A water-cooled alternator uses engine coolant to remove heat instead of relying on airflow through the alternator housing. This allows the alternator to remain completely sealed against mud, water, sand and dust while still operating at the correct temperature.
Conventional air-cooled alternators draw outside air through the housing to keep themselves cool. Unfortunately, they also pull in mud, water, dust and sand, which eventually damages the internal components.
Our water-cooled alternators are completely sealed, dramatically reducing the risk of contamination while also providing increased charging capacity.
Yes.
The alternator housing is completely sealed from the outside elements. Unlike a conventional alternator, it does not rely on airflow through the housing for cooling.
Yes.
Engine coolant is extremely effective at removing heat, allowing the alternator to remain sealed without compromising cooling performance.
Each kit is designed specifically for the engine listed on the product page.
For example, our TD42 kit is designed specifically for the GU Nissan Patrol TD42.
Always check the product description before ordering.
No.
Our TD42 kit has been designed for the GU Nissan Patrol.
It is only suitable for a GQ Patrol if you're running a single drive belt setup and do not require the vacuum pump on the alternator.
If you're unsure, contact us before ordering.
No.
Our kits are designed as direct bolt-on replacements.
No fabrication, cutting, welding or rewiring is required.
Yes.
The kit has been designed to retain the factory drive belt.
If you're comfortable replacing a standard alternator, installation can be completed using basic hand tools.
We also provide a detailed installation video to guide you through the process.
No.
The alternator simply connects into your vehicle's existing cooling system.
No additional pumps or electrical components are required.
Yes.
After installation, the cooling system must be properly bled to remove any trapped air before operating the vehicle.
Please refer to the installation guide.
We strongly recommend it.
Your factory charge cable was designed for the original alternator and may not be suitable for the increased output of a 150A alternator.
Our heavy-duty 50mm² charge cable kit is designed specifically to complement our alternator kits.
Our alternators are rated at 150 amps.
This provides substantially more charging capacity than the factory alternator, making it ideal for vehicles running:
No.
We purposely designed our kits around a Bosch-style alternator.
If the alternator ever requires replacement, a compatible Bosch-style unit can be sourced from most major automotive parts suppliers.
You're never locked into buying an expensive manufacturer-only replacement.
