Designed with safety in mind, all QAC series generators have a four pole main motorized circuit breaker, providing overload and short circuit protection, an emergency stop, automatic engine alarms and shut-downs and are standard-equipped with refinery equipment for safe operation at petroleum plants. The generators are entirely EC safety regulation compliant. With its ‘whisper quiet’ operational sound
levels, the QAC series generators are said to be perfectly suited for work in even the most noise-sensitive of environments, reports the manufacturer. The double-skinned and removable fuel tank
with leakage sensors and spillage-free frame construction prevents accidental engine fluids or fuel spills, eliminating the risk of any ground pollution. Easily handled by crane, lift or truck, the
robust 20ft CSC ISO container enclosure has lockable, wide opening doors so that all com- ponents are easily within reach. This helps to ensure that maintenance and service is both quick and stress-free. The innovative dual compartment design – with the engine/alternator compartment separated from the cooler compartment – ensures maximum efficiency while operating in the most extreme conditions. With the separated power cubicle, opposite to the control cubicle, a safer operation is achieved.

[Below} The Diesel KTA50-Series engine from Cummins which powers the QAC 1250: its pistons are dual Ni-resist, aluminum alloy, ground and shaped to compensate for thermal expansion which assures a precise fit at operating temperatures. Oil cooled for rapid heat dissipation. It uses an offset piston pin for reduced susceptibility to liner cavitation.
A state-of-the-art Atlas Copco Qc 4002™ control panel [right] includes features such as an LCD screen with numerous read-outs, warnings and shutdowns – all displayed in various local languages. Applications from Island Operation and
Automatic Mains Failure to the most complicated, paralleling operations such as Power Management System, or Peak shaving, Load Take-over and Transformer Maintenance operations, feature with this single, high-tech, heavy-duty generator controller. “This multi-purpose control system makes the QAC series generator an outstanding, easy- to-operate machine, offering a single solution for multiple applications," reports Atlas- Copco.
