Powering Agriculture In A World That’s Always n.
When Every Minute Matters. Reliability is paramount when it comes to livestock farming, where a power outage can disrupt automated feeding and watering systems, ventilation fans and HVAC systems. Losing power can wipe out a farm’s entire inventory of hogs, poultry or other animals – and destroy profitability for a year or more. Additionally, future losses can be incurred if the farm’s reputation is damaged.
Optimizing Options. Cummins offers a range of accessories to increase the functionality, efficiency and reliability of backup generators: PowerCommand® 500/550 – An electronic control system with remote stop/start, precise frequency and voltage regulation, alarm and status message display Alternator Heater – Prepare for harsh conditions and minimize risk with an alternator heater Enclosures – Minimize the sound levels and potential noise disturbance, as well as protect the generator from the elements.
One Source. One Call. Many contractors source an engine from one manufacturer, the alternator from another and control systems from a third. When something goes wrong, it can be difficult to know who is responsible for fixing the unit, and no one manufacturer wants to take responsibility. You can spend critical minutes on the phone trying to get ahold of the right person while your farm is on the line.
