Why Generator Controls Are Growing in Popularity


According to experts in the power generator industry, recent developments for generator controls are one of the most interesting advances in generator technology. Whereas complicated generator controls used to involve large control boards and similar gear that took up a lot of space, generator controls and control panels are now much smaller in size. As generator controls continue to advance, modern technology is being incorporated in new ways. One such example of this is that it is now possible for generators to be monitored remotely via websites that show a generator’s current status including fuel levels, oil pressure and more.

It’s no surprise that as generator controls become more convenient and less space-consuming, they are growing in popularity. Further advancements are also expected, including fuel-saving controllers that give generators more built-in functionality (such as being able to ramp up and down automatically). With an ever-increasing concern for our impact on the environment, generator controls that would lead to a reduced fuel usage are very desirable.

Advancements in Generator Controls

Generator control panels are an essential part of monitoring and controlling a unit’s operations. Advancements in generator controls are great for a number of reasons, including:

  • Saving Space: Without bulky equipment taking up space, generator rooms become less cluttered. It may also be easier to meet generator room requirements without large generator control boards taking up extra space.
  • Increase in Safety: Smaller, more compact controls may be easier to manage than large, complicated boards of controls. The easier it is to control and monitor a generator’s system, the safer the unit becomes. Closely monitored units are sure to be functioning properly, avoiding any malfunctions that can cause the generator to fail when it’s needed the most.
  • Added Convenience: With remote monitoring available, generator owners and maintenance personnel may check in on units even while off-site. This added convenience contributes to safety, especially in situations where generators are providing backup power for mission-critical and life-sustaining functions.

All advancements in the field of power generators are likely to be improvements that simplify generator operations and benefit generator owners.
