APCG4
High Altitude units
The standard brass burners have been designed to operate
correctly at an altitude between sea level and 4500 Ft of
elevation. If you are at an altitude higher than 4500 feet, do
not use the standard unit if yellow flames are visible. HA (High
Altitude) burners are available by contacting the factory.
If you are using the HA version of the APCG4, the burners are
designed to run leaner so that the lower oxygen level at
altitude will not affect the proper and complete combustion of
the fuel. As a result of the leaner burner calibration, the HA
version of the generator is going to produce lower CO2 output
The standard NG and LP brass burners have been designed
to produce approximately 3 Cu Ft of CO2 per hour. When the
HA (high-altitude) burners are used, the CO2 output and BTU
of each burner is reduced by approximately 15%.
The HA units be used at lower than 4500ft (down to as low as
2500ft) elevation as long as the burners are lighting (igniting)
correctly. If you plan on using the HA unit at lower elevations,
first ensure that all burners are lighting correctly and
consistently before use.
!!WARNING!! Verify that the burners are operating
correctly.
* A burner that is burning very yellow indicates a rich
condition, or possibly low oxygen levels.
* Burners that do not consistently ignite could be clogged
or not be receiving enough gas pressure.
* A burner that burns almost invisibly with a clean blue-
white flame is running correctly.
