March 31, 2003—Generac Power Systems’ expanded Modular Power System (MPS) brings flexibility and cost effectiveness for applications from three hundred kilowatts to three megawatts. The Modular Power System combines two or more smaller gensets in a side-by-side parallel arrangement.
The PowerManager control system works with Generac’s own paralleling technology, eliminating the need for switchgear cabinets. Since the generators can be operated individually or in concert with each other in response to an outage or command, the modular system has great flexibility and is fully adaptable to lesser loads. The modular design also means that any system is scalable by simply adding another MPS genset.
Generac kept the cost down in order to bring this multiple unit capability to a new range of applications. The purchase price—including Generac’s fully integrated paralleling switch technology—is approximately 10 to 20% lower than large, single engine units (the actual savings may be even greater in some cases).
