Can Diesel Generators Save Your Equipment Expenses

On-site power generation means your facility is protected from outages due to severe weather, natural disasters and other unforeseen circumstances. This means it's a greener practice, more environmentally friendly and more sustainable in the long run.

If your plant, no matter the size, currently buys power from a local utility, such as a diesel generator, here's some good news: Generating your own electricity on-site can save you money! Some of the ways your institution can benefit from on-site power generation include:

Savings: It may be cheaper to generate your own electricity than to buy electricity from outside. In addition to the initial savings from on-site electricity generation, your facility may also choose to utilize the heat generated by electricity generation. This, in turn, saves on other methods of maintaining heating facilities, such as gas bills typically used to maintain heated buildings.

Control: By generating your own electricity, your company will gain control over every aspect of your energy. You will be able to improve power quality by updating your system. By installing a diesel generator on site, you can keep an eye on the process and gain first-hand insight into where and how electricity comes from.

Reliability: On-site power generation means your facility is safe from outages due to severe weather, natural disasters and other unforeseen circumstances. Traditionally, power grids have allowed power to be transported over long distances. This means that even if a severe storm isn't in your area, but it affects your power, it could equate to a disaster. In addition to having a generator to reduce reliance on external power sources, it also ensures that your facility never loses power.

Sustainability: On-site generation is more efficient than outsourcing. Less energy is lost during transmission from power to equipment; your company can also directly choose how to generate electricity. This means it's a greener practice, more environmentally friendly and more sustainable in the long run.

Energy saving through temperature control: We chose a digital temperature controller with better performance, and then selected components such as high-current relays and chassis to assemble a digital temperature controller that is easy to install and operate. The temperature sensor of the thermostat has a measurement accuracy of 0.1°C, high accuracy and simple adjustment. In order to ensure the success of each start of the unit, we have carried out repeated field tests on the setting temperature of the thermostat, and then selected it as 8°C and the temperature difference as 3°C, that is, when the temperature probe of the digital thermostat is used. When the temperature at the measuring point is measured to be lower than 5°C, the control relay turns on the heater power to heat the body. When the temperature at the measuring point reaches 8°C, the control relay turns off the heater power and stops heating. When the temperature falls below 5°C again, a new cycle starts again.

Because the temperature probe of the digital temperature controller cannot be at the same measurement point as the original temperature probe of the generator set, that is, the heat dissipation rates of the two measurement points are different, and the temperature display of the generator should prevail (if the generator set, such as Cummins generator, only If the temperature above 40°C is displayed, then only the temperature display of the digital temperature controller shall prevail). After the actual use from 2012 to 2013, when the thermostat is set to 5~8* C, the temperature display of the generator is basically 6~10°C (the outdoor temperature is milder) and 11~16°C (the outdoor temperature is relatively mild). Very low), all meet the temperature required for the generator set-- one start, and can achieve a successful start every time.
