VC-014DS
Stator and Rectifier Tester
The Motoplat VC-014DS parts tester combines two devices:
a stator winding tester and a rectifier tester.
Once the stator is connected, the VC-014DS only take a few
seconds to identify the phase connections and then checks
the windings for any short circuits or connection failures.
The rectifier test includes checking the circuit connections
and measuring their operability.
All the above mentioned data and results will appear on a
LCD touch screen.
ENGLISH
This small and light weighted tester was developed
VERSION 2017
according to the requirements of service stations and works
without any additional testing or measuring devises.

Page 7: Alternator Stator Test
Motoplat ® Section 3 – Alternator Stator Test 3.0 General information: A stator is a fixed element of an alternator that consists of a magnetically conductive core with circular mounted coil windings. By rotating the stator, the rotor generates alternating current. The frequency... - Page 8 Motoplat ® Phase windings can be connected in a ‘delta’ or ‘star’ diagram. The windings are placed into a frame of steel slots (stator core) to conduct magnetic current from the rotor to the stator windings directly and to reduce area dispersion of the magnetic field.

Page 9: Common Failures
Motoplat ® 3.1 Common failures: Inter-turn fault (single-phase short circuit): Alternator overload – When the alternator current exceeds the limit, the stator windings can be overheated and this can cause damage to the winding insulation. Short circuit due to mechanical damage of the stator. -

Motoplat ® 3.2 Scan: Start the tester by pressing the power button and select ‘STATOR’ Connect the test leads with the alligator clips to the phases of the stator. It doesn’t matter which phase is connected to which connection port, as the tester detects the connected windings automatically. -

Motoplat ® 3.3 Test: After the connections are detected, you can start the stator test. Place the test pen againt the stator core. Press on ‘Test’ at the right side of the screen. Press on ‘Test’ at the right side of the screen. - Page 12 Motoplat ® Rejected (Example) The notification ‘short’ appears on the display and the tester makes a repeating sound. There is a 1% difference between the phases which corresponds to the acceptable limit of 10%. This means the winding insulation of phases 5-6 is broken and causes short circuited.

Motoplat ® 4.2 Test The VC-014DS tests the 2 way conduction of rectifiers, connected through measuring cables. The tests are conducted by current pulsations. Increased resistance (semiconductor degeneracy) or non-conducting diode(s) are indicated as open circuit on the display. If possible, the tester restores the rectifier connections В+, В- and connection terminals of the stator windings upon finishing the measurement. - Page 15 Disconnected cables must be isolated from each other. Press the test button. The VC-014DS tests the connected rectifier and shows the results on the screen. Passed (Example) The test results of a well-functioning three-armed rectifier are shown on the right.
