Product Description:

The DA36A-900A is an electric generator manufactured by Pacific Scientific for the Redi-Line Electric Generators series. Designed as a compact rotary inverter, it converts battery power into steady AC output so remote conveyors, lighting circuits, or test stands can operate without a direct connection to the electrical grid. In industrial automation, it provides an interface between DC storage systems and AC devices that require a stable sinusoidal power source, permitting equipment to operate at sites without utility service.

During continuous duty, the machine delivers 900 W, which is the sustained load it can carry without excessive temperature rise. The input accommodates a battery string rated at 36 VDC, while the output maintains 120 VAC with less than five percent regulation under nominal conditions. An internal governor maintains the shaft speed so the line frequency remains at 60 Hz. For inrush loads such as motor starts, the alternator tolerates a momentary draw of 1350 W and supports a surge current of 12 A, helping prevent nuisance trips. Power is delivered through a sine waveform, minimizing harmonic distortion that could overheat transformers or interfere with sensitive electronics. The regulated output is suitable for AC equipment that may not operate correctly from a basic square-wave inverter.

For integration with sealed lead-acid or lithium battery packs, the generator uses a nominal operating input of 37.8 VDC, providing headroom above the 36 V system rating for stable regulation. Under this condition, it draws a continuous armature current of 8.2 A, which can be used to determine suitable conductor and fuse capacities. The housing measures 16.25 inches long, 5.18 inches in diameter, and 5.5 inches high. The generator weighs 26 lb, supporting installation in confined enclosures or vehicle compartments. Its compact cylindrical housing still requires sufficient clearance for ventilation, wiring, mounting hardware, and vibration isolators.
