The four new generators have 17 per cent lower specific consumption than other generators with the same power range, and a service interval that is 200 hours longer
Himoinsa is adding four new 600kVA models that can operate in any market to its series of generator sets with FPT engines. These new units offer significant competitive advantages over other generators of equal power, primarily in terms of fuel consumption and service intervals.
For the 50Hz market, the HFW-600 T5 and its rental version, the HRFW-600 T5, supply 600kVA in PRP and 659kVA in stand-by. For 60Hz markets, the series includes the HFW-550 T6 and HRFW-550 T6 models, with a power of 625kVA in PRP and 690kVA in stand-by.
The four models incorporate the new CR16TE1W engine from FPT. Their specific consumption is 191g/kWh, i.e. 115l/h at 100 per cent power, up to 17 per cent lower than other generator sets of similar power.
The service intervals are up to 200 hours longer than other generators. In addition, with an oil tank of 32 litres, they can operate continuously for 600 hours without needing an oil change.
The engine is more compact and allows for a smaller canopy to be used, which is easier to transport, fulfilling another requirement of the rental sector.
With this addition, Himoinsa's HFW series now ranges from 30kVA to 600kVA.
