Magnet Generator Sets
Large lifting magnets require electric power to operate and this can be supplied by either an hydraulic powered generator or a Diesel powered generator. These generating power units typically produce 220 Volts DC at upwards of 25 Amps.
Diesel - Magnet Generator Sets
Large lifting magnets require electric power to operate and this can be supplied by either an hydraulic motor powered generator or a diesel powered generator.
Radpol Engineering manufacture both Hydraulic magnet generators and Diesel magnet generators from 5KVA to 22KVA suitable for both Scap magnets and Lifting Magnets.
Diesel generators use a Diesel fuel powered motor which spins the Generator and produces electricity to operate the Electro magnet. Depending on the specific power needed will determine the size of the Diesel Generator Set.
Modern Diesel powered generators are quite compact and reliable and are available in a wide range of power outputs to power the generator.
Hydraulic - Magnet Generator Sets
Radpol Engineering manufacture both Hydraulic magnet generators and Diesel magnet generators from 5KVA to 22KVA suitable for both Scap magnets and Lifting Magnets.
The Hydraulic Magnet generators are driven by an hydraulic motor which is powered by the auxiliary hydraulic circuit of the excavator.
The hydraulic motor is a very compact unit and can be affixed directly to the magnet.
On average a hydraulic generator is 50% lighter and smaller than a diesel powered generator. It is quieter, more reliable, virtually maintenance-free and there's no pollution or carbon exhaust when it is in operation.
