In 2016, a customer needed generator backup to support its central data center. This data center supported manufacturing, warehousing, and sales staff at a number of customer locations.

IEA redeployed an inventory diesel generator with onboard switchgear to meet the customer’s need. Owing to the time the unit was in storage, the unit received comprehensive maintenance including a coolant flush, oil change, new filters, belts, hoses, batteries, blow-open exhaust louvers, and jacket water heater. In addition, the unit was thoroughly cleaned and the enclosure was repainted.

From its arrival onsite to its prepared concrete base and pre-trenched conduit and cabling, on-site construction was only 2 weeks.
