Small diesel generators like these are used when portable power is required. Many use them for emergency backup, on job sites or in remote locations. Since diesel is not as flammable as gasoline, they can often be safely stored in a garage or shed. There are two kinds of portable diesel generators, the open or silenced enclosed type. Aurora builds these portable diesel generators to UL and CSA standards making them superior to others.
The perfect, whole home generator requires no complicated gas hookup or complete electrical panel rewiring. Generators like this work independently and are self contained. Built in fuel tanks, transfer switches and control systems make it easy to install and maintain. Modern diesel engines used today, produce more power, make little noise, and have no visible smoke. People are quickly abandoning the air cooled, fast turning natural gas or propane engines of the past and switching to longer lasting environmentally friendly diesel.

Transfer switches are an essential part of a standby power system. The utility (normal power source) is backed up by a generator (emergency power source). Should the utility fail, the transfer switch automatically switches the electrical load from the utility to the generator. When utility power returns, the transfer switch automatically switches the electrical load back to the utility. Automatic transfer switches, capable of automatic operation without operator intervention, perform the basic function of transferring the load to the available power source. A controller monitors each source for allowable voltage and frequency range. The transfer switch performs the following functions: Senses the interruption of utility power Sends a start signal to the generators Senses generator power is available Transfers the load to the generator Senses the return of utility power Retransfers the load to the utility Sends a stop signal to the generators Transfer switches are available in different sizes and enclosure types. The following is a list of what we have available. Follow the links to learn more about each transfer switch, download manuals and product brochures.
