Type: Brushless CAT Engine Alternator
Voltage: 24V
Current Output: 55A
Pulley Grooves: 12PK
Electrical Specifications
Rated Voltage: The alternator is designed to generate a nominal voltage of 24 volts DC (Direct Current). This voltage is crucial for powering various electrical components and charging the battery system in the excavator.
Maximum Current Output: It can supply a maximum current of 55 amperes. This determines the amount of electrical power the alternator can deliver to meet the demands of the vehicle's electrical load, such as lights, instruments, and other accessories.
Regulation Voltage Range: The alternator has a built-in voltage regulator that maintains the output voltage within a specific range. Typically, the regulation voltage range is around 27 to 29 volts. This ensures that the battery is charged properly and the electrical components receive a stable voltage supply.
Mechanical Specifications
Pulley Configuration: The 12PK pulley indicates that it has 12 grooves for the drive belt. The pulley size and groove configuration are designed to match the engine's drive system, providing the correct speed ratio for efficient power generation.
Mounting Style: The alternator is usually mounted in a specific location on the engine. It has mounting brackets or holes that are engineered to fit precisely onto the engine block or a designated mounting plate. The mounting design ensures proper alignment and stability during operation.
Overall Dimensions:
Length: The approximate length of the alternator is [X] inches. For example, it could be around 10 inches.
Width: The width is about [Y] inches, say 6 inches.
Height: It has a height of [Z] inches, which might be 8 inches. These dimensions are important for ensuring proper fit and clearance within the engine compartment.
