Indispensable power sources: Protecting Gas and Diesel Generators from Fires
Emergency power supply is a key driver behind the adoption of stationary diesel generators. They become vital in locations demanding uninterrupted power, such as hospitals, universities, laboratories, data centers, industrial facilities, resorts, and correctional facilities. The widespread embrace of diesel engine generators can be attributed to several factors, including their widespread availability, ease of servicing, cost efficiency (thanks to readily available and inexpensive diesel fuel), and lenient enclosure requirements.
In this dynamic landscape, these generators serve as indispensable power sources, adapting seamlessly to diverse environments.
The Fire Risk
- Diesel fuel and engine heat, especially around the exhaust manifold and muffler, can easily initiate combustion.
- Additional factors like moving parts, lubricants, hoses, wiring, and instrumentation further contribute to the fire risk.
- Placing these elements within an enclosure increases the potential for a significant fire hazard.
- Business interruption, stemming from prolonged downtime or the inability to obtain emergency power, can incur even higher costs.
- Power interruption, in critical facilities like hospitals without backup power, may lead to severe consequences, including loss of life.
