THE MIGHTY CHINESE GENERATOR 

There are many companies making the same design generator heads but Yanan  and Fu King  are probably about  the best.  I have handled both and both meet my tough standards.  as of 04  Iam handling Fu King  primarily 

E-mail me about generator slides and belt tensioners 

    The ST series generators are mainly designed to serve as power generating unit of small capacity which supply electricity for lighting purpose in ships as well as for household electric devices used use in towns or villages. The construction of the generators is of drip-proof, salient pole rotating field self exciting  and constant voltage type. The inner components constructed  of  high quality electro magnetic and electrical materials. Stator insulation is class B. These generators are excellent in appearance and massive in stature .

Note: two brushes per slip ring

Heads turn both directions.

 Note: the simplicity and the stocky build also the huge ball bearings and fan. This is only 10 KW set.  But they are very conservatively rated. They are 10kw @100% duty cycle. Not 50 or 60  as most of the consumer brands are. The 10 kw will surge to 13kw with ease.

Metal fans and thick slip rings. These are not plastic throw aways  

Any electric motor shop could rewind or provide wire for one .

 Some one could probably sit down and rewind one of these by hand in a weekend.

Note the huge size of these bearings.

  If they are properly lubed they will last a life time and beyond .

How to Match engines to Generators 

     Note :Make sure to derate engine output by  3 % per 1000 feet above sea level  for all naturally aspirated

These figures are conservative.                                        Generator  output             Engine Horsepower    

                                                                                  3kw                                                       6                                      6hp at 7000 feet =4.74 hp 

5kw                                                     10

7.5kw                                                  15

10kw                                                   20

12kw                                                   23

15kw                                                   25

20kw                                                   36

30kw                                                   46

40kw                                                   62

50kw                                                   75
