Changfa Engines / Changfa's Alphabetic Codes
« on: August 31, 2006, 02:07:31 PM »
On Changfa's site, they say that "N" means condenser (the water condenser/radiator thing that sits on the hopper? the thing that is reported as "to be upgraded ASAP?)

"P" means pump. What kind of pump? Fuel pump? Water pump?

"M" means electric start.

"G" means... what?

"ZS" before the model number means what?

"CFS" models... vs. "CFZ" or "CFS" or "ZS" or "CS"... what are the differences in all these different model configurations of the same engine!?

Does anyone know any of the answers to the significance of these codes?

Generators / Re: Transfer switch with no subpanel?

Procrustes, I also live in Canada, and was told by a generator supplier that the whole-panel box sells for about $1,000. for a 100-amp service and about $200 more for a 200-amp service/panel. These are to code in Ontario. In NY, I have seen transfer boxes, whole-house, from about $300 US, but not sure whether they are "legal" or even safe here.

I agree that switching the whole thing is much simpler, and then selecting the loads yourself. If you run too much stuff, you will know about it soon enough. Something will not run well (usually a motor or pump), or your engine will complain audibly or visually.
