We have a choice of hundreds of used static generators for sale here at Plant Pages, but before diving in, you need to be sure of your exact requirements. Make sure you check every electrical appliance your new generator is likely to run (in KvA) then add a nice margin for growth and ease of running (nobody wants to run any machine at 100% for any long periods of time). Once you have the required output there are other areas to consider. Should the machine run on diesel, LPG or even petrol? Diesel is the easiest to get hold of and store, but LPG runs cleaner for sensitive operations. Finally, how static is static? Will the generator never, ever need to be moved from its location? If it is a back-up generator for a workplace – office or factory – then this is likely to be the case. If the generator could find itself transported to different locations around a large site, then some degree of portability may be required. This could mean a bespoke trailer or perhaps just a skid mount and lifting eyes or accessibility for a forklift. For a truly mobile machine, you should be checking out the ‘mobile generator category‘ which includes towable and pedestrian pushable generators.
