Don't wait until the power goes out to learn that your generator isn't working properly! Even if you test run your generator regularly, there can still be problems that won't appear until your generator is run with a load.
Generators are a key part of many industry backup power systems. Load banks are used to verify the power output from new generators once they are placed on location. Though generators are tested at the factory, it is important to re-test the generator on site. Variables with fuel systems, exhaust systems, cooling systems, regulator and governor systems, as well as altitude and ambient temperature factors can affect generator performance. Additionally, routine testing for the life of the generator is imperative to achieve a system you can depend on.
WPERI offers testing from 100kw to over 2000kw, which allows the generator to be tested at its full rated capacity and checks the overall performance of the engine and generator set. Load Bank Testing will reveal any potential problems related to fuel system contamination, cooling system degradation, and diesel engine “wet-stacking” are common reasons to conduct regular testing. by monitoring and measuring coolant and oil temperatures, voltage, amps, available KW output and generator temperature, this evaluation of your equipment's overall condition allows us to make necessary maintenance or repair recommendations and provide repair options.
Load test your generator set for your peace of mind. Call us today to schedule a load bank test!
