14 QAS 500s efficiently power large airports!
Home power outage is not terrible, airport power outage is terrible airport construction power supply can not be underestimated. Therefore, powerful, stable performance generator can be used as a safe airport construction of electricity, that diesel generator in the airport construction application of what precautions?
As a standby power supply, the unit should have the characteristics of fast starting, reliable operation, good speed regulation, low failure rate, low noise, low vibration, small volume, light weight, easy maintenance and so on. Ensure that the unit can be started immediately when the utility power supply is interrupted, emergency response.
For the construction of a large airport, the contractor needed to come up with a solution to the problem of powering the airport offices and other facilities, for which they were expected to prepare a proposal for four large generators: two 1,500 KVA generators and two 2,000 KVA generators.
When the customer approached Atlas Copco, one of the key requirements was to take complete responsibility for the project, including the machine, technical support during installation, four switchboards for cable connections, maintenance and buy-back after the project.
In order to satisfy the client's desire to outsource everything without worry, a more energy-efficient alternative was proposed, stepping out of the fixed mindset of the original design of four large generators: fourteen 500KVA QAS 500 generators.
The 14 QAS500 small generators are quieter, have a lower environmental impact and lower fuel consumption, effectively utilising different unit numbers to supply power and all using the same warranty parts, which can help the customer save money and reduce maintenance. In addition, by splitting the four large machines into multiple smaller ones, the need for post-project buy-backs can be met, so Kirkham's proposal stood out from the crowd of competitors and was recognised by the customer.
