The design of generator sets for the healthcare sector must meet many criteria, but there are two without which achieving optimum performance would be virtually impossible: power and silence.

Genesal Energy Health generator sets complies with both – high power and soundproofing – ensuring normal operation in the event of any power failure or incident.

One of our latest projects has been delivered for the United Kingdom, reinforcing the power supply for Eastbourne Hospital, in the Southeastern County of East Sussex.

Power

The town of Eastbourne has a population of almost 100,000 and its hospital is a speciality centre that covers the demand of not only the city but also the small surrounding towns, making it one of the main health facilities in the county.

The project developed by our engineering department consisted of extending the emergency network designing, manufacturing and commissioning two new powerful and silent hospital generators, guaranteeing an average sound pressure level of 75 decibels at one metre at all times.

As with other special turnkey projects, the generator sets at Eastbourne Hospital have a number of features that set them apart. These are the main ones:

FEATURES:

Walls fitted with high-thickness acoustic panels and a synthetic foil for special soundproofing, guaranteeing also EI120 fire resistance.
Outlet Air silencers fitted to the container and Inlet Air silencers integrated into the container.
Mitsubishi S16R PTA engine fitted with a Mecc Alte ECO46 2S4A alternator on a base frame.
Certified 1000-litre double-walled (steel-steel) tank inside the container.
Exhaust gas silencers providing -40 dB attenuation.
C5 paint surface treatment, according to ISO12944.
Automatic fuel transfer system.
Special power outlet busbars for coupling to the busbar trunking system.
Motorised air inlet and outlet louvers and indoor space heaters.

Infallible power for extreme security at a hospital in Germany

Hospitals are critical infrastructures because of their great importance to society.

They require special security measures in areas such as the power supply, key in the operation of these buildings. Electricity can never fail.

Genesal Energy specialises in offering the healthcare sector highly innovative energy solutions with all the warranties in terms of design, manufacture and maintenance. Machines capable of starting up in record time – in the event of a failure in the network – securing the operation of ORs, ICUs and other equipment.

The high quality and innovation of our own-manufactured generator sets has led us to design projects for hospitals all over the world and one of the latest orders has been for the Lukas Neuss one in Germany.

With 13 specialities and a staff of almost 1,000 professionals, this leading hospital is located in Neuss, a city of more than 150,000 inhabitants in the Westphalia region. Genesal Energy has reinforced the safety of the facilities designing, manufacturing and commissioning an emergency power unit. Among many other features, it complies with local emissions’ standards for combustion engines and water protection and is suitable for operation at low temperatures.

What makes it so special? Stage V generators

The generator set designed for the Neuss hospital has a latest-generation Stage V engine with particles filter, catalytic converter and urea system to comply with the demanding German emissions regulations. The machine must also be fitted with trays to collect any type of polluting liquid such as fuel, oil, coolants, etc.

In addition, it is equipped with leak detection systems to prevent spillage and motorised louvers and interior heating to ensure start-up in adverse weather conditions.
