Used and surplus generators are a great way to save money and still get a quality machine. Since generators are so durable and long-lasting, even well-maintained used generators have a lot of life left in them.
Reputable generator suppliers will have checked the unit over for issues and reviewed the maintenance log and possibly even have made necessary repairs before they put the generator up for sale.
As long as you have a maintenance record and know the history of the generator, there is no reason to shy away from used generators. Surplus generators offer similar benefits but without any or with very few running hours on the machine. There are many generator suppliers in the U. If you plan to buy a generator as a business asset and a way to keep your doors open during an emergency, take your time and work with a dealer, broker, or supplier that has many years of experience.
Find a seller who can answer your questions, assess your situation, and guide you to the best purchasing decision based on your specific needs. We sell used generators and surplus generators that have undergone a rigorous inspection and testing to small businesses and Fortune companies alike all across the U.
To learn more about our services and inventory or call us at to discuss your needs with one of our project managers. I really appreciate your attention to the project as we approached the our dates. While I was initially concerned about studs remaining in the floor and small spills from the pipes as they were removed, I was very pleased to see that when you and your team had completed the job and we did our walk through, the floor areas were absolutely clean and safe with all traces removed.
It looked wonderful! I also appreciate the lengths you were willing to go to accommodate the circumstances of our move and timing. It was great to work with you on this project and I look forward to the opportunity to do so again, as we further rationalize our data center footprint.

The parts of a generator are: Engine. The engine supplies energy to the generator. The power of the engine determines how much electricity a generator can provide. This is where the conversion from mechanical energy to electrical energy occurs. Fuel System.
The fuel system makes it possible for the generator to produce the energy needed. The system includes a fuel tank, a fuel pump, a pipe connecting the tank to the engine, and a return pipe. A fuel filter removes debris before it gets to the engine and an injector forces the fuel into the combustion chamber.
Voltage Regulator. This component helps control the voltage of the electricity that is produced. It also helps convert the electricity from AC to DC, if needed. Cooling and Exhaust Systems. The engine is used to rotate the axle of an electrical conductor in a magnetic field which creates electricity. Alternator or genhead - creates the electrical output from the engine generated mechanical energy.
The mechanical energy is used to rotate a copper coil wrapped around an iron core inside powerful a permanent magnet or electric magnet. Brand Solutions. Video series featuring innovators.

When the test run indicates problems, there are a few things to check. With 12, starting watts, this dual fuel generator can run on propane or electric and has an electric start and low-oil shut off. This Champion is quieter and lighter than equally powerful generators and can be plugged into RV or home outlets or run on gas for up to 17 hours.
This compact generator with a one-gallon tank and variety of outlets is safe to use to charge electronics. With its remote key fob and easy push-button start, you can safely run this generator up to feet away from your home on gas or propane. Installing a 3-pole transfer switch should solve the problem.
If it doesn't, you have to hunt down the ground fault lurking somewhere in the electrical system. For example, you may have calculated the power draw of your well pump. If it turns out that the pump motor requires more power than you thought, stage your power consumption so that nothing else is drawing power or only minor power and allow the well pump to have complete access to the generator's full output when it charges the well tank.
The last thing you want is an under-voltage to big loads like the well pump, which will eventually damage it. Electric motors can surge up to three times their rated current during their first few seconds of startup. Inexpensive generators from companies you've never heard of may be lacking in the quality of their electrical output. For example, the generator produces volts, but not consistently.
That bad news gets even worse when the generator is undersized. Now its low power quality under normal operating conditions gets even worse as increased demand is placed on it. Both inexpensive consumer electronics that huge flat screen TV that was suspiciously inexpensive at a major retailer and major appliances often have poor power-filtering capability in their DC circuitry. They both may be vulnerable to the poor power quality produced by generators manufactured by fly-by-night companies.
The result will be damage to your appliances or electronics. Our advice is to stick with well-known generator brands, particularly those by manufacturers that belong to the Portable Generator Manufacturers Association. That's not a guarantee against power-quality problems, but it certainly improves the odds. Type keyword s to search.
