I tried to get more information on the "syntergy" process. I know of no
electrical design of the alternator that allow a non distorted change in
frequency of the output, However a method of load sensing and a planetary
transmission with speed selection could do the job of letting the motor run
slower while the alternator is at constant speed. The 5-12 minute load sensing
could be the process of the speed selection so that no load is affected. Hummm
interesting.
I have a 35 KW diesel Generac and never looked back. It uses the old governor
method of adjusting engineer fuel/RPM to load. Less load less fuel used. OH
well.

Subject: [Elecraft] OT: Whole House Generator
If you want to respond to this, please respond privately to me and NOT the list.
I am going through the process of choosing a whole house home generator and
what caught my ey in the process was a new generator by GENERAC called
"Syntergy" which uses a new three-vein generator and produces a relatively
clean sine wave. So clean, GENERAC claims less than 1% harmonic distortion, a
level virtually undetectable to the user.
Has anyone studied this unit and made any conclusions about it? Their standard
unit produces a minimum of 10% harmonic distortion and they warn some
communications services might become unuseable.
Again, respond to me privately: << w5jv @ hotmail.com >>.
Thank you,
Doug W5JV
