The reliability and durability of the generator set is critical in coastal areas or areas with extreme environments. In coastal areas, for example, there is an increased chance that the generator set will be corroded, which can lead to performance degradation, increased maintenance costs, and even the failure of the entire equipment and the operation of the project.

Salt spray test and ultraviolet exposure test of diesel generator set enclosure is a method to evaluate the durability and corrosion resistance of generator sets against corrosion and ultraviolet damage.

Salt Spray Test

In the salt spray test, the generator set enclosure is exposed to a highly corrosive salt spray environment. The test is designed to simulate the effects of seawater exposure, for example in a coastal or marine environment. After a set test time, the enclosure is evaluated for signs of corrosion or damage to determine the effectiveness of the enclosure's protective coatings and materials in preventing corrosion and ensuring its longevity and reliability in a corrosive environment.

UV Exposure Test

In the UV exposure test, the generator set enclosure is subjected to intense UV radiation to simulate prolonged exposure to sunlight. This test evaluates the resistance of the enclosure to UV degradation, which can cause fading, discoloration, cracking or other forms of damage to the surface of the enclosure. It helps assess the durability and longevity of the enclosure material and the effectiveness of any UV-protective coatings or treatments applied to it.

Corrosion-resistant and Weatherproof AGG Generator Sets

As a multinational company, AGG specializes in the design, manufacture, and distribution of power generation products.

AGG generator set enclosure sheet metal samples have been proved by SGS salt spray test and UV exposure test to have good corrosion and weathering resistance even in harsh environments such as high salt content, high humidity and strong UV rays.
