Altronic V

Altronic V is a self-powered, low-tension, capacitor discharge ignition system for 1 to 6 cylinder, 2 or 4-cycle engines. The Altronic V unit can be furnished with any number of output channels between 1 and 6. For 4-cycle applications, a choice is offered of units using the exhaust stroke firing principle or units firing on the compression stroke only. Altronic V has internal timing pick-up coils combined with Altronic’s proven 8-pole permanent magnet alternator to give high output at low engine cranking speeds. The electronic circuit has a minimum of components for maximum reliability, and all are mounted on the unit’s removable back cover for ease of service. The combination alternator/timing-distribution unit design allows for a simple installation, directly replacing high and low-tension, breaker-type magnetos. A wiring harness and one ignition coil per cylinder complete the system. Options available for the Altronic V ignition system include long spark duration coils and electronic timing capability to allow the user to customize the system to his particular application requirements.
