That is a pin and sleeve. It looks like it might have been added. (My hands on with the 80x series is limited) I have seen these hard wired, pin and sleeve, camlock, etc. as long as the connecting means is rated for the voltage and current its fine
Atmosphere is 70 some odd % n2 already. If i were to do a gas blanket it would be argon.
I store fuel in 6 gallon tanks and i have had really good luck with biocide.

100% yes you need to ground the frame of the treater to the generator frame. Technically you really should have a breaker between the generator and treater, mainly because the generator breaker is made to protect the generator, it can put out more current than desired for the treater and wire.
Bonding: Make sure the neutral (L0) is electrically tied to the chassis, The machine needs to be grounded back to the generator frame as well. It is also a good idea to have a ground rod (this way the ground reference is the same as the ground). If it is impractical to have a ground rod (it...
Remember proper bonding. If its only powered from the generator it is a separately derived system, so the neutral needs to be bonded to ground.

Does your hook up have a neutral? If it does then something uses 120. Of they are rated at 220 then 208 will be just fine.

Okay this changes things slightly, you need to look at your equipment and see if there is anything that runs 120 volt. If there isn't anything requiring 120 then you can Crank It Up. Also look at the motors and see if they have anything on the nameplate saying usable at 208.

Do yourself a favor and get a load (a floodlight or heater goes a long way) on the unused leg.
Pad wise I would pour one, but thats just my opinion

Thats where things get tricky. Double delta and zigzag are not commonly used. The last time I had set one of these up they were 3 single phase transformers that we wired together
As for kva its all about the amperage you want, It wont produce more than you put in (generator is 60 kw you wont...
unless the compressors are a dual speed no, they draw the same current weather cooling or heating.
There are many ways to set this up so there isnt a singular answer.
Fast and easy use 2 legs, which gives you 208 volt
transformer delta to delta 240 volt but 2/3 capacity...
That switch selects what the volt meter is connected to. In single phase mode you only need the 2 most clockwise positions. most clockwise is L3 to L0 and should read approx 120 the other is L1 to L3 and should read approx 240.
I am only seeing 3 conductors, there should be 4.
