Section 1.3- OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS

Operational Description (Continued)

a. The circuit board senses actual voltage and b. The CCG board <

"compares“ it to a pre-set “reference“ voltage of

about 115-120 volts AC.

0) If voltage Is low, the board will signal a STEPPER

MOTOR to change engine throttle setting and In­

crease speed until the desired voltage level Is

reached.

If voltage goes high, the board will signal the

STEPPER MOTOR to reduce engine throttle setting

until the desired voltage level Is obtained.

(3) Engine speed Is variable and Is used to control

output voltage and may range from about 2520 to

4050 rpm.

controls AC frequency by

acting on the GENISTOR.

(1) The GENISTOR is a high speed switching
device.
(2) The CCG board signals the Genistor to switch

generator waveforms on and off at the proper

times. In order to maintain a frequency In the

55-65 Hertz band.

8.

The CCG circuit board can protect the system

against some faults by shutting the engine down,
wire 18B is the “engine shutdown“ lead that con-

nectcts this system to the Engine Controller circuit
board. See “FAULT PROTECTION“, Page 1.2-4.
