Shaft power components
Vert Energy is a service provider to the diesel, gas, wind and hydrogenerator set building industry in the power generation and electromechanical sectors. Through an extensive range of quality branded EPG products and a highly skilled team of technical experts, the company plays a major role in providing dependable power, even in remote regions. Vert Energy has been appointed distributors in sub-Saharan Africa for leading brands. Components include Leroy Somer alternators; electric motors and drives; DEIF controllers; ASCO automatic transfer switches; API Covrad radiators; Avtron and Froment load banks; and customised control panels.
Leroy Somer LS alternators are available from 5 kVA to 20 mVA from 48 V DC to 11 000 V. They include the new LS range of 2-pole alternators for portable power, as well as variable speed alternators designed especially for the telecoms market. DEIF power and control components include the new automatic sustainable controller (ASC). This is the first fully integrated control solution between renewable energy inverters and traditional diesel generators.
The ASCO Series 230 automatic transfer switch consists of an intelligent controller and a modular load break switch that automatically transfers the load to the emergency power source when it detects under/over voltage, under/over frequency, or phase failure. Avtron and Froment power test solutions are used for the exercise and verification of diesel gensets, gas turbines, UPS systems, wind and solar, as well as tractors and self-propelled machinery. Covrad’s turnkey radiator cooling packages feature high performance cores and low horsepower fans that deliver maximum cooling in the smallest footprint.
