General information
Standard generators for electrical power supply where the mains supply is not accessible/reliable. The same generators are available for 120/200V, 60hZ.
Different engines are presented, they are the recommended standards. Other brands can also be the preferred choice according to the regional availability, and standards already in place. Supply of spare parts and technical support for maintenance and repair are major issues in the long run.
The power of the standard engines is adapted for use at 150m ASL altitude and 30°C ambient. If the conditions of use are more severe (higher altitude and/or hotter temperature), specify on your order the altitude and the ambient temperature.
Technical knowledge required to calculate the total power needs and to choose the generator accordingly.
Fast calculation rule for fuel consumption: Above 6KVA consumption in L/h is 10% to 20% of the genset capacity in KVA.
A circuit change over switch (Main/Off/Generator) is included in the set to adapt the generator onto an existing circuit already supplied from the mains.
Noise reduction canopy is recommended in all cases. Different levels of noise reduction are available at different costs. Industrial type (standard) is not recommended in residential area. Above prices include standard noise reduction canopy.
Should always be supplied with a first maintenance set of 5 air filters, 10 fuel filters, 10 oil filters.
