What it does

On a diesel-electric rig, generators are paralleled onto a common bus as load demands. Before a set can be closed onto that bus, its voltage, frequency, and phase angle have to match what is already there. The AutoSync AC II module is the control that performs that match and permits the close.

When it degrades, the symptom is operational rather than electrical: a set that will not come online, takes a long time to sync, or closes roughly. Rough closure is the one to take seriously: paralleling out of phase is mechanically violent and expensive.

Review this requirement with EI

Include the reported issue and any existing technician findings with your parts request. Symptoms alone do not identify a replacement. Send the installed part label and equipment details for SCR parts identification & RFQ support.

Full identification matters

Send the complete part number, label photos, equipment details, and any proposed replacement already included in your requirement. EI reviews the identification and configuration with your quote request; a similar number or rating does not establish fit.

Nameplate & revision

We verify the exact dash number and revision against the physical unit before quoting, and we send photos of the plate on the unit being offered. Send a photo of your nameplate, or type out what it reads, and we will match the revision rather than guess at it.

Condition and sourcing

Any offered unit is identified as new-surplus, used-tested, or reconditioned before sale.

FAQ

What is the Ross Hill 0000-8500-00?

It is the AutoSync AC II module in Ross Hill / NOV SCR generator control. It matches an incoming generator's voltage, frequency, and phase to the running bus and permits paralleling.

What is the difference between 0000-8500-00 and 0000-8500-18?

The dash suffix is the engine calibration, not a revision. The -18 is recorded against a CAT 3512B at 1200 RPM with 183 flywheel teeth. Fitting the wrong calibration means the set will not sync properly. Match the suffix to your engine.

Which revisions exist?

Rev C and Rev E are both confirmed in service. We verify the revision on the physical unit before quoting and send plate photos of the actual item being offered.

My generator will not sync: is it definitely this module?

Not necessarily. The auxiliary PCB 0001-2657 inside the assembly is frequently the actual failure, and connector and vibration issues are common. Send us what the set is doing and the numbers off the cards before you buy anything.

Is it still available?

Not from original production. We source it as new-surplus, used-tested, and reconditioned, with condition disclosed before sale.
