Data centre generators.
Backup power built around your project.

Sizing starts with the electrical load schedule, including IT equipment, UPS losses and battery recharge, cooling and essential building services. The design must also account for motor starting, load steps, operating conditions, future capacity and the required redundancy. Send your kW or kVA requirement and UPS details so we can review suitable generator options with your design team.

The quotation depends on output, engine and alternator specification, duty rating, enclosure, fuel storage, controls, transfer equipment, delivery and installation. A supply-only generator price will not include every cost of an installed backup power system. We prepare project quotations with an agreed scope so buyers can compare the proposed equipment and services.

No. The UPS supports connected critical loads during the interval before the generator starts and the supply transfers. The generator then provides longer-duration backup power. Generator and UPS compatibility, battery recharge demand and the transfer sequence need to be checked together.

We can discuss multiple-generator packages, synchronising controls and load-sharing requirements. The final proposal depends on the electrical design, protection, switchgear and required redundancy. Specify whether you need a single set, N+1 capacity or separate redundant power paths when requesting a quote.

No. Standby, prime and continuous ratings have different operating conditions. Any manufacturer-specific Data Centre Continuous (DCC) rating must be confirmed for the exact generator set. An engine brand or a headline standby kVA figure alone does not establish suitability for the required load and operating hours.

No. A facility's Tier requirements involve the wider infrastructure and its design, operation and assessment. Generator selection must follow the project's specified requirements; purchasing a generator or adding a spare set does not certify the data centre.

Yes. We welcome enquiries from individuals, businesses and public-sector buyers planning backup power for server rooms, edge facilities and disaster recovery sites. Our existing Midlands council project used an 88 kVA Blackwell generator; each new application still requires its own load assessment.

We offer installation and commissioning support, load bank testing, planned servicing, maintenance contracts and fault-finding through FW Power Generators. The service scope, site access, testing arrangements and response availability are agreed for your project.
