English term
spar machine
English to German
Tech/Engineering
The task of this circuit is to create a constant 12 V direct current from a variable amplitude and frequency of alternating quality, in order to achieve a stable onboard supply on the spar machines.
Sadly I have no more context where the term "spar machines" appears.

A name?
....as in "*S*par"?
The only references I can find to "spar machines" are to machines used for cutting spars, e.g. cross-spars for telephone poles or for boats' masts. And these are in the US.

I\'ve scanned the Mondo web-site, and it doesn\'t seem to give any indication of the need for an on-board power supply. If it were a motor-bike, then it might be a current smoother in the line to powering the lights, but here - well, I\'ve no clue!

Another possibility MIGHT be a Typo for \"spur machine\". I\'m still not at all confident; but isn\'t a spur machine sometimes used to drive something else - as an accessory could be a possibility?

Zuendanlage
Koennte es sein, dass es eigentlich "spark machine" stehen sollte, was, sagen wir, die Anlage die die Zuendkerzen mit Strom versorgt, ist?

: I wish I could agree here, but in BE, I've never, ever, heard one called a "spark machine"
