engine. This engine is designed to
meet every performance requirement for the generator.
Reference Table 1, page13 for engine specifications.
In keeping with Multiquip's policy of constantly improving
its products, the specifications quoted herein are subject to
change without prior notice.
The basic controls and indicators for the DCA-60SSI2
generator are addressed on the following pages.
Mechanical Governor System
The mechanical governor system control the RPM of the
engine. When the engine demands increase or decrease,
the mechanical governor system regulates the frequency
variation to ±1.5%. The electronic governor option in-
creases frequency variation to ±.25%.
Open Delta Excitation System
The DCA-60SSI2 generator is equipped with the state of

system consist of an electrically independent winding wound
among stationary windings of the AC output section.
There are four leads: A, B, C and D. During light loads, the

(AVR) is supplied
from the leads parallel connections of B&C. When loads
increase, the AVR switches and accepts power from leads
A&D. The output of leads A&D increase proportionally with
load. This of adding the voltages to each phase provides
better voltage response during heavy loads.
The connections of the AVR to the AC output windings are
for sensing only. No power is required from these windings.
The open-delta design provides virtually unlimited excitation
current, offering maximum motor starting capabilities. The
