Challenges Overcome
The site required the removal of an old fuel tank to make way for the new DyMac FHC1100L external tank. Target Power worked closely with the client to coordinate the removal process, ensuring minimal disruption. Additionally, timing was critical: the existing rental generator was off-hired on the same day the new generator was delivered, requiring meticulous planning to maintain power availability.

The Pramac GSW165P generator was selected for its:
Robust Performance: Equipped with a Perkins 1106 Series engine and Stamford alternator, the generator delivers reliable power for critical operations.
Compatibility with External Fuel Tank: A three-way valve was installed to facilitate seamless integration with the DyMac FHC1100L tank, enhancing fuel storage capacity.
Availability: With the generator in stock, the project timeline was expedited to meet the customer’s needs.
Project Timeline
The entire project, from deposit to delivery, was completed within three weeks.
Key milestones included:
Coordination for Fuel Tank Removal: Assistance with the removal of the old fuel tank to prepare the site for installation.
Delivery and Installation: The generator and fuel tank were delivered via curtain-side vehicle, ensuring safe transport.
