When it comes to purchasing either a diesel or gas generator, it can sometimes be tough to know which generator is the right option for you. Upon applying for a generator, many applications will require a
specific type of generator to be used and specify if it needs to be enclosed or able to be open. This can raise questions as to why this is required and within this article, we can explain in more detail by discussing the difference between all the options available.
With competitive price and timely delivery, Voltgent sincerely hope to be your supplier and partner.
Open-Sets
Open-set generators are possibly the main option for customers requiring a large power output from their generator, with the power range of these products being from 6KVA up to KVA for diesel generators, and from 10KW up to KW for gas generators. Generators from our open set range are mainly fitted in
prebuilt areas, such as basements, and are used to power various types of buildings such as leisure complexes and hospitals as a backup power supply should their main source of power fail, but some are used for prime power purposes as well. Our open set generators are powered by various well-known
brands such as Perkins, Cummins, Mitsubishi, MAN and PowerLink to name a few, and are joined with alternators from Leroy Somer, Stamford and PowerLink.
Canopy Sets
Canopy sets are the most well known generators due to them being seen by the public when used in the within the construction industry in order to power large construction equipment. This isn’t there only
use though, as they can be used as a backup power supply for some properties, due to them being housed within a soundproof canopy so that they can be used in public areas, as well as functioning as a prime power supply in some areas of the world. Fitted with PowerLink, Cummins, Perkins, Kubota, MWM and MAN engines, with Stamford, Leroy Somer and PowerLink alternators, these generators provide a power range of 6KVA to KVA for diesel generators, and 10KW to KW for Gas generators.
Containerised Sets
Containerised generators are used predominantly as a prime power supply, due to the sheer size of the container, and the power output available from these generators. With diesel generators, containerised sets are mainly used to provide power for large buildings such as office buildings or hospitals, but for gas powered generators a lot of customers will opt for a cogeneration unit due to them being able to provide a high power and heat output helping to save money across the domestic bills of the customers. Like the canopy sets, containerised generators are built to house the generators and ensure they are soundproof, which is completed by the containers being heavily fitted with soundproofing technology, and like the open sets can reach a high-poweroutput of KVA for diesel and up to KW for gas power.
All in all, the generators aren’t vastly different from one another, but the main thing they all have in common is they are more than capable to satisfy our customers needs.

Container diesel generator sets have exceptionally high reliability. Especially in areas where general commercial power supply (GRID) is unstable or prone to regular power outages. They are a reliable backup power source, because the diesel generator not only functions as an emergency power source but also optimise additional power to the site-load shedding capability.
Bespoke Power Systems
Completely bespoke solutions as well as to continually improve the noise reduction, our Backup power options that we design are bespoke to each site. Still after installation, regular maintenance is required to ensure 100% efficiency to keep the current solution a valuable of power continuity, site wide.
Eliminate ‘brownouts,’ (when sudden power causes disruption, ‘glitches’ as power drops out for milliseconds), as well as ‘power cuts’ that last for hours, by installed both UPS and automatic generator emergency power systems.
Advantages of container Diesel generator sets
Each container is bespoke built.
The company is the world’s best Containerised Diesel Generators supplier. We are your one-stop shop for all needs. Our staff are highly-specialized and will help you find the product you need.
They are weatherproof, low noise levels and better still you can walk inside to service the generator. Every diesel generator container has its own built in fuel tank, which makes the whole system transportable.
So why choose an industrial containerised diesel generator?
