Generator

The CS-144 generator is electrically similar to earlier models. The generator feature the following major components:
- The delta stator
- The rectifier bridge
- The rotor with slip rings and brushes
- A conventional pulley
- A fan
- The regulator

The pulley and the fan cool the slip ring and the frame.

The CS stands for charging system; the 144 denotes the outside diameter, in millimeters, or the stator laminations. The CS-144 is rated at 124 amperes. The CS-144 features permanently lubricated bearings. Service should only include tightening of mount components. Otherwise, replace the generator as a complete unit.
