Earth Hour 2022

Earth Hour is a renowned campaign to raise public awareness to take sustainable actions against climate change. Again, we pledged to support Earth Hour by switching off lights at 8:30 pm on 26 March.

As this year’s theme is “Habits Protect Habitats”, we support the idea to develop new habits to save our nature. This year, we hope to further spread the message and encourage colleagues to make the following changes on March 25:

  1. Switch off unnecessary power supplies during lunchtime;
  2. Carry reusable lunch boxes and tableware instead of buying takeaways with disposables.

Don’t forget to join us in switching off lights for Earth hour this Saturday. Let us join hands together in environmental protection!

Thank you so much for the active participation from our team!

Providing a safe working environment for our employees

Providing a safe working environment for our employees

The Hong Kong community is confronting the latest alarming wave of Covid-19 outbreaks. In addition to customer satisfaction, our employees’ safety and health are our top priority. To ensure they work in a safe working environment, we adopted the following proactive policies:

  1. Hiring professionals to perform quality coronavirus deep-cleaning services to safeguard our workplace.
  2. Offering COVID-19 rapid testing kits for employees. Only employees with negative results are allowed to work in our workplace. In case employees or their close contacts are tested positive, employees are required to undergo quarantine to have rest and help keep COVID-19 from spreading.
  3. Changing office hours to avoid the peak-hour commute and letting our office workers work at home. Our office hours are now from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm (Mon – Fri). [*Update: From 19 April 2022, our office hours restore from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm (Mon – Fri).]
  4. Providing hygiene kits including N95 masks, face shields, wet tissues and sanitisers for employees when working on sites.

While protecting our employees’ well-being, we hope to ensure quality products and services to you as always. Hope that the tough time will be over soon and everyone is safe and healthy!

Different door designs in our diesel generator sets

Different door designs in our diesel generator sets

In our enclosure diesel generating sets, specific door designs are assigned to particular genset types. The most common types are Single Door Design and Double Door Design.

The single door design is often applied to ‘End In Front Out Type’ containerised generator sets. As ‘End In Front Out Type’ requires more natural wind for ventilation airflow within the container for cooling, the airflow louvres in the door are relatively wider.

The double door design is utilised in ‘Remote Radiator Type’ containerised generator sets. Generator sets with double door designs would use less space when opening the doors for maintenance. The double door is on the alternator side. For the opposite side (radiator side), the door is tightened with fastenings which can be loosened for maintenance. When there is a need to replace the radiators, you only have to open the doors at the radiator side instead of removing the whole generator set out of the container.

Before shipment, we seal the container door locks to protect the internal contents during transportation. So, it keeps everything secure delivering to your place!

Can diesel generators run safely on rainy days?

Can diesel generators run safely on rainy days?

Heavy rainfall is usual in tropical regions and other areas. A stable electricity supply is crucial in bad weather, but is it safe to run a diesel generator on rainy days?

Our enclosure type diesel generators are safely designed to equip with both weatherproof and soundproof functions. Under normal usage, raindrops cannot get into the internal parts like fuel, lubricating and cooling systems. Additionally, all of our containerised sets have water outlets at the bottom of air outlets to remove water. However, do not run a genset in extreme conditions, for example, locating a genset under a drain spout or during a flood.

We should never operate an openset under the rain, as this type is for locating in a generator room. Water can cause permanent damage to a generator. Moisture can ruin the alternator and other internal components that may lead to corrosion. Once there is damage to the generator, you need an overhaul to remove dirt and clean the internal components afterwards.

We had similar projects to build customised rainproof housing for clients having a strong demand for water resistance. If you have special requests for your diesel generator designs, feel free to consult our specialists!
