P90 718 Firetruck-Woodway electrical unit - what is it ?
Posted: Mon Sep 25, 2017 2:46 am
Hi all, we are doing a refit on a P90 718 Firetruck from the UK (Isle of Man). It has a Woodway Engineering electrical unit installed in it behind the drivers seat (RHD). We thinkthat it was a way to get 110V for main appliances (such as pumps ?) but are confused whether this is in fact what it did do, how it works and if it is a fully sperate system from the main Pinzgauer 12V electrics or whether they somehow share elements. Can someone please help us by answering any of the below questions.
1/ Does the pinzgauer P90 718 have a 12V or 24V alternator? How many Watts does it put out?
2/ If the alternator is 24V how does the battery get charged? (seems to be not get charged; 11,5V if engine is running)
3/ Can you tell us more about what the generator-box is (Woodway engineering model 2500 ) ? And if yes can you tell anything about the tech specs and how it works please?
4/ Can you tell me how the system of the generator is set ment to be up ? We can see cables from the generator to grey aluminum box underneath the car close to the alternator and from there to the Woodway engineering box in the back of the drivers seat.
Any and all answers are greatly appreciated. Essentially we are trying to either remove this unit completely, if it does offer benefits to us, or alternatively retask it to our current applications.
Many thanks
Philip
