ES LOADBANK - Optimising Generator Capacity |
|||
|
Sizing generators for large sailing and motor yachts is a difficult job. Large variations in onboard power requirements between different seasons, different times of day, and periods with and without guests make for substantial power requirement swings. Often, despite the very best engineering practice, the yacht will be operating the generators lightly loaded. To address this problem the Energy Solutions’ in-house design and engineering team have developed the new ES LoadBank to be used with generators that are running under capacity. In order to get the maximum life expectancy from a generator it should ideally run at sufficient load to ensure clean running. When a generator runs under capacity it’s working life is cut short and the generator runs with soot emissions. The ES LoadBank is a sophisticated generator loading system that ensures that a sufficient base load is applied to the generator at all times. It uses electrical heaters as a load and this heat is discharged overboard via heat exchangers. The principle is simple – the control is sophisticated. Energy SolutionsEnergy Solutions are based in Rochester, Kent UK and are specialists in marine power and panel building. With an in-house research and design team, specialist engineers and a full technical back up team, they have established a reputation for innovative quality products. The ES LoadBank is built by their in-house engineering team and supplied to superyachts worldwide.
