    Fermont MEP-804A output

    Yes it can be DONE ! But only as you have stated on the 004-7 series. And NOT any of the 804 up series. I have tried to talk with this person as he also advertises on ebay this same magic, he becomes evasive and non committal closing each exchange that it can be done.. well sure but at what...

    Thanx Guy, we're getting further into this dog and the backplane where you have located the Batt for me.. This is an older or near if not first CIM release, all monochrome ..odd how many functions go sideways when we loose battery support. Im pulling the CIM and going to review as much as we...

    MEP-805B 30kw wont stay running

    155mm I have tried these good suggestions to no avail, today 10/4/19 I did set up a new outboard GAC speed controller and the set ran near perfect, course only about half the CIM controls worked, but all the operating indicators did work well, in this process I did use a load bank and the set...

    MEP-805B 30kw wont stay running

    Update. I feel like I have exhausted my technical ability here to sort out this set and its fault conditions and make it a running functional set. We as a SS community just don't have enough of these in our membership for enough of us to develop trouble shooting experience yet, As the MEP-1000...

    MEP 804A lots of issues.

    Chesauto a bit more on the relationship between the MPU and its output voltage, on the speed controller you have several places for multiple adjustments, SPEED is one another is GAIN and might have another STABILITY or such.. when adjusted properly your engine should run very smooth, but to set...

    MEP 804A lots of issues.

    Easy MPU set up is as follows. Line up the flywheel where a tooth is directly or as best you can, directly, in the center of the hole where the MPU is threaded into. With the MPU removed be sure it is as clean of small filings and anything metallic, thread it into the hole and for reference...

    MEP803 Newbie, need advice

    Yes these 802/3 sets are a pain to fill with the extream slant fill neck .... I took a radiator cap and punched a hole center mass in the actual cap after I had removed all the seal and springs and rubber gasket. then installed a 1/2" PVC fitting with a larger clear hose over the OD of the...

    Another MEP-802 standby generator thread

    Thank you Chainbreaker, this is precisely the discussion I was trying to promote, wherein the set is operating as a stand alone operation or as a supply source to a remote location. These operational settings/locations are very different and need to be treated as such. We can't just make a stand...

    Another MEP-802 standby generator thread

    MEP 804A questions

    Remember please, on this unit there is an INTERIOR voltage decision that has to be made as well the link board, when I say interior, I am directing you to the control box settings inside/behind the fold down front display panel, this ALSO has to be set to the higher range voltage for everything...

    Mep-805a- 30kw generator

    also ? DOESN'T THIS SERIES HAVE THE overspeed RESET LOLCATED ON OR WITHIN THE INTERIOR OF THE CONTROL BOX NEXT TO THE 50/60 SELECTOR SWITCH.. DONT THINK JUST PUSHING THE TESTLAMP RESET BUTTON ON THE INDICATOR PANEL ON THE FRONT PANEL WILL ACTUALLY RESET THE OVERSPEED CONDITION.. LET US KNO MAC/MC

Both set up and sent...

    MEP 805A in Texas little bit of HELP

    Well crap, I fell into the same trap Guyfang did, thinking 805 and not 005.. disregard every single thing I said except running the engine on EITHER, that still holds.. I am so sorry to try and take us all down the 805 rabbit trail, my sincere apology.. mac/mc

    MEP 805A in Texas little bit of HELP

    you state you're getting 16vdc on P80N, but what are you seeing at the actual IP terminals ? 16vdc should provide enuff to actually make the flow rate from the fuel rack controlled by the actuator to actually start the set. The actual voltage that is applied to the IP varies near constantly...

    Electric connector nomenclature

    I think Suprman is near spot on, this looks like a parallel purpose connector used to connect 2 sets into dual/combined output, I do have these, but better news is I seriously doubt u need or would ever use this feature. And yes the smaller 3 pin female is most typically used to help...
