GENERATOR AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR

摘要

A generator system and method are provided. The generator system including an internal combustion engine coupled to a generator. The internal combustion engine produces exhaust gases when operating. The system further includes a gas detector positioned in an enclosure into which exhaust gas may move. The detector is coupled to a signal transmitter that is operable to send a signal if a predetermined level of a selected gas or compound is sensed. The signal is received by an engine shut down device that is operable to shut down engine operation after the signal is received.
