Generators Types and Features

We recommend diesel due to their longevity and lower operating costs;

1. 1800 rpm water cooled diesel operate on average 20-30,000 hours before major engine maintenance is required.

2. 1800 rpm water cooled gas normally operate 6-10,000 hours because they are built on a lighter duty gasoline engine block.

3. 3600 rpm air-cooled gas engines are normally replaced – not overhauled at 500 to 1500 hours.

Because gas engines burn hotter (higher btu of the fuel), you will see significantly shorter lives. Our gensets are from the world’s top manufacturers. We offer products for high-end residential customers with larger homes to industrial and military customers seeking prime power or critical emergency backup generators.

Electric equipment is designed to use power with a fixed frequency: 60 Hertz (Hz) in the United States and Canada, 50 Hertz in Europe and Australia. The frequency output depends upon a fixed engine speed. To produce 60 Hz electricity, most diesel engines operate at 1800 or 3600 RPM. Each speed has its advantages and drawbacks. At 1800 RPM, four pole electric power sets are the most common and least expensive. They offer the best balance of noise, efficiency, cost, and engine life. At 3600 RPM, two pole generators are smaller and lightweight; they are best suited for portable, light-duty applications. In simple terms it’s like operating your car at 90 mph, versus 45mph — at 45mph your car will last longer; it is quieter, requires less maintenance, and has a longer life. Most 3600 rpm gensets are twin cylinder air-cooled lawn mower engines, while the water cooled 1800 rpm units are comparable to those found in diesel forklift and diesel tractor engines. The 1800 rpm water cooled engine will last longe r, offerless maintenance problems, and be more fuel efficient. We recommend diesel!
