The installation is a standard alternator circuit providing a nominal 14 volts for aircraft with 12 volt battery systems. The following parts would be required: Alternator Voltage regulator 60 amp ammeter Voltmeter (panel-mounted). Our STC lists a combination gauge that allows a constant ammeter/voltmeter readout. (Not required for Cessna 120/140/140A). circuit breakers noise filter other minor parts for alternator drive and blast tube assembly We provide the Supplemental Type Certificate, full instructions and schematics, and a list of suppliers for parts. We do not provide parts for Aircoupe or Cessna 170. However, we do stock the VR600A voltage regulator for the Cessna 120/140/140A. As of this date we are the only supplier for that part. A rough estimate of parts cost is $800 to $1000. Aircoupe and Cessna 170 owners: to order, please send a check or money order for $85.00 and include aircraft type, registration number and serial number. Cessna 120/140/140A owners: to order, please send a check or money order for $204.00. This cost covers STC, voltage regulator, and shipping. In addition, I will need your aircraft type, registration number and serial number. I am certain that you will be pleased with the dependability and performance of this installation. It is one that has been used for many years, and continues to be quite popular in small aircraft. If you have any further questions, please call us.

I am researching the possibility of replacing it with a newer 50 amp generator or alternator. Has anyone in tech had any experience with this modification? If so, any suggestions on which type to use and where to obtain them? Is an STC necessary? Possibly a 337 or field approval? Any copies floating around? Thanks. Fred You keep typing, we keep giving.
