    MEP 804A RETAPPING

    That is one of the articles. I shared the conversion with Peter who owns Innovahightech because he was very confident that it could NOT be done. He contacted electrical engineers with Marthon and explained the conversion, to his surprise they confirmed the ability with my drawings. Rated output...

    MEP 804A RETAPPING

    Let me see if I can find it. It wasn't a thread I started. The idea came from SmokeStak where an individual talked about a Bar Diamond connection. Worked on the theory with some other guys and it worked. The only set back we had was the VR. The original VR reads off all 3 legs to generate...

    Yes Ive done it. Ive discussed it in the past. Its very simple. On my next conversion I will take pictures. Ive switched over around 20 804 and 805a's.

    35kw Get only putting 50 volts

    Make sure your connections are tight on the vr. I just had a unit with a similar problem and after wiggling wires that connect to the vr it would produce correct voltage when i held them in the perfect position. Took the vr off and checked the connectors and one was about to fall off the wire...

    35kw Get only putting 50 volts

    The voltage regulator is on the back wall behind the gauges. Look in and its to the left. Its a marathon 350. You can buy an aftermarket on ebay fairly cheap.

    Parts for mep-804a

    Very cool, never seen one made by them. The Woodward looks exactly the same. Kurt Klopp is in the process of making a new governor control. It maybe some time before its ready but atleast we will have an alternative.

    MEP-804A turns over but won't start (governor module?)

    Have you asked Kloppk if you could send in your board for diagnosising? He maybe be able to fix it. No guarantees but worth a try

    MEP-804B no output

    You're doing great. To adjust the set point for overspeed, look at the blue box on the back wall inside the control cubicle (behind gauges). At the top center you will see several adjustment pots. Look to the right and it says Overspeed, take a small flat head and turn it 90 degrees clockwise...

    7.5 Breaker tripping (MEP-004)

    Unplug the fuel pumps first and try to start. See if it pops after they are unplugged.

    mep 005a run ten sec then quit changed transducer

    My theory is that its there to keep the return lines from back flowing into the pump which would help with priming. Removal has never affected the priming of any of my units. Even sitting for a few months I can go straight to start and starts up perfect.

    mep 005a run ten sec then quit changed transducer

    I always take a small brass punch and bust the glass ball to remove it completely. Its not needed. It will continue to give you problems because it will stick.

    mep-802a fuel level sender float

    I just used a 9" long float in a 803a. From the bottom of the tank to the top of the flange is 10". 9" gives 1 inch level on the bottom. Works good

    7.5 Breaker tripping (MEP-004)

    When does cb1 trip? Turn the master switch run, turn the battle short on, does it trip? If so the fuel pumps have capacitors that short and will trip cb1. Just have to cut the capacitors out and splice the wires together.

    Drash 28kw HVAC …. No power output

    The unit you have is rare and not very many people deal with them. Im one of the few. POCCUR is the expert on any HDT HVAC unit. He developed and worked for HDT and he has helped me tremendously over the years. The manuals are not available, only from HDT.

    Unused wires on mep 803a

    I dont think you have an issue with the generator. It sounds like the freezer is drawing way more than the generator can handle. The in rush of the compressor is causing the short circuit.
