FOR RUGGED DRILLING APPLICATIONS ‘Whether on land or at sea, you need to rely on a drill rig alternator that will stand up to severe application requirements... . an alternator that has proved itself year in and year out in thousands of drilling locations through- ‘ut the world. Kato has a proven track record, and currently has units supplying electrical power in'more than one-third of the active dril rigs in the world today. Kato’s 600 VAC “Kato Rig Power" alternators are built for the world ol driling market. Units are built to couple with diesel engine drives, and meet or exceed the load characteristics and the electrical and mechanical requirements of marine and land oil well drilling applications, ‘The "Kato Rig Power” package, comprised of stator, rotor and exciter is designed to withstand salt air atmospheres, high humidity, and moderate shock and vibrations. C DESIGNED FOR LAND AND OFF SHORE OIL DRILLING Dependable driling rig power begins by treating all coordination with the other components to form a package ‘components as a whole. Each component is designed, that operates with efficiency and reliability. Kato engineers ‘evaluated, coordinated, and applied so that it operates not have successfully planned and designed systems for ‘only at its top performance, but so that it will work In virtually every type of drilling rig f ALTERNATOR SPECIFICATIONS TYPE FOR SCR USE RATING 400 - 1500 KW d VOLTAGE 600 VAC fl POWER FACTOR 07 POLES & HERTZ, .4 & 6 POLE, 60 & 60 Hz | el SPEED 1800 or 1200 APM bbb bbb obs 7 DUTY CYCLE CONTINUOUS: TEMPERATURE RISE......60 degree C. ie tee INSULATION CLASS F ee Other products available cece ee we upon request (1 6000 KW) Fa ase Pours : ( * eet ALTERNATORS FEATURES... DESIGNED FOR ENDURANCE Excitation: The Kato brushless exciter system is an optimum power ‘source with fewer components and greater relabilty. It minimizes voltage dip and provides rapid recovery time following sudden appliad loads, ‘The brushless exciter is also designed for ease of maintenance. The DC. field leads are easily disconnected from the rotating rectifier assembly for insulation resistance test to measure and evaluate the conditions of the field windings after prolonged usage. Class F Insulation: The use of Class F insulation is standard on all alternators, Kato stators and rotors are assembled with rectangular ‘magnetic wire, a polyester varnish, two layers of dacron glass tape, then processed through Kato's vacuum pressure impregnation process in 400% solids semi-tigid epoxy. This quality insulation system assures long life and reliable operation of your alternator. Kato alternators do not require scheduled overspraying insulation after continuous ‘operations. Standoff Terminal Connectors: The Kato Rig Power alternator has lead separation box with bus bar standoff kits, for easy connection or “isconnection of the load leads enabling the operators to easily evaluate ae conditions of the windings by measuring (megging) the insulation resistance. Bullt to Standards: All SCR alternators can be built to meet marine regulatory body requirements such as IEC, EN (European Std), BS, IEEE, NEMA and can be certified to Lloyd's, DNV, and BASEEFA (U.K). Important Features Include: * Class F humidity resistant form wound coils (vacuum pressure impregnated). + Open dripproot enclosures with non-corrosive hardware. (Totally enclosed fan cooled, totally enclosed air heat exchanger cooled, water heat exchanger cooled, filtered—Optional,) + Special filtering for desert applications available. (Optional) + Standoff terminal connectors for easy load lead connection. * Conduit Box — oversized and full accessabilty. Can be mounted on left or right side + Two bearing design. + Brushless exciter directly connected with 1000 volt Pl. surge suppressor. * Diode fallure detection module. (Optional) * Nine stator temperature detectors. Three for spare. + Flexible engine foot mountings. « Space heaters — protect against condensation. + Permanent magnet generators.

IT INSURES PERFORMANCE ‘The VPI insulation process is to be considered our most critical phase of manufacturing ast insures vold free windings. The 100% solids epaxy resin used inthe process isthe key ingredient that allows Kato to achieve total Class F ratings ‘on al slettcal windings. “Two typas of epoxy resins are used for the Kato Rig Power alternators. A 100% sem: rigid epoty Is used for the stator windings. The flexible epoxy allows movement for the end winding without ceaoking during short circut conditions which are always ‘associated with fring the SCR’s, The rigid epoxy system used forthe rotor insures high bond strength between wires and uniform coll movement caused by centrifugal and thermal expansion forces. ‘Over twenty years of experience has shown that an epoxy based system is superior to polyester based varnishes for protection against moisture, salt, and most other ‘enuronmental contaminants. Kato alternators donot require periodic epory based over- ‘oat applications to protect windings against these environmental elements. Singent quality assurance tets ofthe epexies and sophistcatad methods of controling the vacuum and pressure cycles during the VPI process assures the Kato tradition of consistent high quality products fr longterm reliable service and customer satistaction, SERVICE & MAINTENANCE Kato knows how important i for you to keep your rg operating at full capacity.
