SINCRO PMG Series: 3-Phase Air-Cooled Permanent Magnet Alternators for Micro-CHP

SINCRO PMG Series: 3-Phase Air-Cooled Permanent Magnet Alternators for Micro-CHP

Next-Generation Power Density and Efficiency for Cogeneration Systems

The SINCRO PMG Series represents a giant leap forward in energy generation for Micro Combined Heat and Power (Micro-CHP) units. Designed specifically for high-performance cogeneration applications, these 3-phase air-cooled alternators utilize advanced NdFeB (Neodymium-Iron-Boron) radial flux magnets to deliver exceptional efficiency, ultra-compact dimensions, and long-term reliability.

Unlike conventional fixed-speed alternators, the SINCRO PMG series is built for variable speed operation. This allows your engine to run at its sweet spot—maximizing fuel efficiency, reducing emissions, and drastically extending the operational lifespan of your Micro-CHP setup.

Why Choose the SINCRO PMG Series for Micro-CHP?

• Superior Energy Conversion Efficiency: Advanced radial flux NdFeB permanent magnets eliminate rotor excitation losses, helping these alternators reach efficiency levels up to 94%.

• Smart Variable Speed Design: Enables seamless operation across speeds from 1,000 RPM up to 3,000+ RPM, allowing prime movers (gas or diesel engines) to optimize speed based on load demand.

• Modular Architecture: Built around a standardized internal stack module system, giving manufacturers the freedom to scale output power without redesigning external mounting frames.

• Heavy-Duty Protection: Enclosed in a rugged chassis rated IP54 / IP55 for strong resistance against dust particles and liquid sprays.

• Low Maintenance & High Reliability: Brushless design with no wearable excitation components translates to minimal downtime and lower total cost of ownership.
