Italy-based industrial and marine generator set manufacturer Coelmo will showcase its products and solutions at the Middle East Electricity (MEE) in Dubai from 5-7 March 2019

Coelmo has been designing and manufacturing in Italy industrial and marine gensets from 3 to 3,000kVA since 1946, representing a unique model of engineering company and manufacturing excellence.

With three production plants located in Italy, an integrated management system for engineering and production, a wide distribution network and international after sales service, Coelmo manufactures gensets for different applications such as residential and commercial, telecommunications and oil and gas, military and humanitarian organisations, leisure and commercial marine, while supporting aftersales services in more than 36 countries in the world.

Coelmo constantly invests in industrial and technological R&D to combine reliability of traditional energy sources with innovative green technologies.

Oil refinery in Iraq

One of the most recent Coelmo projects for the oil and gas sector consists of 21 gensets rated from 320 to 1,500kVA each at site condition, 380V three phase and 50Hz frequency, to be installed as emergency backup for oil processing plants in the oil refinery.

Each genset is equipped with a synchronisation control panel, the electrical engine start up is by electric 24V DC starter motor and Ni?Cd battery system, each system is rated for six times consecutive starts. The gensets are installed in IP55 containers suitable for aggressive environments with the fire detection systems in compliance with NFPA standards.

The gensets are suitable for unattended operation, automatic black?starting on external mains failure start signal or on detection of failure of the Mains supply and testing in synchronisation with the Mains.

Two new lines for extreme weather

Coelmo has recently increased the production capacity by investing in a new 8,000 sqm plant in Acerra, Italy, including a new metal sheet cutting, bending and painting facility. The new production plant is highly automated plant with the aim of increasing efficiency reducing production times and costs.

Coelmo has designed two new product lines ? GK and DK series ? that will be showcased at the MEE to guarantee electrical continuity in areas where difficult climatic conditions arise.

The new lines, from 20 to 500kVA, have been designed to ensure relia b ility in desert areas and construction sites with temperatures exceeding 55?C and a strong presence of dust and sand (DK series).

Coelmo GK and DK series are made of galvanised steel with a special air filtration system with mechanical traps and anti?sand filters to guarantee a high IP rating (as optional). The large opening of the doors allows a quick and easy maintenance. The integrated fuel tank, with a capacity up to 1000L, allows great autonomy at full load. They are the best choice to meet the needs of EPC customers in Middle East and Africa.

With more than 70 years of experience and several projects successfully completed worldwide, Coelmo is also able to design and manufacture gensets also for ATEX Classified Area Zone 2 temperature class T3 or Class II division 2, either in enhanced safety and weatherproof enclosures according to EN 50019, or in pressurised enclosures according to EN 50016.
