Generac 5651 - Base Plug For Liquid-Cooled Generators
The Generac 5651 Base Plug Kit is an essential finishing accessory for all large, professionally installed Generac liquid-cooled standby generators, including models from the modern Protector Series, Protector XG Series, and older QuietSource lines. While seemingly minor, this kit plays a key role in ensuring the generator's final appearance and enclosure integrity. the Generac 5651 is a simple, low-cost accessory that provides a clean, finished appearance and seals the base of high-capacity Generac standby generators.
Features
Fills Lifting Holes:
- Liquid-cooled standby generators are extremely heavy and require specialized equipment to lift and set onto their final pad. The base frame of these units contains large oblong lifting holes (sometimes referred to as fork pockets) that accommodate slings or forklifts.
Finished Base Look:
- Once the generator is installed and the lifting equipment is removed, these holes remain open. The 5651 plugs are designed to snap into or firmly cover these holes, creating a smooth and finished base look for a sleek, streamlined appearance.
Protection:
- By filling the holes, the plugs help prevent debris, small animals, or excessive moisture from accumulating or entering the interior base compartment of the generator enclosure.
Compatibility:
- Designed for use with Generac's large liquid-cooled models (often listed as compatible with older model series like 5518 and 5883-5887, but fits various liquid-cooled units).
