Remy International's Delco Remy 38SI high output alternator features remote sense to reduce battery charge time and a unique stator design that improves horsepower requirements and fuel savings. According to the company, fuel cost savings and efficiency ratings improve as alternator efficiency increases 60 to 72% over a typical life cycle. A premium brushless design transfers magnetic fields between the field and rotor air-gap, eliminating the need for brushes and extending life, while equipment inspection and approval assure quality and performance for aftermarket replacements. The high-efficiency, mid-range amperage alternator offers 215 A and is suitable for school buses, line-haul commercial trucks with anti-idling equipment, emergency vehicles, refuse trucks, utility vehicles, shuttle buses, and recreational vehicles.
