SAL12-70C HARTZELL GENERATOR CONVERSION KIT

January 10, 2024

I ordered this on a Tuesday and it arrived on Wednesday. The kit is nice and installation was easy. The bad part was that the regulator was defective from the factory. Plane power was helpful and shipped one out overnight air and I got it the next day. This still required a 150 mile roundtrip for me to install it again, and an extra hour of my A&Ps time to get it running. After that it seems to be working. I hope the new regulator hold up.

Installed this in a 1957 172 with O300 that had a generator. I like to fly at night and taxiing with all the lights and strobes running, near idle, will drain your battery in a blink of an eye. Bought this kit for around $800 when my antique $400 regulator died. It was either spend $400 to get back to square 1, or spend $800 and get brand new technology. A&P and I installed together. Installation was pretty easy. Access was easier than any car alternator Ive done. Hardest part was knocking a stubborn, but required bushing off the generator shaft, that was needed for the alt shaft. Plenty of instructions and diagrams, made wiring easy. Included regulator is light-years ahead of what it replaced. Did need to buy a few separate parts for this. I forget what, but its listed in the online install instructions. Youll need wire and circuit breakers, too. Spruce had everything in stock. Alternator comes alive around 600-700 rpm, much better than the gen at well over 1000 rpm. Voltage is rock solid in flight or on the ground, with literally everything running. Voltage adjustment is super easy. Weight savings was over 6 lbs. I did put an alternator noise filter on it, thinking it would reduce some static I hear at idle. I think it ended up being in the intercom, though.

Best conversion for my N35 bonanza with IO 470. Removed the old conversion that continued to show me signes older technologys proove why we need innovations in Gereral aviation. Install took 2 hours, due to, I change all the wiring. (Would have been less than 1 hour). 1 issue was the center thru bolt clearance on the engine bracket. Had to grind 0.080 slot adjacent to bolt head to allow bolt rotation for tightening this bolt. (Very minor blending though) . Alternator performance is excellent. Voltage regulator is simple and had spot on voltage, extremely stable. I should of installed this conversion a long time ago.

The kit is as advertised. All you need. The pulley is narrower than stock and the belt rides high with a stock 31.19 Continental belt. This is my only concern.

Im in the process of installing on my PA-20 and Ive run into two issues so far: 1) Some of the parts didnt fit and needed adjustment to work. Specifically, the aluminum spacer (PN 10-1009) wouldnt fit in the alternators housing. I suspect that there was too much pressure from the tailstock when this part was turned on a lathe, which caused the end to flair out. It was bad enough that I had to chuck it in my own lathe to fix it. It was an easy fix for me, but would have been frustrating without a lathe. Regardless, I shouldnt have to fix ANYTHING if Im spending $1500 for this product. 2) The kit included ring terminals but they are too small to fit the studs on the alternator. It looks like the ring terminals are for #6 screws but the terminals on the alternator look to be #8. I am frustrated that I have to put the install on hold until the correct terminals arrive in the mail. For $1500, Id expect that the manufacturer would kit the correct components to complete the install.

Q: Do these kits use the existing belt from the generator or does it need another size?

Per the supplier, the existing belt can be used.

Q: Regarding Plane Power Generator to Alternator Kits: Do these come with a belt or do you use the current belt?

Per the supplier, customer will use their current belt.

Q: Does the SAL 12-70 kit come with all necessary STC paperwork?

Yes, the STC paperwork is included in the box.

Q: I have a SAL12-70C kit alredy installed and i need a spare replacement alternator ( not a complete kit but only the item Part No. 10-1050C as listed in the STC). Can you supply only the alternator?

Yes, we offer it as part number 07-17758 ( HARTZELL PLANE POWER ALTERNATOR ONLY 10-1050C ).

Q: What circuit breakers are required with the SAL12-70C?

Per supplier: If original output circuit breaker is rated at less than 70-amps and you wish to be able to utilize the increased capacity of the alternator, remove the breaker and replace with suitable breaker up to 70amp maximum size. Ensure wire size from alternator output terminal to output circuit breaker and from output circuit breaker to bus is rated for more than the size of breaker installed per AC43.13-1B.

Note: If aircraft has been equipped with an Amp Meter, ensure that it is of adequate size to handle the increased output capability before increasing the output wire and breaker

We do not supply circuit breakers in the kits.

If he has a lower amp rated breaker currently installed, he can continue to use it but alternator output will be limited to the amp rating of that breaker.

Q: Would I be correct to assume that the SAL12-70 kit would be used to replace an Inter Av alternator using the Inter Av alternator Bracket for a Lycoming engine. Thank you.

No, the SAL12-70 kit would replace the InterAv kit including the brackets and hardware. Be just like starting over and assuming the generator was still installed.

Q: Does ER14-50 comes with STC paperwork included in the box?

Yes it is included as well as it is available on the manufactures website.

Q: Is my generator considered a adequate core for exchange or do you only accept alternators?

Hartzell will accept that as a core as long as the data plate can be read.
