CS144 Series Self Exciting (One-Wire) 200 Amp Extreme Duty Dual Rectifier Alternator
|
Item Number: D1CS144DR200SE
|
EXTREME DUTY DUAL RECTIFIER™ The rectifier is the most common cause of alternator
failure. It's the only choice for
super heavy duty operation. If you are using your alternator to it's extreme, YOU MUST HAVE THIS ALTERNATOR!
For GM Vehicles and other adapted applications Offered in 140, 170, 200 and now!, 250 amp versions with many different
front housing mounting configurations for a direct fit in your GM
vehicle or adaptive fit to many vehicle types. We have helped with many
adaptive applications like Busses, Porsche's, Boats, Fords and many
others.
Alternators produce AC current, just like
the current from your house wall outlet. Then it uses a bridge rectifier,
typically with 6 diodes, to convert the AC current to DC for the battery
and vehicles electrical system. With Dual Rectifiers, you get 12 Diodes,
which spreads the current load over a much larger area making the
alternator twice as durable and twice as efficient at converting the AC
current it makes to DC. The many benefits include: less heat build
up, less current loss, higher amperage output when hot, more power at
idle. Plus, the
service duty and life increases substantially. When the rectifier heats
up the diodes won't pass as much amperage through them, therefore, the
amperage output drops. With our double rectifier alternator you have
twice the amperage carrying capacity and double the cooling surface area
to keep the diodes cool. This all adds up to......
MORE POWER, LESS HEAT PROBLEMS and GREATER RELIABILITY.

| Self-Exciting Alternator: Is
an alternator that uses a special voltage
regulator that doesn't need an ignition wire to activate it. This type
alternator only requires a battery wire hooked to it. The voltage
regulator contains circuitry that uses the residual magnetism in the
alternators fields to
determine when to turn the alternator on. The regulator does this by
sensing the RPM the
alternator is turning, when it gets to a certain rpm the voltage
regulator "turns
on". Typically you start the vehicle, with the SI series you must rev
the motor slightly then alternator starts charging, with the CS series
you do not need to rev the motor, the alternator starts charging right
away.
