Best Tools Company has conducted a series of rigorous tests on four Rehlko KD1100-F power generators to ensure their reliability in a data center project. Given the importance of an efficient backup system in this field, each generator was tested continuously for 24 hours under load conditions using the load bank from the Energy division’s technical department.

Why Are Such Rigorous Tests Necessary?

In a data center, operational continuity is crucial, and backup generators must be of the highest quality. Any power interruption can have significant consequences, which is why we performed these meticulous tests to ensure that the generators operate within optimal parameters and deliver the necessary performance in any situation.

Technical Specifications of the Rehlko KD1100-F Generators

These power generators are manufactured in France and run on diesel fuel, providing 1100 kVA in emergency mode and 1000 kVA in continuous operation. The generators operate at a frequency of 50 Hz, with a speed of 1500 rpm, supplying a voltage of 400 / 230 V.

Engine

  • KOHLER KD Series engine, 26.97L
  • Maximum power of 979 kW

Alternator

  • Kohler alternator with direct coupling, self-excited and brushless
  • Insulation class H
  • Protection rating IP 23
  • Three-phase, 4-pole configuration

Structural Elements

  • Enlarged fuel tank, 3000 liters, integrated under the chassis for extended autonomy
  • Electronic speed regulator
  • Coolant preheating system for easy starting in cold weather
  • 12V starting system
  • Rectifier for battery charging when the generator is not in operation
  • Alternator for battery charging during engine operation
  • Vibration dampers mounted between the chassis and the engine-alternator assembly

Soundproof Enclosure

The soundproof enclosure is built from durable materials, painted to the highest standards, and features doors for quick access to internal components. It significantly reduces noise levels to:

  • 87 dB at 1 meter
  • 78 dB at 7 meters

 

The tests conducted by Best Tools Company have demonstrated that Rehlko KD1100-F generators are highly reliable and suitable for data center applications. They offer excellent performance, extended autonomy, and quiet operation, making them an ideal choice for ensuring the continuity of critical operations. Through this rigorous approach, we guarantee that the equipment we supply meets the highest quality and safety standards.
