Cars are comprised of various parts and components, which all work together to make the vehicle perform successfully. Of these mechanisms, are the battery and other electrical equipment that require power to function. In order to allow this to happen, a charging system was developed to provide a source of energy to these various components. … Continue reading The Evolution of the Alternator
The Delco 24volt 270amp 50DN oil-cooled alternator was originally designed in the 60’s and has been a workhorse in the transit bus & coach industries going on 60 years. Tried and proven though outdated, versus the new technologies available today. Almott is also an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and has an air-cooled 25AT-350 Series of alternators to replace the Oil-Cooled 50DN … Continue reading Introducing the Absolute Best Air-Cooled Alternative to Oil-Cooled Alternators
Elreg Distributors has been associated with Delco for generations, creating a lasting relationship that builds quality products. In order to continue to build innovative products, we must look at our history for guidance. The Evolution From Delco To Remy International The Delco brand is associated with powertrain, drivetrain and electrical products for original-equipment manufacturers (OEM) … Continue reading All You need to Know About Delco Remy and Remy International
An efficient alternator installed on, say, a single travel coach, can save on fuel costs and reduce the risk of breakdowns. Equip them across an entire fleet and you’ll quickly see a noticeable change in your operations. High-efficient alternators not only reduce the stress on engine components, but also save money in the long-term. Here … Continue reading How Efficient are Alternators?
24 Volt high output alternators are required on vehicles and equipment with heavy electrical demands. Compare your options here. Why do you need a High Output Alternator? OEM’s (original equipment manufacturer) spec alternators based on the load demands that they calculate will be required on the vehicle or equipment that they are manufacturing. Modifications to … Continue reading Highest Output Alternators Available – 24 Volt Systems
If you need to build a high output alternator, take a few lessons from Almott. The manufacturer has built a high efficiency alternator by making a few key adjustments to the P450 model. Almott provides a better design with lowered mechanical stress and thermal stress, with increased electromagnetic field strength. The result is improved performance … Continue reading How to Build a High Output Alternator
The alternator in your vehicle or machinery has an extremely important job to do. Without it, your battery wouldn’t be able to do its job correctly. At Leece-Neville, innovation is key, and that’s why they designed an alternator that is lighter, stronger and lasts longer than standard alternators. What makes the IdlePro Extreme Series Alternator … Continue reading Benefits of a Brushless Alternator
Typically alternators have an unfortunate side effect: excess noise creation from ripple voltage. There is inherent noise creation in any alternator, as it switches alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). It’s not possible to completely suppress the alternating waveform, so you can always expect some variation in the direct current. However, a few factors … Continue reading The Nitty Gritty of Noise Suppression
An Overrunning Alternator Decoupler or OAD has been used in the automotive industry for twenty years. But the Monster OAD™ Decoupler Pulley (keyed and splined), by Litens is new. Designed specifically for buses and a first for the transit industry, this part reduces the number of unexpected bus breakdowns caused by premature engine failure. This component … Continue reading Prolong the life of your engine with a Monster OAD™ Decoupler Pulley
Oil-Cooled Alternators are No Longer Practical – Switch to Air-Cooled Almott is an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and just introduced its 25AT-350 Series of alternators to replace Oil-Cooled 50DN alternators. These 24-volt 350-amp alternators are an environmentally friendly alternative that provides higher output than the 270-amp oil-cooled 50DN. There are huge benefits and cost savings to be … Continue reading Oil-Cooled Alternators are No Longer Practical – Switch to Air-Cooled
