Looking for help regarding an alternator.

Unread post by atr »

Hi, came to my possession an alternator. the only thing I know about it that it's manufactured by Valeo. there is no (at least I didn't found and I looked thoroughly) model number on it. I don't know from which vehicle it was dismantled. all I can see that it has two terminals, +B and +D. attached a picture of the back cover.
I hope that a forum member will be able to identify it and maybe provide a drawing how to connect it. I don't want to install it in a vehicle but an electric motor to drive it.

No that will be impossible!

Valeo make thousands of different alternators for the automotive industry and appearances are no way to identify the models as they will vary in shape, design, type (reversing or not), output, and components used. Without a code number, there's no way to identify it.
