Generator

The Saturn CS130 96 amp generator is a lightweight, high-performance machine that supplies electrical power for charging the battery and operating the accessories while the engine is running.

The generator is constructed essentially of a rotor mounted on bearings in two end frames, a stator assembly, six silicone diodes, an internally mounted voltage regulator, and an integral mounted shield. The generator develops AC voltages which are converted to DC current by means of a rectifier circuit.
