Found a used, apparently quite old, generator for 540 PTO. Babson Brothers Co., Model 17970. 15KW, 115/230 volts. Babson has not existed since 1999. But they were the makers of Surge milkers. And maybe this unit was for farmers who might have power outage at milking time- or no electricity at all. Might have been above average quality. Runs quietly but voltage seems to not be stable. Didn't have much way to test that today as I looked at it at the seller's place.
Anyone know anything about this unit? Actually two generators running from one big gear box. Could some other company have been the manufacturer? Chances of finding parts if needed?
