S Series
The S series of 6 phase alternators offers incredible output in a compact and durable package. Highly efficient, these units use less horsepower per Kw produced than conventional 3 phase alternators. 12 diodes, twin rectifier plates and outstanding airflow ensure long service life, even in severe conditions. The 240 amp model offers the best balance between peak output, and output at engine idle RPM.
Installation Notes:
A single wire on the provided pigtail gets connected to any ignition switched 12V+ source to turn the alternator on and off with the ignition switch. In most applications our included P103 RVC bypass plug will keep the check battery light off. Simply run a properly sized positive and ground cable from the alternator to the terminals of the battery and the alternator will work perfectly.
This unit comes equipped with a smaller 1.75-inch diameter alternator pulley and will require a slightly shorter drive belt to be installed for proper belt tension.
