Generator Carbon Monoxide Poisoning in the News again

Friday, July 15th, 2011

 

Once again petrol generators have featured in the news again this week for all the wrong reasons, following the power cuts in the Chicago area on Monday many residents had turned to petrol generators to provide power to their homes following the storms.

It was reported on Tuesday that firefighters had come across two potentially deadly situations. In the first situation a family were running their generator in their garage, the carbon monoxide seeped from the garage into the house, the result was 5 people aged between 14 and 54 were hospitalised as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning. It’s also thought that a nearby air conditioning system may also have helped to have contributed by drawing the deadly gas back into the home.

Blocks away at a second home, a house fire was started by an overheating generator that had set fire to some combustible material.

Keep safe, follow these few simple rules to avoid tragedy

  • Generators to be used outside away from home air intakes.
  • Keep the Generator air vents and intakes free of grass, rubbish and other materials.
  • Keep the generator on a flat surface, grass free is preferable.
  • If needs be extend the exhaust to a safe distance
  • If you are in a long term use situation of more than a few days, check the oil level everyday.

 

 

Generator Welders

Tuesday, July 12th, 2011

If you have ever wondered what exactly a Generator Welder is, well its quite simple, its a welder with a generator attached. Or to put it an another way its and engine driven welder. The engine driven welder or generator welder has they are more commonly known is the ideal machine to use when welding needs to be done but mains electricity is unavailable.

Generator Welders com in many different sizes and outputs, the most portable generator welder, can just about be picked up with one hand, though we’d recommend two. The biggest of machines may weigh upwards of 250kg and require a plant trailer to transport them. Welder Generators engines can be either Petrol or Diesel powered. The combustion engine then powers an AVR electrical generator. The electricity generated drives the welder itself. On many models you can run other power tools, depending on the total output and the tool in question in some instances you may even be able to tun the welder and an additional power tool simultaneously

A diesel welder is often noisier and larger than their petrol welder counterparts and usually more expensive, but the costs seen in fuel savings on a machine with heavy usage will make themselves evident over time.

This is a piece of electrical equipment avoid getting it wet as you would any other electrical appliance.

Do not turn off underload.

Remove the load and then allow the machine to run for at least two minutes before shutting off.
