Generators / Re: Regulated output generator
« on: December 04, 2008, 04:41:35 AM »
its nice to see everone getting excited about this issue of keeping stable voltage and frequency, i dont have any experience with the listeroid engines or the st gen heads, but i do have some experience with real litser engines and real (vintage) generators.
the st heads from what i gather come in 2 variations 1800 and 3600 rpm for 60 hz, 2 pole gen for 3600 and 4 pole for 1800, there is no mention of a 6 pole generator that runs at 1200 rpm for 60 hz. and using a real dc exciter not the "brushless" style excitation, much easier to regulate.
What i would like to know is how well did the original cs listers start-o-matic sets maintain voltage and hz.
My lister jp 18/2 running at 1200 rpm directly coupled to a 1940's kato-lite gen head maintains voltage withing 1 volt and frequency +/- .5 hz  with 50 amp 240 volt load applied  , its 15kw  130 amp 120 volt, 65 amp 240 volt with 1950's regohm electromechanical regulator, i have to hook up a scope and check the sign wave for my own ammusement, bulbs dont flicker with this unit.

its a shame so many good generators  and real engines got sold to scrap dealers and turned into chinese crap

Engines / Re: Fuel lift pump

is your lift pump made by the AC company?
if so the kit is still serviced if you check with a perkins dealer, the 372 cubic inch non turbo engine used in the massey ferguson 750 combine.
this kit fit my sr1, not sure if they used different pumps on these sr engines.

that seems a tad dangerous, i was waiting to see the flywheels burst from over rpm, and whats with all the people running those engines without a cooling system? It seems universally stupid.

Well someone is sure full of himself, you think your the only one in the world with lister information? Your not the Lister god.No one here has asked me to remove the information.
If your not willing to share it then why bother having a web page with it available. Go cry in your cerial , maybe change your diaper and have a nap, you might feel better.
My goal was to share some pictures and information about my lister project, and all it has done is made everyone a bunch of childern that wont share. Its too bad you are so petty about this situation.

First off i thought this forum was for the exchange of ideas and chatter about lister engines, i guess i was wrong, seems like not a very friendly group here. I certainly did not think this would become such a hot topic, the pages of information i downloaded over 3 years ago .
I do have the original manuals with all the same information. As far as the lister company is concerned this is all these old engines are obselete and they no longer hold any information on them, the lister company is no longer for it has become lister petter.
If by chance those scans are from peter i do thank him they are nicely done and i did not mean to offend anyone, i just thought they went together well with the pictures. I was also not contacted to remove the pictures, email is listed or a message could have been left on the page.
My slow response is due to working a day job, time differences as i am in Canada, and not always having access to a computer to sit and gossip like a school girl about something this trivial.

thank you.

the data sheets i found online, and i found 3 or 4 manuals on ebay, all the information has been very helpful.
