5 Important Generator Accessories You Should Know About

From cords to mufflers that reduce noise, generator accessories come in a variety of beneficial forms. The best generator accessories vary based upon your needs, time of year, and so forth.  A generator can turn a bad day into a good day by keeping your power running even when the rest of the world seems to be in the dark.

When the main power grid shuts down, a generator is still able to produce and output energy.

Knowing the available accessories for generators can help you get the most value out of your generator. But first, it's important to understand the two main types of generators and what they offer.

The 2 Types of Generators

There are two general types of generators: standby generators and portable generators. Standby generators are larger and more powerful with the capacity to keep an entire business up and running in the face of a power outage. This is the more common option used by commercial locations during a power outage.

The other type of generator is a portable generator, a smaller portable option that offers a lot less power. Because they lack the same power as standby generators, they tend to run quieter and take up less space. Your typical portable generator can fuel a few basic home appliances, or around 1-2 rooms in a residential house. Portable generators are commonly used to fuel residential needs during a power outage. They are also popular features on camping trips.

5 Must-Have Generator Accessories

The following generator accessories are among the most valuable and important.

1. Power Cord for Generator

First thing's first, you're going to need a power cord. Different power cords offer better or worse delivery of electricity so a quality cord is important. A cord's power to delivery energy is determined by amp specifications, which must be in synch with the generator outlet's amp specifications. For instance, a 30-amp cord is not compatible with a 50-amp outlet. Cords come in a variety of lengths as well, so it's important to determine the size power cord you need.

2. Automatic Transfer Switch

An automatic transfer switch prompts the generator to turn on automatically when power to the main grid is lost. The switch turns off the electricity supply coming from the grid and switches over to the generator's power. When power is restored to the grid, the system automatically shuts down the generator and switches back to the power grid. This prevents downtime and makes it much easier to deal with a power outage. A standby generator gains a lot of value with the addition of a transfer switch. It is far rarer for portable generators to come with a transfer switch.

3. Muffler to Reduce Sound

Generators can get noisy and so like most other machines with a combustion engine, generators come with a muffler that'll exhaust fumes and limit engine noise. Different mufflers offer unique levels of sound reduction'some are far better than others. Newer and more advanced mufflers come with greater noise-reduction capabilities and can be added to generators if they are a compatible fit.

4. Protective Cover for Generator

Depending on where a generator is located and what time of year it is, a waterproof cover might be necessary to protect it against the elements. This keeps the generator dry and rust-free.

5. Maintenance Kits for Generators

Generators require maintenance just like any machinery. Generator maintenance kits typically come with oil, spark plugs, and an air filter.

Detailed Information About Marathon Generator End

Jan. 02,

Brief introduction of Shanghai Matahon Generator


Shanghai Marathon innovative Electric Co.,Ltd.introduces the design and manufacturing process technology of the Marathon Electric U.S.A so as to produce x the international advanced level of single/three-phase brush-less ac generator, with the generator voltage ranging from 110 V to 110 V and the capacity ranging from 5 kw to kw.The products are widely used in ordinary power supply, emergency power and special power supply, and they act as the main power supply or emergency power supply in railway, mining, hospital, house property, military industry,ships, reefer container, telecommunications, port machinery and key national projects.


 

MP series 500 frame three-phase brushless ac synchronous generator is a new type of brushless generator newly developed, modified and designed on the basis of MAGNAPLUS drawings provided by Marathon Electric U.S.A.

 

The MP series 500 frame generator and the diesel engine can be combined into the fixed or mobile power supply that is suitable for various occasions and can also be used as emergency power supply. MP series generators have unique design, advanced structure, good performance, reliable running and easy operation, which are suitable for various applications and climate conditions and also stand for the current advanced international level. 

Excellent electrical performance

1. Steady-state voltage regulation rate ' 1%

2, Transient-state regulating rate + 20% 15% Un (60%In.cosφ'0. 0.4 lag)

3. voltage regulating range'±10%Unz

4, sine distortion rate of line voltage waveform < 5%

5. Thermal deviation of zero (minimal)

Unique structure design

1. The generator is in a whole protection structure, and the internal ventilation and cooling structure is unique. Aluminum alloy fan brings in high ventilation rate and low temperature rise.

2. The brushless excitation mode is equipped with solid state voltage regulator.The voltage regulator comes with functions of low speed protection, electromagnetic interference suppression and excitation shut off, and it's also configured with stability adjustment and voltage amplitude adjustment.

3. The whole salient pole rotor structure, amortisseur winding and rotor core are connected together. The field winding adopts the thermosetting epoxy filler, with high mechanical and electrical strength.

4. The rotating rectifier is located in the lateral side of the exciter rotor, which is easy for maintenance.

5. Out of the box and spacious, can be mounted inside a variety of devices.Out of the box located above the back of the stand, compact and beautiful.

6. Insulation class is Class H.

7. Parallel operation module and additional devices can be provided as per the customer requirements.

8. The generator are divided into two structures: single bearing and double bearing.The single bearing one comes with a interface of international standard and a coupling piece, which can fit with all kinds of imported oil engine; double bearing adapts to the matching of all kinds of domestic diesel engines, and various sizes of flange seam allowance can be set up according to the demand of customers.

9. According to customer needs, PMG can be additionally added and DVRE digital voltage regulator can be used.

10. According to customer needs, condensation heating tube and the thermal protection components can be additionally added.

Working Conditions

Air temperature is less than:40'

Altitude does not exceed: meters

If the working conditions do not meet above environment, the power output quota must be corrected by the regulation.

Voltage, frequency, speed, power factor and working mode

Rated voltage:400 V, 480 V, 60 Hz)

Rated frequency:50 Hz or 60 Hz

Rated speed: revolutions per minute or revolutions per minute

Power factor:0.8 lag

Work style: continuous (S1)

According to customer needs, they can be made into products with different output voltage or other special requirements.

Parallel operation

MP generator can all be continuous and in parallel operation. In order to ensure the operating stability of generators, full damping windings are equipped on the rotors.

in parallel operation of generators, the distribution with power load is implemented by the speed regulators of the diesel engines, and the distribution without power load is implemented by the voltage regulator of the generators.

While the generators equipped with SE350 are in parallel operation, there must be APM parallel modules and 5VA current transformers, and voltage sag or cross flow compensation is used to guarantee the balance of the distribution without power load between parallel generators.

The generators equipped with PMG and DVRE voltage regulator only need to provide 5 va current transformer signal to voltage regulators, because the DVR voltage regulators contain the function of parallel operation.

Resistance to electromagnetic interference

The generators equipped with SE350 voltage regulators belong to the regular grade, but the generators equipped with DVRE digital voltage regulator are in accordance with grade MiL-461c.

Bearing

The bearings used by MP generator are double dust-proof rolling ball bearing, with one-time lubrication by special high performance grease. Under normal use, B10' hours.
