Overview

BC460-H saves both weight AND money – without sacrificing performance or reliability. Rather than following the “Bigger is Better” line of thinking, the BC460-H has been designed for superior efficiency (maximum output-per-pound). With modern avionics and LED lighting, aircraft electrical systems are becoming more frugal than ever. What is needed is not a bigger alternator, but rather, a better alternator – one with genuine quality, durability, and efficiency.

The BC460-H is built with that in mind, featuring heavy-duty sealed ball bearings, two internal cooling fans, and a precision dynamically-balanced rotor (rare in the industry, but standard on every B&C!). More than that, it has three attachment points for stable mounting, and provision for external, aircraft-style alternator control with over-voltage protection.

The BC460-H may be used in either a 14 volt or 28 volt electrical system, and includes your choice of Boss (Wide Deck) or Case (Narrow Deck) mounting brackets, attachment hardware, belt tension arm, high-performance belt, and pre-wired field connector assembly. Weight: 7.1 lbs.

The Boss Mount BC460-H mounts on the machined pad on the bottom of the engine opposite the starter and uses a U-shaped bracket and two 5/16" national coarse bolts.

NOTE:
L-40, BC460-H, BC410-H, and BC462-H alternators require external regulators - use: P/N 07-06742 (LR3C) for 14V Primary, P/N 07-06786 (LS-1A) for 28V Primary, P/N 07-03461 (SB1B-14) for 14V Standby, and P/N 07-03462 (SB1B-28) for 28V Standby.

Q: Does the boss mount alternator come with boss mount bracket, belt tension arm and mounting hardware?

Yes, the 07-17981 comes with the boss mount, tension arm, belt, and attaching hardware.

Q: What is the difference between part number 07-17982 and 07-17983. I have 0320-B3B LYCOMING EXPERIMENTAL RV6, NARROW DECK ENGINE CASE MOUNT. BUT, I DO NOT HAVE B&C STARTER BUT SKYTECK ONE. SO DO I NEED 07-17983 IN MY CASE FOR THE ALTERNATOR. THANKS

You would need the case mount option(07-17982) for a narrow deck. 07-17983 is the boss mount option for wide deck engines.

Q: What is the physical size of this CH460-H Alternator? Im wanting to make sure it will fit on a Vans RV-7

Approx 5-1/2 x 7-1/2 x 4.

Q: What is the current output of the BC 460-h?

That is a 60 amp alternator.

Q: Can these be used on certificated aircraft are they STCd?

No, these are not intended for use on certified aircraft.
