We are pleased to present another recent project designed and assembled successfully in just five weeks.
Some of the generator highlights include;
- Waukesha F11GSI 165kW continous power generator with Marathon Magnamax 432RSL4009 alternator end
- Structurally reinforced 20′L x 8′W x 9’6″H enclosure with 2″ sound attenuation / insulation, one man door, one double door with panic hardware, and checker-plate steel floor with containment tray
- ‘Draggable’ 30′ heavy duty oilfield skid with 18″ wide flange beam, corner posts, tow bars, chamfered ends, and cross bracing for a Waukesha VSG11GSI
- External remote mounted radiator – Young Touchstone VM19
- Step-down transformer for 120V house panel, wall receptacles and fluorescent lighting
- Deep Sea DSE7310 digital control system unit mounted
- 250A NEMA 1 wall mounted circuit breaker
- Air intake louver and thermostatically controlled building exhaust fan
- CATA-DYNE natural gas heating system
- External 30kW multi-step auto-sensing load bank to prevent under loading the generator
- MTE MATRIX Series D harmonic filter
- Kenco oil makeup system
- Gas train including high pressure regulator, safety shutoff solenoid, coalescing filter, and flex hose
Please contact us if you are interested in a similar package.
Why do you waste electricity intentionally using expensive resistances on heating up air (cooling fans). Cant you just adjust fuel supply to the engine running generator? This is XIX century method that should be forbidden by law in XXI century.
Stan,
Thank you for your comment!
We certainly do adjust the fuel depending on the load present. This is the standard practice for constant speed engines. The problem comes when you have a generator that is too large for the load on-site. In this case, we add artificial load (via a load bank) to make sure the engine is meeting it’s minimum load requirements.
There are scenarios which require an over-sized generator, such as planned expansion in the future, or loads which turn on and off sporadically. In these cases, the load bank is very beneficial for overall lifetime and operational cost of the engine.
For more information, please read our article on load banks.
