DESCRIPTION (GENERATOR WITH IC REGULATOR)

The generator features a solid-state regulator that is mounted inside the generator. All regulator components
are enclosed into a solid mold, and this unit is attached to the brush holder frame. The regulator voltage
setting cannot be adjusted.
Two brushes carry current through the two slip rings to the rotor coil which is mounted on the rotor. The stator
windings are assembled on the inside of a laminated core that forms part of the generator housing. A rectifier
bridge, which is connected to the stator windings, contains eight diodes, and electroically changes the stator
A.C. voltage to D.C. voltage which appers at the generator output terminal.
