Hi Rolf, welcome to Outdoorking. The Scorpion HM63 is a small 640 Watt camping generator. It seems to be the same item which is called Telimax or Sun New Haomai TS950 by its manufacturer. I haven't found any detailed information, but the manufacturer says it runs at 3,600 rpm, which if true is unfortunate.

To suit Australian conditions it has to produce AC output at 50 Hertz, and it has a high-speed engine and therefore will have a 2 pole alternator, direct-driven by the engine. (Belt drive generators do exist, but only in slightly larger sizes, and even then they seem to me to be uncommon unless rather crudely engineered by small firms. It is a dumb way to make a generator.) This means the engine has to run at exactly 3,000 rpm. It is common for a lot of the medium-sized and larger diesel engines to have 4 pole alternators and therefore run at exactly 1,500 rpm, because the engine lasts a great deal longer that way, but your Scorpion must run at 3,000. If it does not run at 3,000 rpm, its output will not be 50 Hertz, and appliances you connect to it may not operate correctly.

Because the manufacturer says it runs at 3,600 rpm, we have to hope that the Scorpion-branded version has its governor set for 3,000 rpm not 3,600 rpm, or it will produce 60 Hertz electricity, which will not make 50 Hertz appliances happy. I'm not accustomed to tiny generators that change speed when they run at no load. The ones I've seen maintain the 3,000 rpm at all times. The major reason for that is to achieve a rapid uptake of load when you switch on a 240 volt appliance. For a rather bigger generator of several kVA that is powering a household it is practicable to drop the engine speed to idle when no appliances are running, then use electronic load sensing to delay switching on the generator output until it comes up to speed, but I haven't seen anyone do that on a tiny camping generator like yours.

Just in case you enjoy your generator so much that you want to buy a lot more of them, bear in mind that the manufacturer says he would like to sell them at $50 to $70 per unit, Free On Board at Fuzhou, depending on how many you order. That often means that whoever Scorpion is, he bought them for considerably less than that, since the 'quoted' price tends to be the opening ask rather than the final agreement. Attached Files.

The 'Air Gap' is adjusted to create an electromagnetic 'charge' between the magnets of the flywheel and the coil of the ignition system. Without the correct clearance it will not produce the spark necessary to fire the spark plug. When the magnets pass closely to the coil, to make it simpler, it produces this 'charge' which is then amplified by the coil that can produce as much as 25-50,000 volts I don't want to make this sound like rocket science, but the fact is if the coil touches the magnets it will wear out the coil and the magnets and not create the right spark.

Too much clearance and it will not produce a spark. I first started working with small engines in the early-to-mid 60s and discovered that by taking a sheet of note-book paper and folding it into about three layers thick, placing it between the magnet and coil loosening the coil so that the magnet would pull the coil to make contact and tightening the coil in place.

The clearance would then be satisfactory to make a good spark. It would then be a simple matter to turn the flywheel to rotate the paper out from between the flywheel and coil. Oct 19, 2013. A mag or magneto is a coil of wire that is 'excited' by a permanent magnet thereby inducing a high voltage to fire the spark plug with. Most single cylinder lawnmowers use mag and point systems to fire the plug. Coil is hard mounted and the permanent magnet is part of the flywheel with the points mounted under the flywheel. A coil is a two coils of wire, one is connected to ground on one end and the other end is connected to either a set of points or an electronic switch, either of which turns on and off the current through that coil.

When the coil discharges its electrical potential, its magnetic field collapses, inducing a high voltage in the other coil which is used to fire the spark plug. Sep 30, 2012.
