Specialised workshop trailer for WA mining company

According to Isuzu, an undisclosed mining company based in WA has recently purchased an Isuzu 30 kVA Generator Set (Genset) to power a mobile workshop trailer. The semi-trailer took 28 weeks to build and was manufactured by Shepparton Motor Bodies and Major Motors in Perth. 

Brent Howard, Major Motors’ Mining Sales Consultant, says the Genset is an ideal fit for the specialised workshop trailer. “The mining company needed something that was strong and reliable and the Isuzu Gensets are top of the product range.”

According to Brent, the Genset’s silencer and rain cap, which is a standard inclusion, make the engine quieter. “For even greater noise reduction, we added the Hospital Silent Pack feature, which is an exhaust system that allows the generator to operate at full revolutions without being above the decibel reading required, which in turn makes it a quieter machine,” Brent explains. “This feature allows operators to do their work without ear protection.”



Other standard features of the Genset include a radiator with core guard and fan shroud, a Donaldson air cleaner, an oil sump plug, WEG generator with 3000 RPM application, Datakom electronic controller with remote start capability, auto shut down protection and battery box. 

The trailer also includes a lunch crib room as well as a hydraulic cylinder repair area, all fitted inside the large trailer.
