INTRODUCTION
This generator is a 3600 RPM two-bearing, belt-driven, brush, rotating
armature design. The generator is self excited and inherently regulated
to +/- (plus or minus) 7% - no load to full rated load. It can be operated
under any load within its rating without being damaged. The frequency
regulation is determined by the sensitivity of the customer supplied
prime mover’s governor. It is desirable to maintain this speed to within
3 cycles variation (61.5 Hz - 58.5 Hz) no load to full rated load (3690
RPM - 3510 RPM)
