OUR BRANDS
Effective from mid 2007 you will see that all of
our products are dual branded Prestolite and
Leece-Neville. We think its important that our
customers are able to make the link between
these two great brands and its a reminder that all
Leece-Neville products are available from
Prestolite and vice versa!
OUR PRODUCTS
We offer a complete range of Heavy, Medium and
Light Duty starters and alternators covering all
major European Truck, Car and Van applications as
well as comprehensive Bus & Coach,
Off-Highway, Agricultural, Marine and Industrial
application coverage.
Look out for our new Refrigeration Equipment and
Marine catalogues coming soon!

DISCLAIMER
While every care has been taken in compiling the information in this document, Prestolite / Leece-Neville cannot
accept legal liability for any inaccuracies, omissions, or consequential damage resulting there from.
Prestolite / Leece-Neville has an extensive design and development team which may alter product specication.
Prestolite / Leece-Neville reserves the right to alter specications without notice and whenever necessary to endure
optimum performance from its product range.
Insulated return (IR) / Insulated ground (IG) alternator have B+ (battery positive) and B- (battery negative)
terminals, ie the battery leads at the alternator are insulated from the alternator frame, ie insulated return.
DFM terminal communicates with the vehicle ECU and controls alternator output depending on load and system
conditions.
F- is eld isolation terminal. If eld isolation is not required the F- must be connected to the B- terminal.
S is the sense lead / terminal. This is normally used where the voltage drop across battery leads are expected to be
signicant, ie long battery cable runs, where multiple battery banks and load splitters are used. This terminal monitors
the voltage at the point of termination not the alternator terminals, and regulated alternator performance accordingly.
This terminal is normally connected directly to the positive terminal of the charging system battery.
Alternator rotation. Alternator rotation is determined by the fan design. By design the alternator is
bi-directional and can operate in either CW or CCW direction. Straight vain fans are bi-directional, see g.1.
Curved vain fans are direction specic, and a rotation direction is indicated on the fan, see g.2.
Directional fan design generally provide more efcient cooling of alternator.
Fig.1 Fig.2
Internal fan alternators are rotation specic, due to the fans being permanently attached internally to the rotor.
The direction of rotation on internal fan alternators cannot be changed.
Consult the drawing or Technical Helpline for specic part number rotational direction.

This is an earth return alternator.
The vehicle harness plugs directly into
the regulator connection. The regulator
may interact with the vehicle ECU.

as some functions vary depending on
vehicle. Ensure the correct regulator /
alternator is specied.
