GENERATOR FEATURES
Four pole, revolving field generator, directly connected to the engine shaft
through a heavy-duty, flexible disc for permanent alignment.
Generator meets temperature rise standards for class “F” insulation as
defined by NEMA MG1-22.4 and NEMA MG 1-1.65.
Stator windings are “trickle” varnished and rotor windings are “roll-dipped”
for complete impregnation.
Unit tested for motor starting ability by measuring instantaneous voltage
dip with an oscillograph.
All models utilize an advanced wire harness design for reliable interconnection
within the circuitry.
Magnetic circuit, including amortisseur windings, tooth and skewed stator
design, provides a minimal level of waveform distortion and an electromagnetic
interference level which meets accepted requirements for standard AM radio,
TV, and marine radio telephone applications.
Voltage waveform deviation, total harmonic content of the AC waveform,
and balanced T.I.F. (Telephone Influence Factor) have been evaluated to
acceptable standards in accordance with NEMA MG1-22.
Alternator is of drip-proof guarded construction.
Fully life-tested protective systems, including “field circuit and thermal
overload protection” and standard main line circuit breakers capable of
handling full output capacity.
System torsional acceptability confirmed during prototype testing.
