Chicago Pneumatic  (0.10 MB)

International construction equipment manufacturer Chicago Pneumatic is to introduce a new range of portable and stationary generators. Strengthening its position as a complete partner to the worldwide construction industry, the generator range will complement the company’s existing portfolio of tools and equipment.

The new generators will be rolled out during the first half of the year and encompass a wide range of options to meet the diverse power needs of the construction industry across geographical markets.

Underlining Chicago Pneumatic’s reputation for ease-of-use, high performance and reliability, the new range will offer long-term operation in even the most demanding environments.

The new range of portable petrol generators are designed for use by contractors working in various locations and levels around a construction site. Robust and user-friendly, the CPPG generators will feature a simple handle design that is both labour-saving and convenient, engine alarms to protect crucial components, an hour counter, maintenance-free battery, and Automatic Voltage Regulation which improves the quality of electricity supplied. The units are also very robust, due to extra frame reinforcement, and include a large capacity fuel tank (up to 25L/6.6gal), that is reinforced to minimise the risk of damage that could lead to spillages.

As an additional benefit to operators, the CPPG units will feature extra protection of sensitive parts, such as the alternator, muffler and electrical panel. The generator also fully complies with string EU noise regulations, for the benefit of contractors working in Europe.

Chicago Pneumatic’s new stationary generators are based on a frame-and-canopy design, and can serve a variety of stationary applications (primarily for the construction industry, but also in mining and industrial sectors), with a wide range of application-oriented options available.

Features of the CPSG generator range include a high capacity fuel tank, which offers easy and fast connections for external filling; with an automatic filling kit available as an additional option. The CPSG units will also feature an advanced control panel that enables users to control and operate it remotely, and a rust-proof canopy that is bolstered with extra protection for sensitive areas of the unit.

CPSG stationary generators will be capable of operating at high working temperature, with the units designed to perform at 100% load at 40°C ambient temperature. In addition, they provide excellent accessibility and serviceability via large removable 45º doors. They are both installation-friendly, thanks to the inclusion of dual-position outlets, and eco-friendly, as a result of including a spillage-free frame, internal filling inlet and the provision of easy, clean drainage of all liquids. The CPSG units are also designed for fast, easy and safe on-site and off-site handling, with smaller units fitted with forklift slots.

Drawing from many decades serving the construction industry, Chicago Pneumatic is dedicated to delivering a range of products which enable customers to find the best possible solution for their particular application or need.

Daniel Escuer, Product Marketing Manager Power for Chicago Pneumatic, said: “The addition of these generators to our product portfolio, alongside our existing tools and equipment, will enhance our position as the trusted partner of the construction industry. As a result of our close bonds with this industry, we have been able to develop a range of stationary and portable generators that will directly address the needs of our customers, providing specific solutions for specific applications to benefit operations of all sizes and in all territories.”
