Data Center Generator

Data Center Generator

Data center generators can start up on their own within 10-30 seconds of an interruption in the mains power supply, providing backup power to the data center room and ensuring continuous operation of critical loads such as servers, storage and network equipment.

China Data Center Generator Manufacturer

With the core advantages of continuous power supply, fast response, high load capacity, and low failure rate, Huaquan data center generator is one of the key equipment to guarantee the power supply of the data center.

Switch to the data center generator within 10 to 30 seconds after the power grid failure to ensure a continuous power supply for the UPS, which can guarantee the continuous operation of the data Center during the power grid outage.

High transient response capacity, supporting 100% load step, preventing server downtime.

Silent container design (≤75dB), in line with urban environmental protection requirements, to avoid noise disturbance to residents.

A8 cloud platform, remote monitoring, reduces the need for manual inspections and alleviates the problem of excessively high costs for manual maintenance.

Data Center Generator

For the backup power supply of the data center, it is recommended to calculate the total load design with a redundancy factor of 1.2 to 1.3 times.

Main Types of Data Center Generators

Diesel generators as data center generators: easy to store fuel, wide range of power (tens of kW to several MW), suitable for long-time operation, are the most common and are equipped with the most units.

Gas generators as data center generators: environmentally friendly, lower emissions, but dependent on pipeline gas supply and may be limited in times of disaster.

Main Types of Data Center Generators
Design Parameters for Data Center Generators

Design Parameters for Data Center Generators

Power capacity: need to cover the full load demand of the data center, and reserve space for future extra expansion (usually configured according to N+1 or 2N redundancy).

Start-up time: from power failure to full load operation is usually within 10-30 seconds, with UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) to realize instant switchover.

Fuel reserve: at least 12-72 hours of operation (longer for demanding scenarios).

What is the recommended maintenance schedule for data center generators?

Weekly, check oil level/coolant, check standard: level between MIN-MAX.

Monthly, check no-load start test, check standard: continuously run for 5 minutes without alarms;

Semi-annually, change oil/filter, change standard: API CJ-4 grade oil;

Annually, full load test check, voltage fluctuation <±2% at 100% load.

Data center generator failure emergency common problems:

Failure to start: Priority check 24 V battery pack (data centers commonly used 2×12 V in series)

Abnormal output voltage: focus on testing AVR and excitation winding insulation (resistance value > 1 MΩ)

What should I do if data center generator experiences diesel fuel waxing
in a low-temperature environment?

Phenomenon: Fuel solidifies below -10°C and clog filters

Solution: Use winter grade diesel fuel (e.g. -35#)

Add a fuel heating kit (e.g. Webasto heater).

What should I do if data center generator experiences voltage/frequency instability?

Causes: Governor response delay, sudden load changes (e.g., multiple air conditioning compressors starting at the same time) and AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator) failure.
