ST-15 Alternator — Frame 180

ST Series · ST系列单相发电机

The ST-15 is a 15 kW / 18.75 kVA single-phase 2-wire alternator from Zhiqiang's ST series. It runs at 230 V / 50 Hz with B-class insulation and IP21 protection, and is factory-matched to Yuchai diesel engines for genset applications.

We wind the stator and rotor of every ST machine in our own workshop in Luchuan, so the insulation class, the copper fill and the voltage regulation are set by us rather than bought in with a third-party alternator. Voltage is held to ±5% on this frame, and the IP21 enclosure keeps dust and water spray away from the windings on humid, coastal sites.

If you are unsure whether this frame is the right match, send us the load and the site conditions and we will confirm it — or the next size up if you need a safer margin for motor starting. Sizing advice is free before you order, and the kW to kVA sizing guide shows the arithmetic we use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the prime rating of the ST-15 alternator?▼

18.75 kVA / 15 kW at 50 Hz and 1500 rpm, power factor 1, rated 230 V and 65.24 A. That is the continuous (prime) figure. Confirm the duty before ordering: a standby set is loaded to the engine's standby rating instead, and the frame must match whichever duty you buy.

Which generator sets are built with the ST-15?▼

No standard catalogue model ships with the ST-15 at present — it is wound to order, normally for a specific engine, speed and mounting. Send us those three details and we will confirm the frame, the shaft and the coupling before you commit.

What insulation and protection class does the ST-15 use?▼

Class B insulation with IP21 protection, weighing 142 kg on frame 180. The higher insulation class tolerates a bigger temperature rise without shortening life, which is the point in a tropical plant room where ambient air sits near 40°C for months at a time.
