VOLTAGE ADJUST
The screwdriver adjustable potentiometer adjusts the generator output voltage. Adjustment
clockwise increases the generator output voltage.
When using a remote voltage adjust rheostat, remove the jumper wire across terminals 6 and 7
and install a 2000 ohm 1/2 watt (minimum) rheostat. This will give ±10% voltage variation from
the nominal. (For ±5% voltage variation use a 1000 ohm 1/2 watt rheostat). See Figure 2.
STABILITY ADJUST
System stability is the ability of the generator to respond to load transients. Decreasing the
stability makes the generator less sluggish and faster to respond to toad transients. If the stability
of the regulator is decreased too much, the generator will tend to hunt under steady state
conditions.
The screwdriver adjustable potentiometer adjusts the system stability. Adjustment clockwise
increases the stability. Increasing the stability increases the response time of the generator.
Conversely, decreasing the stability decreases the response time of the generator.
V/HZ ROLL-OFF FREQUENCY SELECTION
The roll off point is the frequency where the generator voltage starts to decrease. This reduces
the Kilowatt load to the engine, which allows the engine to recover in speed under any load
transient condition. Use jumper to select 50 HZ or 60 Hz. The screwdriver adjustable
potentiometer sets the roll-off frequency from 54-61 Hz in the 60 Hz setting or from 45-51 Hz in
the 50 Hz setting.
The SE350 has the roll-off point preset to 58 Hz in the 60 Hz mode and 48 Hz in the 50 Hz
mode. To change the roll-off point, adjust engine speed to the desired rated speed. (50 or 60 Hz).
Set the voltage to the desired setting at rated speed. Adjust engine speed to the desired roll-off
point. Turn the potentiometer counterclockwise until the voltage starts to drop off. Then adjust
the potentiometer clockwise until the voltage returns to rated voltage. Re-adjust engine speed to
rated speed.
