Jeff - that was an interesting story about fire suppression for the generator. Something was definitely wrong with the unit and/or the installation. Many times there is a huge "gap" between the manufacturers specs and what some tech knowingly or unknowing does during the installation. Being in the Yacht service and construction business for 25 years, we have never heard of this happening and technically it’s not possible, all of these tanks are designed to vent if the temperature gets too high. Every marine system we have ever seen vents off at 175 degrees. I wonder what brand the unit was? In addition, our yard would only install such a unit to ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council) technical guidelines. In addition to specific installation requirements, ABYC standards do not allow for any part of any exhaust system to exceed 200 F, if it does it must be insulated in order to comply with that temp rating. Great advise for coaches as well, particularly in light of all the recent press regarding coach fires. We recently had the genset exhaust system on a Liberty checked for temp and found two areas that required re-insulation to meet the 200 F max temp standard. This was in addition to loose wiring and several chaffing issues that would have led to real problems down the road. Sleeping with a generator running is a significant concern if the exhaust, temperature, fire, and CO detection systems are not up to snuff. We will be installing a coach wide fire/smoke/temp/co detection and suppression system to cover all bays as well as the engine, generator and electrical panels/systems this winter. The system and installation will be ABYC compliant.
