Diesel Tanker

On-demand fuel delivery at your doorstep. Power up your generators and deal with the shortage of power!

DID you know?

A diesel generator makes power depending on load factor and cost of fuel.

Using a diesel engine as a prime mover is one of the popular methods of generating power.

Diesel-powered generators can go at a minimum of 12,000 hours and upwards to 20,000 hours before requiring engine overhauls.

Rudolf Diesel initially considered vegetable seed oil for his engine, an idea that eventually contributed to biodiesel production and uses today.

India has suffered constant power shortages since Independence in 1947. The peak demand shortage is more than 10%, whereas the overall energy shortage is more than 7%.

Most diesel generators have a 24-hour fuel tank, although 48- and 72-hour fuel tanks are available.

Diesel generators are less commonly used generators, but they are more fuel-efficient than gasoline and propane options. A 20-kilowatt diesel generator uses approximately 4 to 4.5 liters per hour.

Fuel costs (per kW) produced with diesel engines are considerably less than engines with other fuel types. Due to its high energy density, the amount of fuel consumed is lesser.

Before refueling a generator, please turn off the motor and let it cool down completely, which may take 15 minutes or so.

We should not operate generators in wet conditions. It is essential for the generator to be correctly grounded. If it is not grounded, there is a risk of electrocution.

Do's

Make sure the generator is not running inside a dwelling or an enclosed space.
Switch the generator off when moving, refueling or when not being used.
Point the engine exhaust away from people, the house, tent, etc.

Do's

Get a qualified electrician involved if you need to modify your generator or plug it into your mains system.
Make sure the generator is placed in a stable, safe environment.

Dont's

Don't start without reading the manual. A generator is a severe bit of a kit and needs careful handling.
Don't store or transport the generator with petrol in it if you can avoid it.
Don't use domestic cabling, especially if using outside.

Dont's

Don't use an enclosed place to run the generator. It requires proper ventilation.
Don't overload your generator. Be sensible about what you are running. For safety and economy, run the fewest things you can manage and think about the essentials you need to keep going. Never overload your generator!
