Power support company,
shentongroup, has launched a range
of standby diesel generators and
associated control systems
specifically designed to meet the Life
Safety requirements of BS EN8519:
2010. Called
PhoenixPower,
the generators
are available in
sizes from 20 to
800kVA and
have been
specifically
developed to provide
secondary power for 'Life
Safety' and fire-fighting systems.
Switching the supply from the
mains power to the PhoenixPower
generator or secondary mains supply
is carried out automatically by
shentongroup's PhoenixControl
changeover panel, which is designed
for dual mains sources and meets the
new standard.
The PhoenixControl changeover
panel detects a 'Life Safety' event and
automatically switches the power
source from the normal mains
power the to the PhoenixPower
generator or the
secondary mains
supply to ensure
continuity of
supply to fire
fighting lifts and
other essential
equipment.
Electrically and
mechanically
interlocked to ensure
the isolation of the two supplies, the
PhoenixControl has indicators to
show the supply and switching status
to the generator as well as a key
switch to facilitate testing.
