Testing solutions from the world’s leading loadbank manufacturer. Load banks are used for the commissioning of new engines and turbines at island-operation, decentralised power plants, as well for power plant expansions.
Key Factors
- The vast majority of mining is off-grid. The engines are significant in size and value, and even though they are factory tested, they should be properly commissioned to ensure they are able to run effectively following transportation, and under actual site conditions.
- Running a generator on full load helps to avoid “wet stacking” where the engine’s performance is compromised by unburnt fuel, lubricating oil and condensation caused by a light load on the alternator and low engine temperature and exhaust gasses.
Crestchic plc (LON:LOAD) hires and sells specialist power reliability equipment. With a product range comprising a wide range of loadbanks and transformers and depots, offices or agents in the UK, USA, The Middle East, Belgium, Germany, France, Singapore, China and South Korea, Crestchic has a global customer base.
