3. Product Description
BASIC USE
The Baldor IDLC generators are a custom
product configured to a customer’s defined
set of specifications. For peak sharing duty,
Baldor’s IDLC generators can supply prime
power in parallel with the utility. In the standby mode, the IDLC generator sets can supply
emergency power to all critical loads and
selected loads as desired. Baldor offers the
IDLC product range from 30 - 2000 kW.
Every IDLC power system is designed, engineered, built and tested to the customer’s
specific specifications. Solid-state engine controls and switchgear systems are designed to
meet application requirements.
Every Baldor industrial engineered generator
set is designed using only the finest, industrialquality components and enclosures. High voltage tests to 7.2 KV and load testing to 2 MW
can be performed at Baldor’s modern onsite
testing facility. Each component is tested to
applicable specifications prior to assembly.
Upon completion, each assembly undergoes
its own rigorous test. In addition to factory testing, Baldor will design and build products to be
tested in actual field conditions to ensure that
the product will meet the special requirements
of the industrial market and Baldor’s uncompromising standard of reliability.
