I have recently acquired a vessel in Australia that is fitted with a Lombardini LMG9000 genset.
It’s a 2 cylinder 3,000rpm setup that is meant to be good for 9kva.
It is 15 years old and has done 1,700 hours.
Down under we run AC power at 240v and circa 50hz.
It is producing the 50hz no problems but is only generating 195v.
On shore power the voltage gauge registers 240.
Nothing terrible happening yet however electrical appliances like the toaster arent getting to full heat.
I’ve got a couple questions if anyone can help.
In its current state do I run the risk of damaging any of the on board circuitry systems like the water heater, battery chargers, air conditioning etc?
Has anyone else addressed this and if so what was the fix?
Thanks in advance.
