What are the types of alternators used and what maintenance is required on Chevrolet Caprice?

The alternator used in all models is a Delco-Remy Delcotron, with three types available, the 5.5 inch Series 1D and the 10DN Series 10OB and Series 10SI, and one must note that while the types 5.5 inch Series 1D and 10DN require an external voltage regulator, the type Series 10SI has an internal regulator. Care involves now and then removing dust or oil with a soft cloth, checking the tightness of the driving belt, and the fact that no greasing point has ever been needed because the alternator bearings are permanently lubricated for their life. A lot of caution must always be exercised while making the following circuit connections on a car carrying an alternator: whenever charging through an alternator from a battery, always observe correct polarity. When using electric-arc welding equipment, for welding repair, it is necessary to unscrew the connector from the alternator, and the positive terminal of the battery. Never start the vehicle with a battery charger connected, and always remove both battery leads before using such a charger. If charging from another battery, connect in parallel with fat conducts. It is not safe and wise to perform an alternator test at home because it involves use of special testing tools and may lead to damage; thus it is better to let automotive electrical experts in this task.

Chevrolet Caprice Alternator

Alternator is an important one, which is built-in battery charger and onboard generator in Chevrolet Caprice vehicle and supplies power to auto's electrical systems while it is on the road. It works by using the mechanical energy provided by the engine to generate electricity via a rotating magnetic field that outputs AC that is later transformed into DC needed in recharging the battery and other electrical equipment. For the years, Chevrolet Caprice models come in different alternators that have different ways in terms of excitation which may be either the field coils or permanent magnets. The main difference of these alternators is that older models use external or clutch type internal voltage regulators while late model use internal voltages regulators incorporated into the PCM. Caprice owners who have installed additional hearty electrical equipment may find advantages of replacing it by a high output alternator, particularly at increased loading conditions.
