Bofa Power supplies diesel standby generator sets from 10–3000 kW for industrial, commercial and infrastructure applications. Generator capacity, electrical configuration, fuel storage and control systems are selected according to the site's actual load and operating conditions.
The Need for Standby Power
Power interruptions can stop production, interrupt IT systems, disable HVAC and pumping equipment, and affect essential building services.
For facilities where these interruptions have operational or financial consequences, standby generation provides an independent source of power for designated loads during a utility failure.
Typical applications:
Manufacturing plants
Data centers
Commercial buildings
Hospitals and critical facilities
Infrastructure facilities
Load Profile
Identify which loads must remain operational and their actual running demand.
Motor Starting
Motors, pumps and compressors can require significantly higher current during startup.
Transfer Requirements
The ATS must coordinate correctly with the generator controller and facility distribution system.
Backup Runtime
Fuel capacity must correspond to the required operating duration and refueling conditions.
Installation Conditions
Ventilation, exhaust, ambient temperature, altitude and noise restrictions can affect the generator configuration.
Our Standby Power Approach
