Integrated Generators
Generator and fuel storage specified and delivered as one system, from 20kVA with 2,000L to 500kVA with 25,000L, sized on the runtime you have to guarantee.
Definition
Power and fuel as one system
Buying a generator and a fuel tank separately leaves someone to work out whether they match. An integrated generator is specified as one system: the set, the storage, the transfer and the monitoring, sized against the runtime the site has to guarantee.
That runtime is the number that matters. A 100kVA set will run for very different periods depending on what sits behind it, so the storage is sized on hours at rated load rather than on the generator rating alone.
Automatic start, stop and load transfer mean the system takes over without intervention, and monitoring reports its state before it is needed rather than during an outage.
Sizing
Configurations and what they suit
| Generator + storage | Runtime and use |
|---|---|
| 20 - 100kVA + 2,000 - 5,000L | 48 to 120 hours continuous at rated load. Essential services and small commercial |
| 100 - 500kVA + 10,000 - 25,000L | 7 to 14 days continuous with comprehensive load management and remote monitoring |
Specification
How it is built
Specified together so the two halves actually match.
| Generator set | Sized to the load, not to the tank |
| Fuel storage | Sized to the runtime the site has to guarantee |
| Transfer | Automatic start, stop and load transfer |
| Monitoring | Alarms on the smaller builds, remote management on the larger |
| Load management | Comprehensive on the larger systems |
Process
Installation and ongoing support
Our engineers start by evaluating your site conditions and requirements, then the system is specified to those exact needs. Certified installers handle the setup, and everything is tested and commissioned before handover.
Every installation is handed over with complete compliance certificates and operating manuals, which is what keeps the site audit-ready and the installation insurance-compliant. Professional engineering certification is available where a site or an insurer asks for it.
After handover we run annual compliance inspections, preventive maintenance programmes, emergency repairs, and upgrade or modification work, through an Australia-wide service network.
Applications
Where it is used
Sites where an outage has a cost per hour.
