How powerful is the Suzuki GS generator? I would need the regulators for an early GS850G, an early 80's GS550, and a 70's GS750. What kind of current should it be rated for?
Here is a .pdf from their site. Various regulators are listed, and also a schematic on the bottom of the first page:
I am not particularly familiar with electronics, but I figure it needs to be a 3-phase regulator.
For generators that do over 8000RPM, they only have three listed, and this one would probably be the one to use:
3 phase,
current 30A
price 92€
for 420W generators
dissipation 80W
K/W 1,2
temperature at no wind speed:+96K
Dimensions: 88mm width, 141mm length, 25mm height
Warranty 4 years for this model.
It even has it's own site:
Says it automatically shuts off when temperature exceeds 70°C, and a LED light goes on when something is wrong (I don't understand Croatian that well... perhaps when the generator would generate too much energy). There is even a "Suzuki GS8550E 1983" listed as a model it can be used on, and they probably meant the GS850. There's also a "Ducati Monster 520" - yeah, riiight.
Would this be okay to use on a GS? The warranty seems fairly long to me. Also, 10% discount if you order more than one. I guess it is a small Croatian firm, a left-over from Yugoslavia (as so many other factories in this area). If I were to go there and order a bunch of them, I'd probably get an even better discount. Hopefully, it is also made a bit more robust - a small company that would make ****ty regulators couldn't exist for a long time.
