VariPower Variable speed hybrid power system VariPower Variable Speed Hybrid Generator
VariPower The Benefits The benefits of a variable speed hybrid generator Less Noise Fuel Saving Reduced Servicing Lower Emissions The generator is much quieter The generator is only running Because the generator only Because the batteries can when running at lower levels at the level needed therefore runs at the level needed, not power low loads (for example such as 900 rpm reducing it only uses the fuel needed at one constant high rate, at night time ) there are noise considerably. When only for that power demand, there it will not get to its service periods when the generator the batteries are supplying is no waste and costs are points as quickly which will does not need to run at all, power the unit is silent. significantly reduced. reduce overall maintenance therefore reducing carbon and service costs. emissions. Flexibility Transportable Intelligent Savings The unit can be used in Integral forklift pockets mean Built in intelligence means Overall the unit can reduce a multitude of different the VariPower can be easily the generator automatically costs on average by 56% 1 environments with any placed on a trailer or lorry adjusts the engine RPMs to compared to a standard 1500 demands, making it an ideal and delivered to site.

VariPower An Overview Variable speed hybrid power system VariPower is a variable speed generator combined with a highly efficient battery bank. Developed, designed and built in the UK, the range includes the VariPower 10 and 20. Both provide transportable, instant power for temporary, back-up and off grid situations in any environment. Unlike traditional generators which only run at one speed whatever the load demands, the variable speed generator is flexible and can run at any level between 900 and 2000 rpms; providing just enough power for the load and to charge/top up the batteries without any waste. When demands are low the generator will run at just 900 rpm, providing enough power for the load very quietly and using less fuel. For times when a higher load is demanded the generator can move up in speed to anything up to 2000rpm; delivering higher amounts of power, quickly and efficiently. The batteries within each unit act as an energy storage system; so at times of very low demand, or when completely silent power is required the batteries alone can run the load, the generator doesn t need to start at all. The built in intelligence of the system means the VariPower provides power in the most efficient way possible, with this functionality users can operate in the same way as a grid connection, no manual intervention is required.

VariPower Range of Applications Perfect for a range of applications This hybrid power unit has been designed to address a range of markets, from temporary sites to permanent off grid situations. It s efficiency and flexibility makes it suitable to: Temporary power Off Grid power Construction sites Rental applications Disaster Relief Industrial backup Telecom BTS sites 4 VARIPOWER - 2016
VariPower Mobile Power Solution Transportable Getting power to site in a time of need requires a solution that is easily deployable. In order to make the VariPower as easy to move as possible it has integral forklift pockets. This means it can be easily placed on a trailer or lorry and delivered to site. It is also available pre-mounted on a twin axle trailer. VARIPOWER - 2015 5
VariPower Additional Features Control Panel The proprietary control system offers a straightforward way to operate and control the VariPower with simple switches allowing operation of the key features. The display screen allows monitoring of all the relevant data from the generator, batteries and power equipment. This information can also be viewed remotely via an optional 3G internet connection allowing the reading to be seen on tablet, Pc or smart phone. The simple design makes it perfect for use in rental and temporary environments, whilst the remote access gives the flexibility for owners to see the details on the unit from wherever they are. Perkins Engine VariPower uses the Perkins 403D-11G ElectropaK - a powerful but quiet 1.1 litre naturally aspirated 3 cylinder compact engine designed to meet EU Stage IIIA/U.S. EPA Tier 4 interim emissions standards. The 3 cylinder engine is designed to meet power generation needs in both unregulated territories where extreme conditions are likely, and higher regulated territories with more stringent emissions standards. It was selected for the VariPower due to its power density, durability and fuel efficiency. The quiet operation makes it an excellent option as part of a unit designed to reduce noise to a minimum. 6 VARIPOWER - 2016
