FULLY AUTOMATED GENERATORS
Polar Power DC Generators are fully automated fuel powered battery chargers. The Generator is supplied complete with the necessary microprocessor-based controls and software allowing the Generator to sense the battery state of charge and automatically start and stop. All Generator sets include: 8000 Series Alternator with marinised engine, Supra Control System, Remote Operator Panel, Mounting Frame, and captive vibration mounts.
MARINIZED ENGINE
Standard configuration is supplied with: Marinized Engine (water/glycol in the block and Cupro-Nickel seawater heat exchanger), 8000 Series Alternator, 12 Vdc starter battery Charging Alternator, Wire Harness, Supra Automatic Charging Controls, Remote Operator Display & Control, Air Filter, Captive Vibration Mounts & Frame.
The maximum kW rating shown for this model is based on engine speed in the range of 2900 RPM and at an ideal voltage output.
VARIABLE SPEED
The power output (kW) of the Generator is dependent on the engine speed range selected.
The engine speed range selected is influenced by the alternator winding configuration and the desired voltage output range.
Noise, maintenance, and fuel efficiency are additional factors influencing the selection of: the alternator model, winding configuration, and engine speed, and engine model.
FROM 12V DC to 550VDC
We offer product in the 12 to 550 Vdc range, to achieve this capability we have different alternator windings and models.
Different alternator windings also allow us to provide specific voltage ranges at different speed ranges.
If an application requires high power output in a light- weight and very compact package we select a speed range of 2500 to 3000 RPM
If the need is for long life, low noise, and better fuel efficiency then we select a range of 1600 to 1900 RPM.
If the alternator winding configuration allows we can also offer engine speeds in the range of 1900 to 2400 RPM.
The higher the voltage the wider the choice for engine speed selections.
Higher voltages should be pursued to reduce the need to high currents to obtain desired currents.
Polar invites you to use our applications forms to we can add our expertise in finding the right generator for your application.
