If a portable air cooled generator can not provide the power you need, then this generator is your next best choice. This three cylinder diesel engine powered generator makes less noise, does not smoke or smell bad. The diesel motor is the same one used on farm tractors. They are low maintenance, long lasting and extremely durable.   A built in belly fuel tank means there is no need to hook up to another fuel supply.  The enclosure is weatherproof and will withstand harsh weather conditions. This generator is often used for small homes as a prime source of power for as an emergency standby use.   They can also be mounted on a trailer and moved to different locations for disaster relief as an example.

Perkins Prime Power Generator

The power consumption in the average north American home is under 20,000 watts. In reality, few people want to, or need to run all heavy appliances at the same time. This is what makes a 10,000 watt size diesel generator the most popular choice. The Perkins engine when used at 50% load will consume less than 0.45 gallons per hour (1.7 Liter)  This is great for those living off the grid or in remote locations who wish to use this generator as a prime source of power. 

After the initial setup, operation is straightforward. Turn the key to on and press the start button. If it is unusually cold, the built in engine preheater can be used. For convenience, there is a common 30 amp 120/240 outlet on the front of the generator. This L14-30 outlet is found on most portable generators, existing transfer switches and jobs sites. Just plug in for up to a 30 amp supply or make a more permanent  connection to the terminal block for more power later.

With the panel door open or closed you can easily check the generators operational status. All the meters and gauges are large and easy to read. They show you voltage, current, frequency, oil pressure, water temperature, and fuel level. Nobody likes to run out of fuel so we made it easier for everyone by installing a fuel gauge. Not one but two of them are installed. A electronic one on the front panel and a mechanical one on the fuel tank itself. This makes it easier when filling up fuel knowing what is in the tank and not having to turn the key to check. It is just another example of the little things we do to make this generator a better product.

Notice the stainless steel hinges, fasteners and steel welded enclosure. This generator is built to last. The strong enclosure also helps to keep the noise level below 65 db. This is less then any portable diesel generator.

Our Perkins diesel powered generator uses model DSE3110 Controller from Deep Sea Electronics.
