Auto-Gen Turns Engine

Power To AC Electricity

Power from a boat's main engine can be converted to onboard AC electricity with installation of the

Auto-Gen M4002 cruising genera- tor. It is a fuel-saving alternative to gas-powered generators, or an emergency back-up power source.

Driven by the engine's crank- shaft pulley, the M4002 provides 4,250 watts of 120/2400 AC power.

Its compact size and unitized frame allows installation in nearly any position. A bi-directional rotation makes either starboard or port-side mounting convenient. If direct con- nection to the crankshaft is not pos- sible, the Auto-Gen can be driven by any accessible pulley which of- fers adequate speed and belt size.

The unit is outfitted with a vari- able speed drive transmission which adjusts automatically to a change in the engine's rpm's. As a result, the generator provides a constant and balanced output. The M4002 weighs 125 pounds.

Litton Canada Wins $10

Million Contract

Litton Systems Canada, Limited,

Etobicoke, Ontario, has been awarded a contract worth over $10 million to design, produce and sup- port two new sonar post-analysis systems for the Canadian Navy.

When completed in 1995, one sys- tem will be installed in the Acoustic

Data Analysis Center (ADAC) in

Halifax, Nova Scotia, and the other in the ADAC Detachment

Esquimait, British Columbia.

The post-analysis systems will be designed to enhance the Canadian

Navy's capability to analyze the vast amounts of data recorded on its ships using Canadian towing array sonar.

Litton claims its new systems will process the data many times faster than current operational equipment.
