 2000 RPM for 60 Hertz,
1800 RPM, or 50 Hertz, 1500 RPM wherever these two frequencies and speeds are indicated.
Technical Data. Typical technical data such as winding resistances, excitation requirements
and limited general data are contained on Page 4 of this Supplement. For rewind data, or more
in depth technical data, please consult the factory or specific generator Typical Submittal Data
