My "KDE19STA3" Kipor generator keeps showing fault "L&H Freq.What could be responsible and what can i do? It shuts down about 30seconds after dispalying the fault.

Hi,

Usually when errors come up, you can reference the product manual to find out the specific meaning of your error. So, please do this first. If you don't have the manual, please call the manufacturer of your product (ie Kipor) in order to gain information of the meaning. In the mean time, I would advise to shut down the generator or at least use a air volatility detector until you determine the meaning of the error.

Thank you.

Why Kipor generators have a lot of problem? I meet many question about Kipor generator.

I recommend you Cummins diesel generator

Dear my friend, where the Kipor generator do you buy? Maybe you can contact your supplier, they should know for your question. In generally, there is after-sales ervice .
More support, maybe you can visit website for reference: www.dieselgeneratortech.com

First check the oil, A low oil sensor will shut it down if more than a quart low. Then drain your water separator and change fuel and air filters. Anything outside of that is going to be mechanical (lift pump, injection pump)

Your question is general without specific details. Any one of many things will cause your generator engine to stop running.

Is this question about a Kipor KDE5000TA? If so, your generator is powered by a diesel engine. There are safety shut downs built into the generator to protect the generator head and engine. Do you have any fault codes showing on your control panel display screen? (Trouble codes P-01 through P-05 will be displayed if there's a detected fault)

If you have no fault codes, then you likely have a fuel problem. Do the obvious:

1. Visually check the fuel level in your tank. DO NOT rely on your fuel gauge. It may be stuck or otherwise not working.
2. If you have fuel, check your fuel filter. It may be clogged. If your fuel filter is good, you may have water contamination.
3. Drain your tank and refill with fresh #2 diesel fuel. I use "Diesel 911" with a biocide to prevent water contamination and bacteria growth in my fuel.
4. Make certain your fuel oil supply and return lines are clear, not leaking, and the fittings are tight.

I know I'm shotgunning, peppering the target. However, I don't have enough information to zero in on a specific area where the problem could be. Good luck!

Sounds like an overload on the board. Be sure you're not drawing more amperage out of the plugs on the front of the unit than is listed (typically 12.5 or 20 amps is the limit). If you try and draw more or a surge on the appliance happens during startup, you may end up having to use the 240 volt plug and direct that into a distribution panel to get the 110v unhindered by the plug limitations.

There is no way to adjust voltage on just one phase. I would check voltage sensing leads and check to see if there is a way to calibrate. Otherwise it sounds like a logic problem.
