Looking for some info on a solar T-350 turbine currently ins

[melvin76]

I purchased this genset about 2 years ago and haven't had time to tinker with it I can't figure the starting sequence looking to bypass factory setup and hopefully someone can walk me through a starting sequence (jumping solenoids etc.) Turbine turns free and smooth and I'm mechanically inclined but this is my first go at a shaft turbine. Motor if from the 60's I believe turbine seems simple but genset end is much more complex. Thanks for any help

What Kind of info?

[melvin76]

Turbine is currently Installed on 200kw Genset. Everything solid state, THE genset seems to be the more complex side wiring wise, I'm contacted solar and they dont info that far back, I was trying to get help starting turbine independent of genset. I've run car engines outside their vehicles and I know the bare minimum to get a small block Chevy running on a tire. But not a 60's turbine.
There are YouTube videos posted of my exact engine, but I havnt been able to find the guy but he had it setup on a trailer running off of Gas cans with very simple wiring. Videos are titled "New Lemons motor for chevette Gas turbine"

Thanks for the vid link .

She's a big unit :-)

There could be complications , have you looked around on the Net for a manual ??

There will undoubtedly be safety interlocks in the system which could be difficult to bypass without more detailed information :-(

Cheers
