Battery dependent systems can be effective, of course, but the cost implications of purchasing, sheltering, and periodically replacing batteries should be a part of any alternative power study. Farwest's engineers are available to assist you with analysis and provide information for your own feasibility study. This model is certified by the Canadian Standards Association and by Factory Mutual Research Corporation. This is the ideal model for offshore applications when restricted by safety requirements and space limitations. Low Maintenance Preventative maintenance consists of cleaning or replacing a fuel filter and fuel orifice once per year.
Maintenance is performed on site in a few hours, with basic hand tools and mechanical skills.
No rainfall, snowfall or wind limitations apply, except that the generator must not be flooded or inundated. Larger Systems Thermoelectric generators can be combined to meet high power requirements. These systems may combine multiple generator models electrically connected in series or parallel. Return to Farwest home page .
