FAQs
What types of industrial generators do you supply and install in Deer Lodge?
We provide diesel, natural-gas, and bi-fuel industrial generators ranging from 50 kW skid units to multi-megawatt containerized systems. All models are UL-listed, Tier 4-Final compliant, and designed for continuous, prime, or standby duty. We also supply paralleling generator sets for facilities that need N+1 redundancy or load-sharing capability.
How do I determine the correct generator size and capacity for my facility?
Our engineers perform a detailed load study that reviews your single-line diagrams, peak-demand history, motor starting currents, and critical process loads. We then apply a 20-percent future-growth factor and check voltage-dip limits to recommend the optimal kW/kVA rating. A site visit in Deer Lodge allows us to evaluate space, ventilation, fuel storage, and noise constraints before finalizing the specification.
Are your generator systems compliant with Montana and federal environmental regulations?
Yes. All new diesel units meet EPA Tier 4-Final or stationary emergency standards, and natural-gas sets comply with NSPS Subpart JJJJ. We provide the necessary DEQ air-quality permit documentation for Powell County, handle spill-containment design per NFPA 30 and SPCC guidelines, and offer double-wall fuel tanks with leak monitoring to ensure full compliance.
What preventive maintenance services do you offer?
We offer quarterly, semi-annual, and annual service contracts that include oil and coolant analysis, fuel-system inspection, load-bank testing, battery health checks, controller firmware updates, and infrared thermography of switchgear. All work is performed by EGSA-certified technicians, and service records are uploaded to our customer portal for easy audit access.
Can you integrate a new generator with my existing switchgear and SCADA system?
Absolutely. Our UL 891/1558 panel shop can retrofit or build new ATS, breaker, and bus assemblies to match your facility’s voltage and ampacity. We program Modbus, DNP3, or Ethernet/IP protocols so the generator controller communicates seamlessly with your plant’s SCADA or building-management system, enabling remote start/stop, alarm monitoring, and data logging.
How fast can you respond to an emergency generator failure or power outage in Deer Lodge?
We maintain a 24/7 on-call team with a guaranteed two-hour arrival window within Powell County. Service trucks carry common parts—filters, belts, batteries, controllers—and a portable 400 kW rental generator, allowing us to restore temporary power while repairs are completed. Remote monitoring clients receive automatic alerts and priority dispatch.
