Honda Civic Remanufactured Alternator

If the alternator is not working, you've got a few options. You can buy a new alternator, or get a new one. Both of these solutions have a workable alternator. A new alternator gives you a working system where all parts are at the same wear and tear stage, but is often the most expensive option. A reconstructed system will not have all its parts in the same wear and tear state but it is an affordable alternative to buying a new alternator. Remanufactured alternators are a substitute of high quality, suitable today for many road vehicles. Remanufactured alternators use high-quality , high-temp lubricant bearings and double-lipped rubber seals. Rotors and stators are checked electronically, then coated with secondary isolating coating. Remanufacturing alternators is a common industrial procedure involving the disassembly of existing systems and the replacement of components most likely to wear with new components. Damaged and obsolete parts are replaced, and tested to ensure perfect performance. It can last about seven years, or about 100,000 to 150,000 miles. These remanufactured alternators are capable of delivering the same performance , durability and service life you expect from the new alternative.

Remanufactured alternators are more economical than new alternators. Only the defective part is replaced and produced in working state. Alternators are a kind of generators used in modern automobiles when their engine is running to charge the battery and power the electrical system.

The remanufactured alternator works exactly the same as the new alternator. The alternator in the car is a kind of mini-electric generator that converts mechanical energy into electric energy through a process called alternating current. Without an alternator, your car's engine would have no spark, your headlights would have no light and your heater would have no way of keeping you comfortable in the winter. The method sounds complicated but it really is pretty clear how an alternator works. The alternator consists of a voltage controller and three main components: the stator, rotor, and diode. When the battery initially propels the car, alternator belt, or V-belt, it spins the pulley on the alternator, causing the rotor to spin very fast inside the alternator. This rotor, which is essentially a magnet or group of magnets, is located within a nest of copper wires, called the stator. The process whereby spinning magnets generate electricity at incredibly rapid speeds along a set of copper wires is called electromagnetism. Through the copper wires the electricity harnessed in this way is conducted into a diode, which changes the electricity from AC to DC, the current used by the car battery. The next stage is a built-in feature on modern alternators inside the voltage regulator, which is essentially a gatekeeper that will shut down the power flow to the battery if the voltage reaches a certain amount, which prevents the battery from overloading and burning out. The current is allowed to flow back from the alternator as the car battery is depleted, and the process continues and continues.

The engine is bolted by an alternator and driven by a belt.
