DESCRIPTION/OPERATION.
WARNING
Severe equipment damage will always result and personal injury
can occur if the wrong voltage regulator is used.
Always disconnect the batteries' ground cable(s) before removing
or connecting cables to the regulator to avoid personal injury or
equipment damage from the high amperage supplied by the
batteries.
CAUTION
The 100-amp voltage regulator, NSN: 2920-00-900-7993 is presently
used in the M113A2 FOV. Late models M577A2s and M1068s have
200-amp voltage regulator, NSN: 2920-01-147-1574. Do not make
connections to the 200-amp regulator if the engine is equipped
with 100-amp generator.
The 200-amp voltage regulator, NSN: 2920-01-174-1574 is used in
all M113A3/M548A3 FOVs. Do not make connections to the 100-
amp regulator if the engine is equipped with a 200-amp
Pin C of the regulator connector is the positive battery lead on
the 200-amp regulator and pin C on the 100-amp regulator is the
negative battery lead. Ensure that you have the right regulator
for the application. If the regulator is not identified, do not use it.
Using the wrong regulator will damage the alternator, engine
wiring harness, the powerplant test stand's wiring harness, and
powerplant test stand's regulator.
