Backup Generators for Commercial Facilities
Manufacturing and industrial facilities need backup generators to help prevent downtime. Adopting the right emergency power solution lets your manufacturing operation and warehouse system remain safe and productive.
When your manufacturing operations use an automated emergency power system, it protects your commercial building and those inside it. A sudden loss of power can cause equipment malfunctions that result in worker injuries. A generator wired in with an automatic transfer switch provides vital protection by ensuring a continuous, uniform power solution.
Backup power also maintains company production schedules. A power outage could mean work stoppages, but not if your company has a backup system in place.
Installing an emergency power solution protects a company’s valuable machinery from damage, too. When a manufacturing plant loses power, all machines stop suddenly. There’s no cycling down process, so they don’t go through the appropriate shutdown procedure. The manufacturing facility’s expensive equipment comes to a sudden, grinding halt that can cause costly damage.
A power outage can damage the products in the manufacturing process. A milk packaging plant would need to throw out all products affected by a power outage; car parts could get crushed; plastic pieces would break. Your manufacturing operations lose inventory when an outage occurs.
Electrical outages hurt employee satisfaction. Power outages cause frustration and stress. Trying to make up for the lost productivity can mean working overtime or extra days. That cuts into employee free time, reducing their morale. Providing an automated emergency generator can keep employees feeling positive by ensuring work goes as planned.
Knowing the dangers of power outages in a manufacturing facility lets your company prepare for them. According to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC), emergency diesel generators provide the main source of standby power in today’s industrial climate. If a diesel generator doesn’t fit your manufacturing facility’s sustainability plans, consider natural gas generators or a pre-charged uninterrupted power supply (UPS) system.
