Hi-Power is now offering a low voltage brushless PM generator. This user-friendly unit requires no adjustments and is more efficient than car alternator types over a wider range of head and flow.
FEATURES: - Head range: 40 to 500 feet - Flow range: 5 to 400 gpm - Maximum power: 1200 watts - Efficiency: 30% to 70% - Battery voltage options: 12V, 24V, 48V, 96V
Available in the four voltages above for direct battery charging. The 48 and 96 volt units allow the use of smaller gauge wire between the generator and the battery. An MPPT charge control, like the Outback MX-60, can be used to efficiently step the voltage down for charging and regulating 12, 24 or 48 volt batteries.
The sealed permanent magnet alternator is mounted on a Harris housing with the bronze Harris Pelton wheel. The external rectifier is water-cooled and all fasteners are stainless steel. It comes with an induction meter and 3 feet of 1" flexible hose per nozzle.
Order multiple nozzles for convenient adjustment to varying flows. Alternator has 2 sealed 6203 bearings which should be changed every 5-10 years, depending on use. When ordering, specify battery voltage, transmission line length and size, flow, pressure, pipe size and length.
