Introduced by the EU, Stage V (Regulation 2016/1628) is an emissions standard for non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) with spark/compression ignition engines. It aims to reduce emitted particulate matter and reduce harmful substances, and is an evolution of previous standards and requires controls, such as diesel particulate filters, to be applied to new NRMM.
Setting a high bar in ultra-low emission zones
As the rest of the UK starts to follow London’s lead in creating low and ultra-low emission zones, it’s critical that Stage V temporary hire power solutions are readily available.
To meet this urgent need, we started designing and manufacturing our own Stage V generators. Our Stage V generators deliver low-emission energy generation through improved technology with the following features across the range:
- 1. Installation of a Diesel Particulate Filter reduces fine diesel emissions
- 2. Selective catalytic reduction systems reduce NOx emissions
- 3. Added injection technology further neutralises harmful particulates
- 4. Diesel Oxidation Catalysts reduce CO2 emissions through oxidization
- 5. Low noise, with variable speed fans drastically reducing sound at lower loads and in lighter ambient conditions to allow for use in urban areas
- 6. Arc Flash detection and ingress protection to give better defence of the components against the environment
- 7. Internal Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)/Adblue tank matched to internal fuel capacityto ensure that DEF only requires filling at the same frequency as fuel tank refills
- 8. Two external DEF/AdBlue tank options to extend on-site refill intervals, supply multiple generators and reduce the required site installation footprint
