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?

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.
