What changes the price of a diesel generator
Power (kW)
This is the main factor: the more powerful the generator, the bigger the engine and alternator.
Voltage and phases
Single-phase 120/240 V for a home or farm, three-phase for a business or industry.
The enclosure
Our models are enclosed and soundproof. An open version (200 L tank) is available on request.
The components
A Perkins engine, a genuine Stamford alternator and a Deep Sea controller cost more than unbranded equipment, but parts are available everywhere.
