Sutton’s environmental solution
Sutton Power Engineering, a specialist generator manufacturer, has developed a series of products designed to address environmental issues such as fuel economy, noise levels and emissions, to give more efficient operation. Its latest introduction is the Eco-Assist
power management unit, claimed to reduce generator running costs by up to 70%. Utilising the latest inverter/charger technology, it monitors electricity usage and ensures that the generator is only powered up during peak load applications. It manages demand by seamlessly switching between power stored in batteries and electricity produced by the generator.
New trio from JCB
JCB has unveiled three new models to join its existing line-up of 74 generators. Each is powered by the same JCB Dieselmax 4.8 litre four-cylinder engine, developed for low fuel consumption and offering a smaller footprint than six-cylinder power units, with similar performance. The new models include the G140X open structure machine, the G140QX, which has an enclosed soundproofed canopy, and the G130RX hire specification generator.

The complete unit is contained in a strong, metal housing with simple socket- in and socket-out connections, together with a clear control panel. The Eco-Assist can be mounted close to the generator or remotely as required.
According to MD Richard Sutton,
the device eliminates the need to have a generator running continuously on low loads. “We discovered that most welfare cabin or site generators typically run constantly and, more often than not, on a low load. This not only wastes fuel, but it also wears the engine. The Eco-Assist will automatically monitor the amount of power demanded and only start the generator when its batteries become discharged, or at peak times, such as when heaters or cookers are switched on.”
