The system enables automatic start-up and operation of the generating set in the event of a mains power failure, overvoltage or loss of a mains automatic retransfer once it comes back.

What is the difference between the GFE Perkins PRO Powered diesel generator and the GFE Perkins Powered diesel generator?

The main difference between our two Perkins Powered collections is the canopy the generator is housed within. The GFE Perkins PRO generators have an updated canopy style. Visually the Perkins PRO range has a less angular design with rounded edges. The canopy has been carefully designed to reduce the volume of sound produced by the generator therefore reducing the impact of the generator on its surroundings. Silent diesel generators are an important part of a number of industries, the GFE Perkins PRO powered has a higher grade of sound proofing that uses rock wool to offer the optimised sound level possible in the most compact design.
