Curtis Power Solutions and mtu have provided generator sets and switchgear to some of the region's best-known hospitals and healthcare facilities.
In a medical facility, power outages can put lives at risk, cause the loss of valuable information, and have significant cost implications. With an industry-leading 85% average load factor, diesel generator sets from mtu provide fail-safe performance at facilities with low-risk tolerance. While diesel is the preferred choice for backup power in critical facilities due to its ability to accept block loads and be available within the 10-second requirements of NFPA 110, many healthcare facilities are choosing natural gas generator sets for backup power where lives are not in jeopardy or co-generation systems that combine heat and power (CHP) and operate continuously.
Along with our ongoing planned maintenance contracts, we also provide load bank testing, ATS maintenance, and fuel cleaning services to keep our hospital clients in compliance with applicable codes and standards. In addition to the required monthly tests, we can conduct a two-hour load bank test annually and can perform a four-hour load bank test at least once every 36 months per Joint Commission requirements.
