This is a military diesel generator I bought from auction. It's 16 years old and has been sitting outside, un-used, most of it's life. Lets bring it back to life. Model: MEP-831A, which is a 3kW 120/240V model. It has a single cylinder Yanmar diesel engine. Model L70AE-DEGFR, or typically we just say L70.
This is about a 6 horsepower engine, but probably feels more like a 7 horsepower. The data sticker says Cont. Output: 4.4kW, and Max output: 4.9kW. 296cc displacement.
Generator Control Boards:
Kurt Klopp designs and builds control boards for several military generators. In most cases, these are improved designs from the original. Visit his Ebay store here: ebay.us/yCVYqV
"As an Ebay Partner, I may be compensated if you make a purchase"
Note, I purchased my board from Kurt at full price.
Buying a military generator: If you want to buy a military generator contact my buddy, Chris, here: mepgenerators@pm.me He is in North Carolina and buys generators at auction. Then he fixes them up, and load tests them before selling.
Signature Solar Affiliate Links:
If you want to charge an off grid battery bank using a generator, I recommend this charger from Signature Solar.
Chargeverter, 100A: signaturesolar.com/eg4-charge...
Battery Bank, this is the one I'm using with my off grid solar system: signaturesolar.com/eg4-lifepo...
Inverter, I'm using the Schneider XW PRO inverter. It's low frequency, has a transformer inside, and handles my whole house and tools. signaturesolar.com/schneider-...

As the proud owner of an MEP-803a I can say Kurt's products are top notch. Late last year I replaced the voltage regulator with one of his due to a failing adjustment potentiometer. From my own observations his regulator seems much more precise than the old original unit. (to be fair the original unit was 19 years old)

You brought back memories from the 1960s. My dad and I worked on military surplus gensets made by Onan. These units were for American Red Cross disaster service. The units were very well made and came with technical manuals etc. We had a non-military Onan too from the early 1950s that was hand crank start. It was a true beast to crank. We mounted it in a trailer as part of a lighting unit. This all was a great learning experience for a teenager. Thanks so much for your video and best wishes with your project.

Oh man that surging sound brings back a lot of memories, that was such a widespread problem that I'd just assumed that was its normal mode of operation. The larger generators would do that as well, but only when the fuel started running low - prompting a Lcpl to scramble for a jerry can before the thing died.

We (Army) had a 5kw and 10kw genset that we commonly used, total beasts! 10kw is a misnomer, it was two 10kw generators on the trailer. You could run them independently or bond them for 18kw (never figured out why they said 18kw when bonded). The biggest I saw was in a Patriot unit. When I was there, they had two 200kw turbine generators, I understand now they're using 150kw diesel sets.

I've been looking at these myself and these look like great units. I would ditch the inverter, rectify into DC, send into charge controller and run the engine @1800 RPM. It should drastically increase the fuel economy and would still charge my batteries quickly. It would drastically reduce the hassle with the electronics on the generator. Add a simple 2 wire start setup and just flip a switch Subscribed

That's a pretty big 3KW generator set!! I would almost bet that the flaw with the engine speed module was with all them potentiometer adjustments just left outside of the module, in the open to salt air moisture, fumes, dust and potential of debris! And so it just might look as though the Marine Corps scrapped the notion of any future contracts and semi de-militarized them to a small degree. Those gen-sets were probably also to expensive to buy anymore and given the reliability aspects and well. That may explain the low hours on this one! The supply chain may have also failed to get these modules given just who is the manufacturer was that was subcontracted for that module build! Who the hell really knows for that matter! I know of a Chief Senior Military Technologist person that was contracted by Pentagon that may have been involved for the testing and approval for the purchase of such equipment for the military. His name is Lee Wheelbarger, Inventor and skilled professional when it comes to a lot of things related to the military! I supposed that if you were to contact him David, perhaps he might be able to fill you in on a thing or two on this Genset!

When you opened the front panel at 8:47 - my eyes went straight to the little blue trimmers. Wow, PC mount trimmers exposed to the world. Those appear to be Bourns 3386 trimmers - very high quality trimmers that are 'kind of' sealed. We have found that they occasionally don't fare well when exposed to high humidity or moisture for extended periods of time. My guess - they went bad. Inexpensive at about $2 each. Bourns part number 3386P-1-xxxLF. The xxx is the resistance value which is printed on the part. For example "253" which would be a 25K ohm trimmer -- 3386P-1-253LF. The replacement board appears to have a digital-potentiometer on it (IC7) - good idea.

I was made a Sgt. of the guard and part my job was care of the generators at night. There were around a dozen or more, like each the size of four fridges or more. If it was more then some basic stuff, then I'ld have to wake some of the engineers. Lots of dials and switches to check and know how to start and run. I fully expected some Green Baray(sp) to try to sneak in and try to sabatage them, that being a choice target, but they never did, but the generators were the biggest prob for that month in the woods other than a couple of my guards.

I had to drain and replace the oil three times to get all the water out. It runs great. Has a onan diesel. The only problem with it is a winding issue that causes a harmonic ac voltage imposed into the dc circuit. Not a real problem but causes radio interference. I bought an in-line filter that shunts out the interference.

It's a lot easier to label when they aren't screwed in. Removing one at a time then labeling it.

I've worked on those generators and adding a digital controller for being able to remote start when mains power fails you can combine the remote start with an ATS and you have a good budget backup system

This is solid proof as to why a Honda EU 3000is is a smoking deal compared to this tired out old beast. but getting it running was a lot of fun!

Oil pressure warning light will always be on until the oil pump starts pumping oil.

different from the generators i used to work on in the 80's, kinda cool. only thing is back in the 80's all the generators as i recall were made in the U.S.A. Governors back then if i remember right were all mechanical and the first thing to go was usually the voltage regulators.
