Objective / Goals

With a business continuity mindset, the facilities management of this 14-storey inner-city site made the decision to modify their existing generator and fuel tank, to future-proof back-up power.

Problem

• An existing 1100KVA – standby CAT generator system would benefit from an overhaul and recommission while still on site
• The project had a 3-week, onsite timeframe
• To support future usage, it was desirable to incorporate a digital uplift into the existing generator back-up system

Solution

• Supplied and installed a new control system
• Mounted, reinstalled and cleaned the fuel transfer line transferring from the basement level to 2 other locations in the building
• Replaced the day tank and faulty fuel pump system
• Installed a brand-new polish system for the existing fuel tank

Outcome

• The on-site component of the project was completed within a strict 3-week timeframe
• The existing power system was digitised, to align with the site’s technology uplift activities
• An enhanced back-up power system with increased safety, reliability and durability
