Our Advanced PM
When the generator is operating and producing electricity, it produces heat. As the heat increases, generator efficiencies decrease. To solve this problem, our generators include an air cooling system. This drastically reduces the associated wear that high-temperatures can cause, and thus improves the life-span of our generators.

Key Advantages
Price
Our turbines operate using a technology that is not only innovative but has reduced the price point on our systems to ensure a faster return on investment to the end user.
Engineering
State of the art systems equipped with rugged generators ensure that turbines operate in even the harshest of conditions. All electronics are mounted, pre-wired and pre-tested in NEMA rated 3R cabient prior to shipment saving installation/start up time.
Installation
The form factor design of our generators allows for installation ease, thereby minimizing upfront costs and minimizing your environmental footprint.
Specifications
With the lowest cut-in speed in the industry, electricity is produced sooner and more efficiently.
Maintenance
With our PM generator, cogging problems are completely eliminated as the technology has no core on the stator coil, thereby minimizing down time and reducing maintenance costs over the life of the system.
