Hughes" To: "Rotary motors in aircraft" Marc, I spoke with them a few months back. One neat thing I found out is you can put two alternators on one pump to double the current. What is the maximum flow rate of a standard 13B pump?=20 Bobby Hughes =20 -----Original Message----- From: Rotary motors in aircraft [mailto:flyrotary@lancaironline.net] On Behalf Of Marc Wiese Sent: Thursday, January 20, 2005 6:10 PM To: Rotary motors in aircraft Subject: [FlyRotary] Racemate pump/alternator perhaps a viable option? > Hum, > Racemate makes a water pump mounted alternator. We need one that has that and is a better fit for the low profile rotary. I'll talk to him. He's busy, but.....if there is a market ? There is your second power source.=20 They have several models-big to bigger, lots for American racing engines, please go to their website and take a look. GPM-NO PROBLEM. One is even a remote pump. Also, I have investigated Racemate's propensity to undertake new designs and they indicate that if there is a suitable market (#?) they would make casting and make a new housing/alt for the rotary. However they are so busy they are in the throes of moving to a much larger facility. www.racemate.com (following lifted from alternator page) The entire Racemate is incorporated on the front of the water pump and produces 15 amps, (also available with 22 or 32 amps). Racemate will maintain peak battery levels for maximum starting power. Racemate is compatible with all high energy ignition systems The Racemate Alternator is the first important charging system advancement since the introduction of the alternator. The Racemate Alternator system is a unique, compact water pump/alternator combination assembly.
