FEATURES

2.3.1

General

The WhisperPower two and three cylinder Genverters combine
2 and 3 cylinder engines with highly efficient Permanent
Magnet alternators. The voltages and frequencies produced,
however, require Genverters to be connected to WhisperPower
PowerCubes or Power Modules producing clean DC or AC
output, as applicable. This is an original concept, which is cost-
effective as wells as easy on installation.
2.3.2

Construction

The Genverter incorporates a diesel engine which has a
permanent magnet alternator in the flywheel. The engine is
mounted on a steel base frame and mounted securely on a
double set of anti-vibration mounting pads in a sound
attenuated canopy. The output of the power from the
alternator will be from zero to 300V-400Hz and 400V-500Hz,
depending on the engine speed. The engine speed is set to
strike a balance between fuel efficiency and comfort. All cables
and hoses are guided through the capsule's sides.
2.3.3

Control

The Digital Control system of the Genverter is based on
microprocessor technology. Several operating modes and
automatic start/stop functions can be programmed and
monitored (refer to Digital Diesel Control user's manual).
