                  Description

                  Balmar Alternators are designed for recreational marine applications and are engineered to replace most OEM alternators on a wide variety of marine gasoline and diesel engines. These alternators deliver high-output performance in a compact, small-case package and are available in common mounting configurations.

                  Features:

                  • Designed for recreational marine applications
                  • Ideal for modest charging upgrades
                  • Dual fan cooling
                  • Single foot mount
                  • High airflow frame
                  • Maximum RPM: 12,000
                  • Recommended for use with Balmar multi-stage voltage regulators (Sold with alternators in kits or separately)
                  • Engineered to replace most OEM alternators on a wide variety of marine gasoline and diesel engines
                  • Utilizes Balmar's patented Smart Ready® Technology
                    • Internal Regulation is a feature unique to the 6-Series alternator
                    • Enables the alternator to be used with smart Balmar external regulation, or as a stand-alone, internally regulated alternator system
                    • Fixed, 14.1-volt charge controller is ideal as a built-in back-up regulator for the cruiser, or as a full-time regulator for systems where smart, multi-stage regulation is not required
                    • If battery loads are relatively small and your engine is running frequently, the alternator's internal regulator may be sufficient to support your electrical needs without external regulation
                    • If your vessel utilizes larger deep-cycle battery banks or the engine's duty cycle is less frequent (as is the case in most sailing applications), the 6-Series Alternator combines and works seamlessly with Balmar's ARS-5Vage Regulator or Max Charge Voltage Regulator
                  • USCG Title 33, ISO, SAE and CE Compliant

                  Pulley Designations:

                  • "SV" = 1/2" Single Pulley
                  • "DV" = 1/2" Dual Vee
                  • "K6" = K-6 Serpentine
                  • "J10" = J-10 AltMount® Serpentine

                  The selection process includes the following steps:

                  • Step 1: Determine your vessel's electrical load
                  • Step 2: Identify your existing battery bank technology and capacity
                  • Step 3: Select your optimum alternator output
                  • Step 4: Identify the alternator mounting style present on your engine
                  • Step 5: Determine your belt and pulley requirements
                  • Step 6: Select additional charging system options

                  Note: Balmar's 1/2" Deep Vee Pulleys (single and dual) can accept a 3/8" and 7/16" belts.

                  Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Instructions I really appreciate that the Balmar company has gone to great lengths to make it easy for a non-professional to install the unit. There is ample signage on the unit itself, and the instructions are clear and thorough. Another brand I had purchased previously to save some $ had no instructions, assuming the installer was experienced. I also appreciated that the unit came ready for external regulation.
