Getting to know FG Wilson Generator's Genuine Parts

@SRPAmericas our commitment with our clients goes a long way.

We sell FG Wilson Generators and we support them for their entire life cycle.

An important part of keeping a Generator up and running like the first day is to use Genuine Parts and it's also important to know what makes the difference.

Here we are explaining the features of a FG Wilson Radial Seal Outer Element Filter.

FG Wilson Air Filters are designed to balance three important characteristics:

1. Maximum efficiency,

2. Minimum initial restriction and

3. Economy of use.

The main components of a heavy-duty radial seal air filter are the seal, molded ends, inner and outer metal casing and filter material.

The inner and outer metal casings protect the filter material and provide the complete filter with its structural strength. With 73% of the surface area of ​​the metal enclosures open, all Wilson FG filters meet the minimum air flow restriction.

The most important part of the air filter is the filter material. FG Wilson air filtration products ensure maximum strength and minimal restriction due to the high quality of their filter material. This material uses a special embossing process, which creates an integrated crease spacing. The stability and the separation capacity are thus improved in order to prevent the folds from contracting against one another under the effect of the incoming air.

The air filter structure and robust radial seal are made of a urethane compound designed to provide exceptional balance between durability, efficiency and filter capacity, making maintenance easier and more economical.

1. Heavy Duty Radial Seal
   Made of a special urethane compound, it does not degrade at extreme temperatures, or when subjected to restriction variations or vibrations.
2. Flexible external ends
   Their flexibility facilitates the insertion and removal of filters with low clearance.
3. Rugged construction
   Provides even spacing of folds to prevent tightening and ensures maximum element life.
4. Spiral bonding
   Provides extra stability of the folds to optimize the efficiency of the filter material.
5. Heavy Duty Construction
   Features a specially reinforced part in the center, designed to avoid constant bending and the risk of breakage when changing the inlet pressure.

Grupos Electrógenos FG Wilson: Hablemos de Relación Aire/Combustible en Motores Diesel

Sabes de que se trata la Relación Aire/Combustible en un motor Diesel, en Plantas Electricas?

Cuando se habla de la afinación del motor, la 'relación aire/combustible' (RAC) es uno de los temas principales.

La calibración adecuada de RAC es fundamental para el rendimiento y la durabilidad del motor y sus componentes.

La RAC define la proporción de la cantidad de aire consumido por el motor, en comparación con la cantidad de combustible.

 

Nuestras Plantas Eléctricas con motores Perkins están diseñadas para operar de manera optima, en distintas aplicaciones, tales como construcción, residencial, comercial y telecomunicaciones, entre otras.

Mientras que los motores Perkins, líderes en la industria de la Generación de Electricidad, ofrecen un desempeño altamente competitivo y confiable, así como ahorro de combustible y bajo costo de mantenimiento.

En nuestro canal de Youtube, Simply Reliable Power, encontraran este y otros videos con información util y actualizada sobre la Operación y Mantenimiento de Grupos Electrógenos FG Wilson,asi como las ventajas en el uso de Repuestos Originales.
