THE HIGHEST POWER OUTPUT ALTERNATOR IN ITS SIZE/CLASS 

  • Engineered for High Energy Production.
  • Suitable for Marine, RV, Military, and Commercial applications.
  • Rapidly charges large battery banks.
  • Coolest operating temperatures for increased performance. Runs 8 - 20% cooler than incumbent alternators due to:
    • Heat shedding coatings
    • Rectifier located on housing exterior
    • Dual cooling fans
    • OEM Components
  • Optimized for performance at idle speeds.
  • Reduces need for generator by creating additional power with your engine.
  • Unleash peak performance with E-Coat/Cerakote. Our advanced coating absorbs less heat, keeping the A275L cooler. This translates to more amperage for sustained periods.
  • For maximum performance or lithium battery charging, use an ARCO Zeus Bluetooth alternator regulator.
  • SAE J1171 Certified.
  • Proudly made in the U.S.A.

To measure sustained output, the alternator is run at 3,000 RPMs for 60 minutes with a plexiglass shield covering the units. Testing shows that after 60 minutes in these conditions, alternators reach their maximum operating temperature, or the conditions under which the unit will produce the least output.

It is under these harsh conditions where we measure the “hot” output of the units at various RPMs. The complete power curve is shown above.

Note: The “hot” conditions are much less favorable than the conditions typically used in the industry. The temperature of the stator during our “hot” test was 305 °F. Incumbents measure the power curve at an ambient temperature of 140 °F. “Cold” testing was done at 71° F.

Easy install and fast charging

Arco A 275 alternator is almost a perfect fit on a yanmar 4jh3e. Installed with balmar pulley kit . Easy install and fast charging .n more belt dust covering everything.

A275L on a Yanmar 4JH3e

Installed A275L on a Yanmar 4JH3E without problems. The B+ post is removable to allow for fit under the heat exchanger. I already had a Serpentine kit (J10).
I'm using our existing Balmar regulator, hope to upgrade later to Zues reg later.
Using Balmar's belt manager I crimp it to ~150A, steady around 1250 engine RPM, 300 Alt.
Had a great experience ordering from The Yacht Rigger, they were able to accommodate to my travel schedule.
Great customer service!

That's wonderful to hear! Thank you so much for the 5 star review! Leaving a positive review like this helps others know what to expect. Fair winds and following seas.
