Powered by Stage V D24 engines and Stamford alternators, the new PG40 and PG50 portable generators from Bobcat replace the previous generation Stage IIIA G40 and G60 units, delivering a combination of increased power output and lower fuel consumption compared to their predecessors.
The engine in the new generators allows Bobcat to offer a true 50 kVA prime unit the new PG50 model and still be below the diesel exhaust fluid system requirement. Alongside the PG50, the PG40 delivers a prime power output of 40 kVA.
In addition, both generators have a new sleek, compact design, with a selection of novel features including optional factory-mounted running gear, with either fixed or variable height, for easy transportation such as towing behind a car. This upgrade provides unmatched convenience, ensuring mobility on and off the job site.
The Comap MRS16 controller is again at the heart of the PG40 and PG50, with telematics options that allow units to be easily located and for their status to be read remotely. The successful connection system from the PG100 is incorporated in the new models and are claimed to guarantee optimal efficiency, facilitating hassle-free set-up and smooth performance.
Operation is quiet, with the models offering a low noise level – the LWA 88 sound power level on the PG40 and LWA 89 on the PG50, make them among the quietest units on the market. As well as being quiet, the PG40 and PG50 are also clean running, featuring a bunded base designed for 110% fluid containment, where spills are virtually eliminated, ensuring environmental protection and reducing maintenance needs.
