Hand Crank
Generator System
The Harris Hand Crank Generator System is designed for
charging batteries in locations where no other source
of AC or DC power is available. The system is rugged,
environmentally resistant, and suitable for use in a field
environment. It is designed to charge 24-volt BB-390 Nickel
Metal Hydride (NiMH), BB-490 Lead Acid, or BB-590 Nickel
Cadmium (NiCd) rechargeable batteries. The generator is
designed to be manually operated by hand cranking handles
in a bicycle fashion. The crank handles easily fold against
the generator body to provide a small size for transport.
The unit may be strapped to a tree for support using the
strap and ratchet clamp included. An optional foot stand is
also available which permits operating the generator while
standing.
The system consists of two main units, the 12027-0001-01
Hand Crank Generator and the 12027-0002-01 Foot Stand.
The 12027-0001-01 consists of the generator, tree mount
kit, operator instruction card, cable with pigtail leads to
connect the generator to a 12-volt load, and a second cable
to allow the generator to plug into up to two of the above
type batteries simultaneously. The system is designed to
charge the 24-volt batteries as individual 12-volt batteries for
optimum balance of charge. The generator includes indicator
lamps to inform the operator of proper operation. All items
are contained in a carrying case that has a shoulder strap and
is suitable for field transport by an individual operator. The
12027-0002-01 optional foot stand consists of a two-piece
collapsible monopole stand that will support the generator
to chest height and permit operation of the generator while
the operator is standing. The foot stand may be used if no
suitable tree is available to support the generator.
