{"product_id":"balmar-sf170ir-xt-series-alternator-170-amp","title":"Balmar SF170IR Xt-Series Alternator, 170 Amp","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor WakeBoat and Inboard Gas Applications.State-of-the-art, braided wire stator design to generate exceptional output in the smallest possible area. The XT-Series stator achieves an industry-best 85% copper windings density which provides more power at low RPM, higher overall power and cooler operation. Mounting styles are drop-in compatible for WakeBoat and other GM gasoline engine applications. Over 60% of WakeBoat run times are at idle speed. Many high current electrical loads are engaged at idle, including ballast pumps, high-output stereo systems and multiple instrumentation loads. Standard alternators only produce about 30A-40A at idle speed, leaving these loads to be serviced by onboard batteries. Excessive draining causes battery sulfation and reduced lifetimes. Dealers report that AGM batteries which should last 5-7 years on these vessels are being replaced annually. The XT-Series Alternator produces over 100A at idle speed â€“ ample power to service all electrical loads with power left over to top-off house batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Balmar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43217361764470,"sku":"XTSF170IR","price":592.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1932\/6047\/files\/684-SF170IR.jpg?v=1774211158","url":"https:\/\/modernboatservice.com\/products\/balmar-sf170ir-xt-series-alternator-170-amp","provider":"Modern Boat Sales \u0026 Service","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
