Phase Pulse Generators are devices built by the Forerunner into their Halo installations. Halo's main weapon is powered by three phase pulse generators. They amplify Halo's signal, and allow it to fire deep into space. The power levels are enormous. How they produce such prodigous amounts of energy is unknown.
They are susceptible to close range EMP discharges, and destabilize if they come in contact with an EMP pulse. They are usually located within the vicinity of the Control Room of the Halo instillation, and the Generator Chambers are usually only accessable by air or via ducts used by the Sentinels.
Cortana had the Master Chief disable these while on Installation 04, in order to delay the Instillation's activation so they would have time to destroy it.
