Air-cooled or water-cooled

Air-cooled generators rely on air to provide cooling for the generator. There are no components other than the use of an air intake system. Water-cooled generators rely on water for cooling and contain a separate system to perform this function. Water-cooled generators require more maintenance than air-cooled generators.

 

Power Output

Diesel generators have a wide range of power output and can be classified accordingly.3 kVA diesel generators can be used to run power tools or appliances such as alternators, computers, multiple ceiling fans, etc. They are suitable for small offices, stores and homes. While 2000 kVA diesel generators are suitable for large industries or where there is a high demand for electricity.

 

Power Supply

It is important to know the requirements of a home/business before purchasing a diesel generator. Depending on the needs of the premises, generators from 2.5kVA to over 2000kVA can be used.
