>Does anyone Know or can tell me how to find out the Amp rating on a Bosch (AL 33X) >Alternator? the bosch booklet i have describes the Type designation this way: on each alternator (somewhere), there is a Type number like this: TLM( )28v62A11 which breaks down this way: T - stator frame diameter: E=80 to 90 mm G= 100 to 109mm J= 110 to 119mm K=120 to 139mm Q=140 to 169mm T=170 to 199mm U=over 200mm L - fan installed W - watertight (Syncros might have this?) Z - railroad (locomotive generators (!!???) M - fitted with intensified interference suppressors A, C, D, F, G, H, V = no uniform arrangement of characteristics for all stator frame diamters (!!??) ( ) = direction of rotation (viewed looking onto the end of the generator opposite the commutator end) -> or R = clockwise rotation <- or L = counterclockwise rotation 28V = generator voltage in volts 62A = maximum current in amperes 11 = speed in 100 rev/min at 2/3 maximum current. (so at 1100 rpm, the alternator is putting out 0.67 times its max current). hope that helps. :) don't see that particular model listed, but this is an old book. unca joel |
