The Balmar 60-YP-MC-120-DV is a complete 60-Series high-output marine alternator charging kit delivering 120 amps at 12 volts in a compact, small-case package. Designed for recreational marine applications, this kit pairs the proven 60-120-DV alternator with Balmar's MC-614 multi-stage voltage regulator for a fully integrated charging system right out of the box.
The alternator features a dual foot (saddle mount) 3.15-inch Hitachi-style mounting bracket with an isolated ground design and a Dual Deep Vee (1/2" DV) pulley. This mounting configuration is typical of Yanmar, Westerbeke, Lehman, and Perkins-Sabre marine diesel engines, making it an ideal direct upgrade or replacement for many production sailboats and powerboats.
Smart Ready® Technology sets the 60-Series apart from conventional alternators. The built-in internal regulation allows the alternator to function as a standalone charge controller — serving as a full-time regulator for simpler systems or as a reliable built-in backup regulator on vessels equipped with an external multi-stage regulator. The high-airflow frame with dual fan cooling supports up to 12,000 RPM maximum operating speed and delivers up to 60 amps at idle.
