Atlas Copco launches new QAC 800 generator

To fulfil the demand in the market for 800 kVA electrical power, Atlas Copco has upgraded its popular QAC 750 generator to the QAC 800. The new QAC 800 delivers 800 kVA of prime power at 50 Hz to meet increasing demands from generator users in the market. It has a MWM engine of model type TCD 2016 V12.

Designed to provide exceptional performance in all weather conditions, Atlas Copco’s QAC series generators are built to withstand the most extreme temperatures. A built-in engine coolant heater ensures quick and easy start-up in cold conditions, while a variable speed electric cooling fan allows continuous operation in deserts and other environments with consistently high temperatures. Designed with safety in mind, all QAC series generators have a four-pole main motorised circuit breaker to provide overload and short circuit protection, an emergency stop, and automatic engine alarms and shut-downs. The generators are also equipped for safe operation at refineries and other petroleum plants, and comply with all EC safety regulations.
With its ”whisper quiet” sound levels, the QAC series generators are perfectly suited for operations in the most noise-sensitive of environments. The double-skinned and removable fuel tank with leakage sensors and spillage-free frame construction prevents accidental engine fluids or fuel spills, eliminating the risk of any ground pollution.
Easily handled by crane, lift or truck, the generator’s robust 20-ft CSC ISO container enclosure has lockable wide-opening doors so that all components are always within reach for easy, stress-free service and maintenance.
The innovative dual compartment design, with the engine/alternator compartment separated from the cooler compartment, ensures maximum efficiency while operating in the most extreme conditions. A separated power cubicle, opposite to the control cubicle, achieves a safer operation.
The state-of-the-art Atlas Copco Qc 4002£ control panel includes features such as an LCD screen with numerous read-outs, warnings and shutdowns. The screen can be programmed to display this information in multiple languages.
The high-tech generator controller can handle a wide variety of applications and scenarios, from “island operation” and “automatic mains failure” to the most complicated paralleling operations such as “load sharing,” “peak shaving” and “base load.”
This multi-purpose control system makes the Atlas Copco QAC series generator an outstanding, easy-to-operate machine, offering a single solution to the most varying and challenging applications.
