Secure I.T. Environments designs and installs new 200kW generator unit

Secure I.T. Environments Ltd (SITE) has completed works with Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council (BCP) to design, supply and install a new generator and acoustic housing to support the IT hub for the whole council. SITE also decommissioned the existing generator which had reached the end of its serviceable life.

A 250kV, 200kW diesel generator, with auto start, battery charging and remote monitoring features. SITE designed an acoustic drop-over canopy cabinet for the generator, which included an internally mounted exhaust and silencer, lowering noise to 75dB(A)@1m in FFC.

Secure I.T. Environments fully installed and tested the generator, as well as providing full training for staff on the new hardware, covering operation, health & safety, and testing. The installation, decommissioning, testing, and switchover were completed in one day with minimum disruption to client services. SITE will provide support for the generator over the warranty period.

Chris Wellfair, Projects Director at Secure I.T. Environments said, “The importance of replacing back-up generators cannot be overstated. Tests and maintenance should be regularly conducted to identify issues, and when a unit reaches the end of its serviceable life the risks of it not providing back-up power when needed are too great. The reputational risks and financial loss of unplanned downtime can take months to recover from.”
