Operation
OPERATION
The generator decoupler is used only with certain engines. The decoupler is a one-way clutch designed to help reduce belt tension fluctuation,
vibration, reduce fatigue loads, improve belt life, reduce hubloads on components, and reduce noise. Dry operation is used (no grease or lubricants). The
decoupler is not temperature sensitive and also has a low sensitivity to electrical load. The decoupler is a non-serviceable item and is to be replaced as an
assembly.
