The telecommunications company Saudi Telecom Company has decided to use Inmesol generators<\/strong> in order to supply its telecommunications network in the middle of the desert<\/strong> at several different points of Saudi Arabia\u2019s geography.<\/p>\n

The country\u2019s desert climate<\/strong> \u2013 with extremely high daytime temperatures<\/strong>, which drop dramatically<\/strong> overnight, together with frequent sandstorms<\/strong> \u2013 requires special equipment to be designed<\/strong> so that it will withstand the extreme conditions<\/strong> to which it is exposed in the places where it needs to be located.<\/p>\n

Special Features of the Inmesol Generators Installed in the Desert<\/h3>\n
Continuous power supply: 24\/7\/365<\/strong><\/h5>\n

This type of installation needs a small but constant<\/strong> power supply: 24 hours per day<\/strong>, 7 days<\/strong> per week, every day of the year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Inmesol\u2019s solution<\/strong> is to install equipment consisting of pairs of generators<\/strong> which, by operating alternately in eight-hour cycles<\/strong> are able to function non-stop. With this system, each of the two generator units making up the set can \u201crest\u201d while the other one is working. In general, the power<\/strong> supplied by the generators varies between 20 <\/strong>and 30 kVA<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In order to guarantee a constant power supply, this system also envisages that the reserve generator can go into operation should there be any concern about some anomaly<\/strong> in the functioning of the generator that is supplying power at the time.<\/p>\n

Since the aim is that each unit in the equipment should be able to work at full capacity<\/strong> when necessary, and also that the engines should not function below the minimum acceptable charge, an artificial charge is incorporated in the equipment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
