Electrical and mechanical data
LSA 44.3 Dedicated single phase - 57 to 82 kVA - 50 Hz / 80 to 125 kVA - 60 Hz

Specially adapted to applications

The LSA 44.3 single-dedicated alternator is a machine with a dedicated single-phase winding. It has 10 to 40% more power than an
equivalent three-phase alternator connected with the same single-phase voltage.

Compliant with international standards

The LSA 44.3 alternator conforms to the main international standards and regulations:
- IEC 60034, NEMA MG 1.32-33, ISO 8528-3, CSA / UL 1146 (UL 1004 on request), marine regulations, etc.
It can be integrated into a CE marked generator.
The LSA 44.3 is designed, manufactured and marketed in an ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 environment.

Top of the range electrical performance

● Class H insulation
● Standard 4-wire re-connectable
● Dedicated single phase windings, type M or M1, (optimised for frequency 60Hz, voltage 240V and P.F. = 1)
(P.F. = 1 corresponds to general use for single phase voltage - 15% derating for use at PF = 0.8)
● 4 lead stator allowing the reconnections bellow:
- 50 Hz : 230 V in series
- 60 Hz : 240 V in series
● R 791 interference suppression conforming to standard EN 55011 group 1 class B standard for European zone (CE marking)

Reinforced mechanical structure using finite element modelling

● Compact rigid assembly to better withstand generator vibrations
● Steel frame
● Aluminium flanges and shields
● Two-bearing and single-bearing versions designed to be suitable for commercially-available heat engines
● Half-key balancing two bearing
● Permanently greased bearings (20 000h)
● Direction of rotation : clockwise and anti-clockwise (without derating)
