  • Page 22: Section 3: Trouble Shooting Guide

    SECTION 3: TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE The Raider 10,000 Pro K is an asynchronous (brush-less) style generator. The basic theory of this style generator is as follows: A permanent magnet (rotor) is rotating at a high speed inside a winding wrapped around a laminated steel core (stator). This produces a small voltage at a very low intensity, 1 to 2 volts at 1 amp in the exciter windings.
  • Page 23: There Is No Auxiliary Voltage And/Or Welding Current

    3.01 There is No Auxiliary Voltage and/or Welding Current In examining this particular fault it must be remembered that an asynchronous generator with excitation by capacitors has the characteristic of becoming automatically de-energized while it is functioning (no longer supplies current). Also an asynchronous generator will not self-excite when it is started up if there is a short-circuit whether outside of the generator (in the user circuit) or inside it (in the windings and in the control equipment).
