'''Phase pulse generators''' are a primary component of the firing mechanisms of the [[Halo Array]]. They amplify the firing signal of an installation, allowing it to destroy all life across large areas of the galaxy. They are usually located within the vicinity of the [[Control Room]] of the installation, and the generator chambers are usually only accessible by air or via ducts used by the [[Sentinels]].<ref name="tb">'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', [[campaign]] level ''[[Two Betrayals (Level)|Two Betrayals]]''</ref> They can be overloaded through close-range [[electromagnetic pulse]] discharges.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', ''page 268''</ref> | '''Phase pulse generators''' are a primary component of the firing mechanisms of the [[Halo Array]].

It is not known where [[Installation 05]]'s phase pulse generators are, though they are likely to be located in the vicinity of the control room similar to the generators of Installation 04. During the fight between the [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]] and [[Tartarus]], 343 Guilty Spark states that the "primary generators are coming online", implying that the installation's firing system is similar to that of Installation 04.<ref>'''[[Halo 2]]''', campaign level ''[[The Great Journey]]''</ref> | It is not known where [[Installation 05]]'s phase pulse generators are, though they are likely to be located in the vicinity of the control room similar to the generators of Installation 04.

Two of the pulse generators of [[Installation | Two of the pulse generators of [[Installation 04B]] were encountered by John-117 during the [[Raid on Installation 04B]]. They were similar in overall shape to those of the original installation, aside minor differences such as more barriers placed in the perimeter, preventing the player from destroying them.<ref name="h3">'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[Halo (Halo 3 level)|Halo]]''</ref> | ||
