6264 A-Plant has spent €3.11million (£2.5mn) on a large fleet of power generation sets from 2273 SDMO Energy, the UK arm of French generator manufacturer SDMO Industries.

One of Britain’s largest plant and equipment hire companies, A-Plant’s purchase comprises nearly two hundred generators from the SDMO Rental Compact range in a power band between 10kVA to 150kVA.The sets are powered by the latest 3055 Mitsubishi and John Deere engines, managed by either a SDMO NEXYS or TELYS controller for monitoring; oil pressure, coolant temperature, failure to start, over speed, charging alternator fault and low fuel level.

“The fact that these sets are fully compliant with Tier 3 regulations was a significant factor in our decision to purchase these SDMO sets,” said A-Plant’s Gareth Conley.

“In addition, we were impressed with the overall smart appearance of the Rental Compact range, which means that they will not look out of place on any site, including outside events.

“Another feature that helped us to select these sets was the extended hours between recommended service intervals, which ultimately means lower costs and less manpower.”

This fleet of generators has been distributed around A-Plant’s nationwide service centres.
