Considerations for Choosing a Mobile Diesel Generator

Time：2026-01-04 15:54:45 Edit：HuaQuan Traffic Index：170

A mobile diesel generator is an independent, movable power supply device that converts the chemical energy of diesel into mechanical energy through an internal combustion engine, which then drives a generator to produce electricity.

I. Features of Mobile Diesel Generator Products
Mobile diesel generators offer excellent mobility and flexibility. They are integrated into a chassis with heavy-duty tires, a towing bar, or forklift slots, allowing them to be quickly towed by a vehicle or moved by a forklift, and easily deployed to any location that requires power.

II. Huaquan Power is a professional Chinese manufacturer of mobile diesel generators
Huaquan Power was founded in 2010 and operates in multiple sectors, including power generation equipment, new energy storage equipment, high and low voltage complete sets of equipment, and power engineering. The company has developed three major brands: "HQ-POWER," "HUAQUAN," and "Huaquan." Today, Huaquan Power has grown into a strong global brand in the power industry, with over 1 million units sold worldwide.
As a professional Chinese manufacturer of mobile diesel generators, Huaquan Power can achieve large-scale, standardized production to meet global market demands. At the same time, with flexible production lines, it can quickly handle customized orders of small batches and multiple varieties.

III. Advantages of Mobile Diesel Generators
1. Flexible Deployment: Mobile diesel generators are designed with trailers, compatible with various towing vehicles, and can quickly access remote areas such as mountains and plateaus without power grids, making them suitable for bridge construction, mining, and other scenarios.
2. Reliable and Durable: Mobile diesel generators have intelligent protection features (such as high water temperature protection, low oil pressure protection, etc.) and will automatically alarm and shut down in case of abnormalities, ensuring equipment safety.
3. Efficient and Economical: Diesel engines have high thermal efficiency and low fuel consumption, can run continuously for long periods, have a lightweight power-to-weight ratio, and require simple supporting equipment.
4. Multi-Scenario Adaptability: Mobile diesel generators are suitable for emergency power supply, outdoor construction, mobile operations (such as oil field exploration and mining), and large-scale events.
Additionally, modern models feature quiet and environmentally friendly operation (noise controlled below 75 dB, meeting emission standards) and are easy to operate and maintain.

IV. Considerations for Choosing a Mobile Diesel Generator
1. Matching Mobile Diesel Generator Power to the Scenario
Power Calculation: Total power × 1.3 (taking motor starting current into account) to avoid insufficient startup.
Scenario Adaptation:
- Emergency backup: choose a generator with fast startup and low noise.
- Outdoor construction: prioritize portability, temperature resistance, and dustproof features.
- Industrial continuous power supply: opt for high-power, fuel-efficient models.
2. Mobile Diesel Generator Brand and Performance
- Engine: select a branded engine that meets China Stage III/IV emission standards.
- Generator: copper windings (aluminum windings are prone to burning), total voltage harmonic distortion ≤5% (≤3% for precision equipment).
- Fuel consumption: measured in L/kW·h, fuel tank should support more than 8 hours of emergency operation; for long-term use, an external fuel tank interface can be chosen.
3. Quality and Safety of Mobile Diesel Generators
- Protection Functions: must include overload, short circuit, and low oil pressure protections.
- Environmental Adaptation: choose turbocharged models for high-altitude areas, and IP54 protection for humid environments.
4. After-Sales and Practicality of Mobile Diesel Generators
- Service Network: prioritize brands with local service points.
- Control Panel: simple, supporting manual/automatic switching, and routine maintenance should not require professional tools.
- Emergency Scenarios: mobile diesel generators can be equipped with ATS automatic transfer switches.

V. Q&A on Mobile Diesel Generators
1. How is the power of a mobile diesel generator calculated?
Total power × 1.3 (considering the motor starting current) to avoid insufficient startup. (The power selection is ultimately determined based on the specific situation)
2. How is the fuel consumption of a mobile diesel generator calculated?
Unit L/kW·h. The fuel tank capacity should support more than 8 hours for emergencies; for long-term use, an external fuel tank interface can be chosen.
3. How is a mobile diesel generator used in emergency scenarios?
An ATS automatic switching device can be added to ensure automatic power switching in emergency situations.

VI. Application Areas of Mobile Diesel Generators
1. Emergency Power Supply
- Natural Disaster Rescue: In the event of power outages caused by earthquakes, floods, etc., they can quickly supply power to life detection instruments, lighting, and other equipment.
- Medical Emergency: Mobile diesel generators ensure the operation of critical hospital equipment such as ventilators and monitors.
- Power Grid Repair: They shorten downtime and accelerate restoration progress.
2. Outdoor Construction
- Construction Sites: Mobile diesel generators provide power to welding machines, electric drills, lighting, etc., especially suitable for remote areas.
- Railway Projects: Support machinery during tunnel and bridge construction.
- Pipeline Construction: Used in conjunction with power distribution systems to ensure safe electricity supply.
3. Large-Scale Events
- Music Festivals/Sports Events: Ensure stable operation of sound, lighting, and broadcasting equipment.
- Exhibitions/Markets: Mobile diesel generators supply power to booth equipment.
4. Agriculture and Livestock
- Irrigation Systems: Support water pumps, feed machines, etc.
- Greenhouse Equipment: Ensure operation of refrigeration and ventilation systems.
5. Field Operations
- Exploration and Mining: Meet electricity needs for oil, mineral, and other equipment.
- Military Operations: Provide power for communication and reconnaissance equipment.
6. Residential and Commercial Backup
- Unexpected Power Outages: Ensure basic electricity for refrigerators, lighting, and other household needs.
- Commercial Backup: Used in emergencies in places like supermarkets and hotels.

Mobile diesel generators are suitable for various scenarios. Different tasks require generators with different power ratings and configurations, so users should choose according to their specific work needs.
