Atlas Copco introduces basic diesel generating sets

It has been designed for fast, easy and safe transportation and on-site handling on virtually any unprepared surface.
The actual QAS range has a proven track-record and already comprises a wide variety of models rated between 14 and 571kVA.
The standard specifications of what is known as the QAS flx variant, available first on 13 to 45kVA models, are more basic than those of the actual QAS range. Starting from these standard configurations though, end users can add a long list of options to meet their power demands.
Powered by a 3-4 cylinder, direct injection, turbocharged intercooled Kubota diesel engine, driving a Leroy Somer alternator, a high performance cooling concept is fitted to guarantee 100% prime power operation in high ambient temperatures up to 35° and 1000m altitude.
Housed in noise attenuated enclosures made from zinc plated powder coated steel, the QAS range is ideally suited for applications in noise sensitive areas.
Large access doors allow easy access to all service points and the generator components; making any preventative maintenance and repairs faster and easier.
External drain points are positioned to allow easy and efficient draining of oil, coolant and fuel with minimized risk of environmental spillage. Special drain points are also fitted to allow the fuel tank to be cleaned and water removed from the base frame; once again with minimal environmental impact.
A spillage free option offers a 110% containment base for all the necessary liquids.
