    You betcha! I am very impressed with the B&C SK35 with the LS1A regulator. I have installed that model in a few aircraft, the latest being a Sukhoi 26. If anyone needs help doing that, email me. Oh, yes B&C also makes a higher current alternator if you want that. I believe it is the SK50. Cost is about $1000 plus or minus.

    Rob, I think his voltage measurements were at the generator and not the main bus. Don't know that for sure, but I think so. This would make 15 volts at idle pretty normal. (The DMR-200 would open and you would be reading straight generator voltage) If the main contactor was indeed fused closed, when the engine stopped, it should blow the main battery fuse, because at that point the "motor" would not be spinning and would represent a dead short to ground, or darn close to it. Agreed? Mark p.s. No I do not have 55 schematics, just a few pictures. However, all of these are usually identical... mostly. Well 95% anyway. :-) -----Original Message----- From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Rob Rowe Sent: Monday, June 04, 2012 1:31 PM Subject: Yak-List: Re: Yak 55M Voltage regulator Overvoltage? Hi Mark, Don't have -55M electrical schematics (if you do then please post) but Russian -55M pilot's manual references same components as those found in other Yaks ... so will ASSUME we're dealing with essentially the same beast here. On that basis ... the AKKyM is likely to be a switch (up battery, middle off, down ext power?) not a breaker. Please confirm, if not then post an image of your panel showing its location. Or are you referring to the OV protection box "A3N-A2" reset button? The problem you're describing could be explained by the Contactor having failed with its contacts welded together, so although various safety devices may be kicking in the battery & generator remain connected regardless. This may explain why, with the "breaker" out, the voltage still varies with rpm ... the voltmeter is on the battery bus, if it really was disconnected from the generator it should not fluctuate. Hence at low rpm the generator becomes a motor drawing a very large current dragging your battery volts down to 15V (should be ~24V if offline). Simple way to check this (engine OFF) is just turn the Battery master ON & if the Generator Offline warning light remains OFF and/or the ammeter shows a large drain current, then we've ID'd the problem (or at least one of them). However this does not necessarily explain why your voltage regulation is not limiting the generator output to 27~28V. I suspect there's another problem here which could range from a bad connection or blown fuse (why?) through carbon pile regulator / stabilising transformer / OV control failure. If I'm right then at best this is going to need the DMR-200D (aptly named Complex Control device that contains the Contactor) overhauled / replaced which may not be feasible on either count. At worst ANO hard to repair / replace component has also failed ... so ultimately your best bet may be to get this one modified to a B&C fit too. Anyway if you could try out the above check we can see if I'm even in the right ball park on this one.

It is intended to open when current starts to flow from bus to generator armature rather than the other way around.

    Subject: Generator splined gear drive
    From: "Roger Kemp M.D." <viperdoc@mindspring.com>
    Looking at the picture: 1200 is a oil channel. Deep to that is the drive sha ft for the generator. To see the drive for the generator You need to flip th e accessory case over and pull the inspection plate. At 1000 & 0200 are the g ears for the mags. At 0700 is the drive for the compressor. At 0600 is the d rive shaft for the oil pump & the fuel pump. At 0500 is the drive for the ai r start octopus. If memory serves correct. Doc Sent from my iPad <pre><b><font size=2 color="#000000" face="courier new,courier"> </b></font></pre></body></html>

    Correction, on the first photo, the 0500 in the fore ground is the tach drive shaft. Behind that is the air start drive deep to the the tach drive. Sorry, Doc Sent from my iPad

With the differential shunt (reverse current) relay needing 10-25 Amps (from spec) to operate anyway then a corroded / loose connection could readily add a few ohms and prevent the contactor release from even being triggered. Have just noted the -55M doesn't have an ammeter as standard fit, so scratch that check option. Anyway let's see what Mark S come back with, if nothing else it will at least help eliminate this from the potential fault list [Wink] Cheers, Rob R Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=374812#374812
