ELECTRICAL

2 diesel generators on board of our Monsoon:
Kohler 14 kW generator (Yanmar 4 cil diesel has 11000 hrs May-2010)
and
Fisher Panda 8 Kw (3 cil Kubota diesel has 1200 hrs May 2010)
these units supply 220V AC power to following :
--- Lewco 40 Amp/24V battery charger
--- Mastervolt Combi 240 VAC/ 24 VDC/4kW real
   sine wave inventor / 120 Amps charger
--- Heart 60 Amp/24V charger-2500 W-invertor

--- Vantage marine 18 gal/hr watermaker.
--- Electric Ceramic cooking plate in galley.
--- Aqua-air reverse cycle airconditioning in master-
and  guest cabin
--- Bauer dive compressor in aft lazarette
--- Xantrex 30 Amp/12Volts battery charger.

--- Holding plate deep freezer 500 litres
--- Washing machine in bathroom

An second electrical panel (220V/50 Hz) is powered from the 4000 Watt Mastervolt DC-to-AC invertor (2009) or gets her power from generator when in service. All control and switch panels have breaker-switches.
This second panel contains: stereo, computers, microwave, blender, toaster, rice cooker, and all 220V outlets in the ship.

The Xantrex Link 20 (new 2007) monitors the 24 and 12 volt battery banks 24 hrs a day.

There are telephone and shorepower inlets and cords. There is a 10kW shorepower-insulation-transformer to avoid electrolysis and to convert 110V to 220 V, or 220V to 220V. This transformer enables the yacht to accept European 220 V as well as USA 110V shore power supply. Monsoon has no 50 versus 60 Hz problems. And for safety ALL high-voltage circuits are protected with earth-leakage breakers. (2005)
We have a 2kW transformer to generate 110 Volts AC from 220 V , to run anything that needs this current, mostly small hand tools.
A HEHR 100 Amps/24V (2004) alternator/3 step regulator is mounted on the main engine. Monsoon is a socalled silent ship: during passage making under sail the generator is needed only during 6 hours per day, we do from 18 hrs to midnight, because we have electric cooking.

Batteries 24 VDC and 12 VDC
Rectangular plate lead/acid commercial deep cycle battery house banks, 1x 740 AmpHr at 24 Volt (new 2003)
225 AmpHr/12 V (new 2007) Bosch lead acid batteryfor generator start and 12 volt service.

When all batteries are down...
A situation that never occured to us but is the nightmare of every boatman, when neither main engine nor any of the gensets wants to start because of insufficient power in he batteries...We found a nice solution...the MonsoonXYZ , which charges the 12 volt batterie to start up the generator. Input power of this unit is 13 to 36 VDC, so your main bank may be down down and still supply power to charge your 12 volt battery bank.

Electronics + Navigation

The previous Furuno Fish finder try out with marinebiologist Jan Kees Karelse was more than succesful.(see that orange basket with all that snappers on the foto above ) Coromandle NZ 1995.
