Executive Summary：
Lees Power successfully delivered 36 custom-built generator sets to a leading rental company in Chile, specifically engineered to meet the demands of mining applications.
Each unit is powered by reliable Volvo Penta engines and paired with Stamford alternators, ensuring robust performance in tough environments.
The solution was designed to overcome key challenges common in Chile's mining sector, including rugged terrain, frequent equipment relocation, stringent environmental regulations, and strict noise control requirements. These tailored generator sets are built for mobility, compliance, and durability, supporting seamless operation in some of the region’s most demanding conditions.
Project Background：
The client is one of Chile’s largest equipment rental companies, with a broad service network spanning mining sites, ports, industrial facilities, residential areas, and emergency grid support.
Mining operations in Chile are often located in remote, rugged, and dust-heavy environments. To meet the demands of these conditions, the client needed generator sets capable of withstanding frequent transportation, extended runtime, and strict environmental and emissions regulations.
This project called for a robust, intelligent, and mobile power solution, one that could deliver reliable performance in harsh conditions while remaining flexible enough for diverse operational needs across sectors.
LEES Power’s Solution：
Lees Power delivered a fully customised power solution designed specifically for the rigorous demands of Chile’s mining sector. Key features of the project included:
●Reinforced Construction: Heavy-duty canopies and skid-mounted frames engineered to withstand impact, including drop tests from heights of up to 2 metres.
●Optimised for Transport: Integrated forklift pockets, tow bars, and lifting lugs allow for safe and efficient relocation by road, sea, or site transport—ideal for frequently moved equipment.
●Environmental Compliance: Double-walled fuel tanks and sealed structural components prevent leakage and ground contamination, ensuring full compliance with environmental standards.
●Remote Monitoring: A GPS-enabled remote monitoring system provides real-time oversight, enabling proactive maintenance and cost-effective fleet management across multiple sites.
●Dust-Resistant Design: Heavy-duty air filtration systems safeguard engine performance in high-dust mining environments, supporting long-term operational reliability.
●Flexible Power Output: Each unit supports 6-way parallel cable outputs, offering scalable and adaptable power delivery to suit a wide range of mining equipment and load demands.
