To accompany the previous two posts about hydraulic generators & their components, here is the actual generator unit itself.
Rated at 8.5kVa 230v AC, this will providea mains supply while the narrowboat is away from her home mooring.
This unit will be attached to the side of the hull in the engine room on rubber vibration isolation mounts, behind the main hydraulic oil tank & is driven from the small gear pump attached to the back of the main propulsion hydraulic pump unit.
Operating pressure is 175 bar, 21L/m flow rate to achieve the 3,000RPM rotor speed for 50Hz mains frequency.
