2MVA DIESEL GENERATOR INSTALLATION AT PRINCE CHARLES HOSPITAL
INTRODUCTION
Prince Charles Hospital is a district general hospital in Gurnos, Merthyr Tydfil, Wales. WB Power Services were appointed to supply, install, test and commission a brand new power solution for the hospital. Supplying back-up power to existing and new facilities within the hospital, WB Power had to ensure the provision of care was not affected and also to provide scalability, making sure any power infrastructure implemented was compatible with the hospitals requirements following the hospitals building expansion plans.
GENERATOR INSTALLATION
A 2000kVA Kohler-SDMO 65dBA prime rated generating set was installed on-site
SOUND RESTRICTIONS
The generator was packaged in a custom designed container rated to achieve a noise level of 70dBA @ 1m
FUEL MANAGEMENT SOLUTION
The new generator set was designed to link into an existing fuel distribution system connected to a bulk tank.
OVERVIEW
PROJECT BRIEF
The installation package provided by WB Power Services included a difficult off load and positioning process of the generator. It would also need to link into the incumbent fuel distribution system connected to a bulk tank, as well as upgrade to the switchgear and control system, along with installation of all necessary interconnecting power and control cables.
SOLUTION & RESULT
WB Power Services supplied, installed, tested and commissioned a new 2000kVA Kohler-SDMO generator for Prince Charles Hospital, which ensured a reliable back-up power source for existing and new facilities within the hospital. The generators are housed in close fit factory built enclosures that were engineered to fit within a newly created but very compact compound area.
The generating sets were supplied with the ComAp control system which ensured that the set could be synchronised to the main for softmains return. The generator was packaged in a custom designed container rated to achieve a noise level of 70 dBA @1m.
