    MEP-805 Frequency Fluctuation

    Ohh boy. Low voltage makes havoc on the 805b and 806b cim module. Causes it to restart etc. So yes, weak batteries and an alternator not rotating at the correct speed will affect the unit.

    MEP-802/803 load bank info

    I live in hot weather all year and load bank these units to 12-14kw right off the bat (10 seconds after start). Thats real world scenario for these units. If they are gonna leave my shop, they must pass this test and run for 1 hour at atleast at 12kw surging to 14kw. Thats also the best way to...

    MEP-805 Frequency Fluctuation

    Check the mag pickup. Could be sending incorrect reading to the governor and thus messing with the actuator. Check for 2.8-3vac. If not, remove, clean and readjust tgr mpu. The TM has the procedure. If this does not help, try to rule out the IP by releasing the linkage and setting it manually to...

    Mep-1050, mep-1051, 4-1050, 4-1051

    So this is what I learned today while tinkering with the 15kw. I swapped (2) 60kw control cubicles and they registered as 15kw units immediately on display with no changes made by me in the configuration. Only got a message that the configuration changed and the message went away after I hit...

    Mep-1050, mep-1051, 4-1050, 4-1051

    Ok. Confirmed it has 12 same sized wires. Also has the f1,f2 and another pair. The genhead plate specifies 120/240 @doble delta. There is hope.

    Will do once i get back to the yard tommorow.

    Mep-1050, mep-1051, 4-1050, 4-1051

    Yes I completely understand and will double check. 10 wires has been the norm for all 804ab and larger units from that series. I assumed it was the same for the ammps series but you know what they say about assumptions. Will report back.

    Mep-1050, mep-1051, 4-1050, 4-1051

    I just got 2 of these units in and its the first time i have seen one. I am impressed with the room available on these to perform repairs or even disassemble. One of the units has 11k hours on it and zero blowby. One thing I noticed was the genhead looks really similar to the 803a but its too...

    Stuck Fan Clutch

    Ok, I managed to align the holes and see the allen heads. Tried my best to get them lose by hand but would not budge. Im going to buy a small mechanics hammer drill and try again tommorow. Btw, are the screws left hand thread?
