When selecting Fubag diesel generators, certain indicators have to be taken into account. The power and type of construction of the unit matter. It is worth deciding in advance both with the required number of phases and with the type of motor cooling.

The standard efficiency of a diesel generator is 40 to 70% of its rated capacity. That is, from 1 kW, you can power devices no more powerful than 700 watts. This is what should be taken into account when choosing the power of the equipment. A 5 kW diesel generator will provide the necessary power supply for a typical country house.

By design, all diesel generators are divided into several main categories.

1. Basic, open type. They are suitable for placement in rooms with a forced exhaust system of combustion products.
2. Closed, in a soundproof casing. Indoor models. Suitable for work at night, long-term use.
3. Closed, in a casing isolated from external influences. These are street models that can be installed near the house, summer cottage, change houses at the construction site.
4. Containerized, for particularly difficult operating conditions. In addition to their casing, they have an outer casing in the form of a block container.

Classic household electric generators, during operation, produce a standard voltage of 210 to 230 V. It is enough for most household appliances. Three-phase models are capable of supplying voltage to 380 V, have increased efficiency. They are chosen if it is required to connect powerful machines and other equipment.

According to the type of construction, all diesel generators are usually divided into 2 large categories. There are household models designed for use as a backup power source in a country house or in the country. They are as easy to operate, safe and reliable as possible. Models with auto-ignition make it possible to ensure that there are no risks when the device is turned on. Sometimes they are called mobile because of their compact size and mobile design.

Industrial diesel generators are of a stationary type. They are equipped with a radiator for liquid cooling.

By this criterion, diesel generators can be classified into high-speed and low-speed. The former operate at a speed of 1500 to 3000 rpm, spend more fuel and make more noise. Low-speed models are more comfortable to operate, run quieter, and have a longer resource. In addition, the method of cooling matters: water is chosen for models with high power ratings, designed for long-term continuous operation.
