Guide to avoiding pitfalls in the procurement of generator sets: saving money may ruin the entire plant

When you are preparing to purchase generator sets, do you find that the prices of products with the same power differ by several times? Many users are puzzled: "Although they are all 500kW units, why do some sell for 100000 yuan while others charge 300000 yuan? ”Today, we uncover the truth behind the price for you!

1、 Core components determine 'value'

The core cost of a generator set is concentrated in two major components: the engine and the generator. The engines of international top brands such as Cummins and Perkins use precision casting technology, which is wear-resistant and has a long service life. However, some low-priced products use refurbished or low-quality parts, which can easily cause problems such as cylinder pulling and knocking during operation. The material difference of stator winding in generator sets is more obvious - copper wire motors have strong conductivity and low temperature rise, while aluminum wire or copper-clad aluminum motors have high resistance and are prone to overheating, which may pose a fire risk if used for a long time.

2、 The invisible 'technological divide'

High end units are equipped with intelligent control systems that can achieve remote monitoring, fault prediction, energy-saving frequency regulation, and other functions, reducing fuel consumption by more than 20%; However, low-cost units only retain basic start stop functions and lack safety protection modules. A certain factory once suffered losses of over one million yuan due to a sudden surge in power caused by a low-priced unit, which is a painful lesson from the technical shortage.

3、 The service cost is hidden in the details

Legitimate manufacturers provide on-site installation and debugging, annual inspections, 2-hour emergency response services, and promise to replace core components free of charge during the warranty period. And low-priced suppliers often buy and sell with a single blow, shifting the blame after a malfunction. A customer once reported that after purchasing a low-priced unit and waiting for repairs for more than 72 hours, all the goods in the refrigerated warehouse deteriorated.

4、 The certification standard is a hard threshold

Units that have passed ISO 8528 international silent certification have noise levels controlled within 65 decibels and can be used in close proximity to residential areas; Products that fail to meet the standard may face environmental penalties if their noise level reaches up to 90 decibels. In addition, units that meet the National III emission standards are 15% more expensive than ordinary models, but their carbon emissions are reduced by 80%, avoiding the risk of environmental restrictions on production.

At present, the generator market in Shandong is mixed with good and bad products, and there are even many informal small workshops in the market. Therefore, when purchasing Shandong generators, it is necessary to consult professional manufacturers, including product configuration and price, after-sales service projects, etc. We guarantee the quality of our products and will definitely choose OEM manufacturers for generators. We refuse to refurbish machines or second-hand phones.
