| Diesel Generator:
Century 60 BED The Century Series
Advantage
Extremely lightweight and compact...
Unique to the Century Series generators are standard fluidlastic
isolation mounts providing the best possible vibration isolation and
noise elimination to the vessels hull.
The AC generators are all class "H" insulated (the highest NEMA
insulation rating) and double vacuum epoxy impregnated for protection
against the harsh marine environment.
All Century Generators are fresh water cooled with a standard cupro-nickel
heat exchanger that mounts directly to the underside of the water-jacket
exhaust manifold for more efficient cooling. Even more noticeable is the
extremely light weight of the Century series generators with especially
short lengths and low heights.
Standard Features
- Smooth and Quiet Operation
Unique to the Century Series generators are fluidlastic isolation
mounts that are provided as standard. These mounts provide the
best possible vibration isolation and eliminate noise transmission
to the vessel's hull.
- Engine
Naturally aspirated and turbo charged 4.3 and 6.5 liter engines
power the Century Series generators. Both the cylinder head and
block are cast iron while the crankshaft is made of pressed forged
high carbon steel, high frequency hardened, for additional
strength. Replaceable chromium plated, dry cylinders contribute to
an extended engine life. Glow plugs aid cold weather starting. An
easily accessible oil drain hose assists with routine maintenance.
- AC Generator
The AC generators are all class "H" insulated (the highest NEMA
rating) and double vacuum epoxy impregnated for protection against
the harsh marine environment. Electronic governing and voltage
regulation provide .5% frequency regulation and 1% voltage
regulation.
- Safety Devices
All Century Series models are equipped with overspeed, low oil
pressure, high coolant temperature and high exhaust temperature
safety shutdowns. AC short circuit and overload protection are
provided using a generator field circuit breaker. Other safety
devices include an oil bypass alarm and fail safe mounts.

- Cupro-Nickel Heat Exchanger
All Century Series generators are fresh water cooled with a
standard cupro-nickel heat exchanger that mounts directly to the
underside of the water-jacketed exhaust manifold for more
efficient cooling. This unique Westerbeke design and the use of
cast aluminum piping minimizes the use of hose connections in the
cooling system, providing added reliability and reduced
maintenance.
- Durable Anti-Corrosive Paint
Westerbeke's new paint system now offers increased resistance to
the harsh marine environment through the use of an iron phosphate
pre-treatment, a non-chrome sealer and a high gloss acrylic
enamel. Westerbeke's system is not only durable but
environmentally friendly. The paint and sealers meet state and
federal clean air and water standards.
- Gear-Driven Raw Water Pump
A new gear-driven raw water pump, designed and manufactured by
Westerbeke for optimum performance, is made of marine grade
materials for the best possible corrosion protection.
Full Torque Power Take-off Interface
All the Century Series generators have Westerbeke's renowned full
torque take-off interface at the rear of the generator.
- Engine Instrumentation Panel
A unit-mounted instrument panel includes water temperature and oil
pressure gauges, voltmeter and hourmeter as well as preheat and
start/stop switches. All panels are provided with a standard
15-pin, plug in connector should a remote instrument panel or
start/stop panel be required.
- Emission Standards & Regulations
All Century Series engines meet current EPA standards and have the
"CE" mark.

Optional Equipment
- Full Torque Power Take-Off with Electric Clutch
All Century Series generators are available with full torque power
take-off and electric clutch for hydraulic pumps used to power bow
thrusters and other hydraulic equipment. The PTO and electric
clutch is available in both 12 and 24 volts (400 series and 1000
series)
- Electrical Systems
All generators are available with 24 volt electrical systems as
well as ungrounded 12 and 24 volt electrical systems.
- Remote Panels
Remote start-stop panel or second instrument panel available with
15 pin, 15 or 30 foot harnesses. Harnesses are equipped with
Westerbeke's standard remote connector for extended lengths.
- Electronic Governing for Parallel Operation
Allows for automatic or remote adjustment of engine speed for
paralleling and load sharing during operation.
|
- AC Instruments
Remote mounted AC voltmeter, ammeter, phase selector switch (3
phase only) and frequency meter.
- Paralleling Switchboard
Complete system for manual paralleling or automatic paralleling.
- Westerbeke Patented Sound Guard
Sound Guard sound enclosures are available for all models and are
made of self-supporting panels that attach to the standard
generator base with no increase to the length or width of the
unit. The rear panel of the sound guard is equipped with a
removable plate to accept the optional power take-off and electric
clutch. Individual panels can be easily removed for routine
inspection or all panels for major service.
- Also Available
Other options such as keel cooling with dry or wet exhaust, spare
parts kits, battery splitters, remote lube oil filters, fuel-water
separators with filter, hydro-hush mufflers and anti-syphon valves
with stainless loops are also offered.
