Dalgakiran diesel generators for hospitals and clinics

Diesel generator for the Municipal Clinical Hospital of Emergency and Ambulance Care named after Prof. O.I. Meshchaninov

The specifics of the work of clinical ambulance and emergency hospitals is their constant readiness for round-the-clock emergency care. Even in case of natural and man-made emergencies, when a large number of patients need help at the same time.

According to the Electrical Installation Regulations (EIR), hospitals are classified as “Category I electrical receivers” with the highest reliability priority, and an interruption in power supply can be life-threatening. Therefore, uninterrupted power supply to medical facilities is the key to saving patients’ lives.

In addition, it should be noted that the power supply of hospitals has its own specifics and places much higher demands on equipment than ordinary enterprises. Hospitals use a lot of equipment for which the “quality” of electricity is important – a stable current frequency, harmonic distortion factor and rated voltage.

This is the type of medical institution that Kharkiv’s Prof. O.I. Meshchaninov City Clinical Hospital for Emergency and Ambulance Care belongs to, for which Dalgakiran Compressor Ukraine has completed a project for a backup power supply system based on the results of a tender won by the company.

The heart of the system is an ultra-reliable Cummins C450D5B diesel generator equipped with electronic frequency regulators specifically for powering highly sensitive equipment. Its capacity is 450 kVA, which is enough to power all the hospital’s electrical equipment in the future. The generator is equipped with an automatic backup system that allows the hospital to instantly switch to emergency power in the event of a power outage.

The Cummins open-type diesel generator was installed in a separate room equipped with heating and ventilation systems with special air supply louvers. All systems operate in automatic mode.

In addition to power plant reliability and current quality, one of the most important factors for medical facilities is ensuring low noise levels. Diesel generators from Dalgakiran fully meet these requirements thanks to their design features and soundproofing covers (when installed outdoors).

I would also like to note that there are quite a few news stories about hospital patients who have suffered due to power outages. And this is despite the fact that a generator was installed in the medical facility, but it was either of poor quality or incorrectly connected. That is, it did not work as required. Another common mistake when selecting generator equipment for hospitals is the wrong power selection. In order to avoid such situations, Dalgakiran Compressor Ukraine offers a professional energy audit of the facility using special measuring instruments.

As a leader in the domestic market of industrial diesel generators, Dalgakiran offers exceptionally reliable turnkey backup power supply systems for medical institutions, starting with the development of a technical solution and ending with commissioning and training of customer personnel.

Having the largest in-house network of service centers in Ukraine allows us to provide the highest level of service and respond immediately to customer requests, ensuring reliable and uninterrupted operation of the supplied equipment.
