Generator enclosure becomes excessively hot, components show signs of heat stress

Safety: High ambient temperatures can affect both engine and electrical components. Monitor temperatures and shut down if necessary.

• Inspect airflow paths: Ensure all intake and exhaust louvers on the Perkins generator canopy are clear of debris and obstructions.
• Check fans: If auxiliary fans are fitted, verify they run when the generator operates. Replace failed fan motors.
• Room ventilation: Confirm that the generator room has adequate fresh air supply and hot air extraction per installation guidelines.
• Exhaust routing: Make sure exhaust pipes are properly insulated and routed outside, not discharging near air intakes.
