Three-Phase Portable Power!

Posted on by — Leave a comment

THREE PHASE

Our WL12000HE has been designed to produce three-phase power! Three-phase output stays constant, with each leg of alternating current separated by 1/3 of the time in a full cycle.

We created three 3-PH models available in:
120/208V
132/230V
277/480V

I know what you are thinking.. “It’s about time!”

Plug Included
These units use less common plugs, we included one with every unit


Commercial Grade Gen End
Automatic voltage regulation provides precise voltage control
3-PH dedicated windings


Industrial Honda Engine
V-Twin, GX630


15 Gallon Fuel Tank

Our Housing Process

Posted on by — Leave a comment

At WINCO, we design, fabricate and assemble our own housing components.

Fun Fact: We have the ability to provide sheet metal housing for our generators that are decades old!

FABRICATION

Each housing is constructed from galvanealed steel. A sheet of steel is loaded into our laser cutter. We generate nitrogen on-site that allows our laser to cut without impurities oxidizing on the edge.

After being cut, we form them using CNC brake presses. These machines are capable of repeatable ram movements of .0001 inches.

POWDERCOAT PAINT PROCESS

The most critical part of the paint process is the wash. We use phosphoric acid to clean and prepare the steel so the paint will properly adhere.

We have partnered with Axalta to provide all of our paints. These paints cure though a heating process. The finished product is a durable paint that will withstand time.

SOUND ATTENUATION

Preview in new tab

Our foam cutter is programmed to make precise cuts to our exact specifications.

We use half inch high temp melamine and one inch polyurethane foam. The adhesive can uphold in -45 up to +170 degrees. The high temp melamine foam is used around all components that radiate heat. This maintains safety of the unit.

The Return of the PSS40

Posted on by — 1 Comment

We are closing up the gap in our liquid-cooled, gaseous generators; by adding the PSS40 and PSS45.

Meet The New PSS Units

As WINCO continues to grow, we are dedicated to provide a bigger offering of power nodes. We saw an opportunity to not only bring back the PSS40, but also offer a PSS45.

PSS40

Standard auxiliary winding
Standby only

PSS45

Available in standby
and prime power

  • Window to view the DSE 7310 digital controller
  • Galvanealled steel housing
  • Durable powder coat paint
  • Standard battery charger
  • Cummins industrial generator ends
  • Origin 4.3L engine
  • Conform to UL2200 and CSA standards.

Meet The Origin Engine

We are excited to introduce a new engine partner, Origin Engines. Origin has more than 30 years in the engine industry plus the years of the founder’s early interests in high-performance engines.

We are using a prime rated, Origin 4.3L engine on the PSS40 and PSS45. This engine is based on the GM 4.3L that we are all used to. Another familiar design feature is the ECU and connections. The ECU is built by E Controls.

Origin Engines are built from the block, up. Their engines are built for the industrial market. Which provides engines that won’t change unless the power generation industry needs it to, not the car industry.

STANDBY

Just like the rest of our liquid-cooled standby units, the Origin engine is EPA Certified.

PRIME

The Origin 4.3L is a prime rated engine. Simply add a catalyst to bring the generator set to a prime source of power.

Are you ready to check out the new units? Click here to see specs on the PSS40 or click here for the PSS45.

We are continually updating and creating new generators. Stay tuned!

A Manual Transfer Switch for GFCI and Bonded Neutral Generators

Posted on by — 18 Comments

WINCO portable generators are designed with a bonded neutral, the neutral and ground tied together inside the panel. This allows the generator to be safely used in portable configurations.

Whenever you connect a portable generator to a building’s electrical system the NEC code requires you to brake the neutral to ground bond on the generator. This creates a new risk if the portable generator is used as both a home back-up and mobile power source since changing the neutral to ground bond should be left to an experienced electrician.

To solve this problem Winco only offers manual transfer switches for our portable generators that are compatible with bonded neutral generators. An additional benefit of these switches is that they also work with our models that provide full panel GFCI protections.

WINCO offers the Reliance XR series manual transfer switches.

The Reliance XR series are three pole manual transfer switches. By switching the neutral these manual transfer switches meet the NEC code allowing direct connection of bonded neutral generators and are compatible with GFCI protected switches.
