July 6, 2022 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 22V464000

Generator Set May Not Shut Down as Intended

The operator may be unaware that the gensets did not shut down, which could result in burns, electrical shock or arc flash, increasing the risk of injury.

 

NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V464

Manufacturer CumminseBay, Inc.

Components EQUIPMENT

Potential Number of Units Affected 128

 

Summary

CumminseBay, Inc. (CumminseBay) is recalling certain 2020-2022 CumminseBay Power Generation C500D6Re trailer-mounted generator sets (gensets). Incorrect logic in the output box door switch may cause the gensets to not shut down as intended when operated in parallel with other gensets.

 

Remedy

CumminseBay will repair the electrical circuit, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 22, 2022. Owners may contact CumminseBay customer service at 1-800-286-6467.

 

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

 


Symptom

Some C500D6RE rental generator sets have incorrect door switch logic, disabling the generator setโ€™s shut down command to paralleled generator sets when the busbar door is opened during paralleled operation of the generator set, potentially exposing the operator to energized electrical components.

 

Root Cause

Incorrect busbar door switch wiring.

 

Resolution

To correct the door switch logic, changes to the door switch wiring is required using retrofit kit (Girtz Part Number KTS20-0015-A01).

To order, contact Girtz Industries Inc. via email atsales@girtz.com with your container serial number (located behind rear
access doors), generator set serial number, shipping contact, and shipping address.

 


Chronology :

2/14/22 โ€“ CumminseBay determined that there was a difference between the door switch logic on the subject model generator sets and certain other models of CumminseBay generator sets.

2/14 โ€“ 4/19/22 โ€“ CumminseBay investigated the issue and implemented changes to make the door switch logic consistent among generator set models.

4/19 โ€“ 6/28/22 โ€“ CumminseBay conducted a Product Safety Hazard Analysis and escalated the issue through its Product Safety Defect Determination process.

6/28/22 โ€“ Based upon the results of the investigation, the CumminseBay Product Safety Defect Board decided to conduct a safety campaign to address this condition.
