    January 2, 2013 at 8:39 am in reply to: Voltage Regulator and Geny Battery Isolator

    Greg,

    Great Idea…. I just tried that I killed both the 12v and 24v main disconnects as well as the emergency 12v constant disconnect and the geny LED panel remained on and the geny fired right up from the switch on the generator.

    I do have a isolated geny battery and all house batteries and I believe the geny batter were replaced in August by Marathon in FL…

    So now I am really confused 🙂

    Perhaps it’s not a battery issue but something with the setup of the auto gen… but the crazy thing is when the house batteries are in a deplated state to test the auto gen… the generator would not start manaully from the Geny control panel…

    According to Marathon tech service the check valve for Aux tank service is located at the compressor. Have few issues with check valve and should be replaced at some point as planed maintenance.

    No valve is located at the split and there is a reason.

    Another check valve does exist on top of Aux air tank under the drivers seat. This check valve is for the Marathon Air service i.e.,air windows, toilet, air slide doors, air floor slide.

    Supply service from tank has a direct 3/8 inch service after going through a SMC water seperator (this is the seperator mounted on the floor of the drivers bay) then direct line service to rear bedroom manifold.

    That’s the newly replaced black manifold I pictured back a few posts. Each system then has a regulator and has a set pressure for operation. A separate supply line from the 10 gal rear supply runs to the trap door regulator set at 80 lbs. mounted behind a service panel in water bay ( drivers side) . With the help of an air piston raises and lowers the trap door for access to sewer hose and 50 amp cord.

    Sewer hose is the “hog” for air and as I understand air is reversed back with an introduction of a part called “knife valve”. Air is supplied to this storage tank by two 3/8 inch lines ,1) direct Thomas compressor air line, 2) direct green Aux tank line.

    Assume the sewer hose is in…… press “out” button and you have opened the knife valve to a 1 -1/2 inch supply direct to sewer hose that pressurizes the 4 inch hose and out it shoots. Works perfect as long as the cap is on the end of sewer hose. The reverse happens and the sewer hose is sucked back into the bus.

    I have tested all supply service lines on the bus with the help of my $990 Missouri style shop compressor. Marathon runs supply lines in one piece front to back of bus where air is needed. Keeping it as simple as possible. I would not call it simple …..but now understand how it works.

    Back to Jon’s point, yes this check valve should be located down the line for longer service life. I do have a super high heat custom valve and will be replaced a little more often then 7 years.

    Threegreens, if your still at home scratching your head. Maybe you could use a hot wire jump from an external battery to try and power the reel.

    Rocky,

    I think you are describing the standard relays that are used throughout the automotive industry. The component you describe sure sounds like a diode. The diode’s purpose is to suppress voltage spikes. FWIW, some relays use resistors to achieve the same goal. Here’s a great document on relays and the diode you described: http://www.autoshop101.com/forms/hweb2.pdf

    Can you give us an example Sid? We try really hard to keep up with the sold coaches, some e-mail and tell us they are sold and we delete the Ad. As Jon pointed out though, most of the Advertisers control their own inventory on the site.

    Let me know if you need any other photos or have any questions. Here are some photos of my aux. air system. I wanted to show you one of the many uses of air cylinders, I hated the door always blowing in to me when there is a wind.

    Due to the recent changes in the govt. and budget restraints … the pearly gates are now closed indefinitely.

    I vote for slides … Two at the most, no more.
