Machine reliability is fundamental to maintaining uptime and uninterrupted production, two critical demands in countless industries such as manufacturing and construction.
For Atlas Copco’s customer, a leading producer of concrete slabs in South Africa, these requirements were met through the supply of the QES450 portable diesel generator.
The high-performance machine, delivered by Atlas Copco Power Technique’s trusted distributor, Brutes Air Solutions, is now providing essential reliable backup power to the customer’s facility in the event of a national Grid failure. The subsequent ensured uninterrupted operation of their production lines even during power outages, provides the customer with complete peace of mind.
“The QES450 presented the ideal solution for this project due to its robust design, reliable performance, ease of use and simple maintenance,” explains Philip du Plessis, Business Development Manager at Atlas Copco Power Technique. “The machine delivers immediate power and long-term dependability.”
The generator is specifically designed and engineered to deliver a practical, reliable power solution for the construction, retail and general rental sectors. Featuring integrated control systems, superior accessibility for maintenance, and sound attenuation, it stands as an optimal solution for even the most challenging worksites.
Built for quick and easy transportation between jobsites, featuring a plug-and-play installation and the ability to deliver stable power in under 10 seconds, the QES450 epitomises efficient performance and reliability, key factors for sustainable production and minimising operating and ownership costs.
The unit’s corrosion-treated, waterproof canopy and its ability to operate in temperatures up to 50°C, make this machine especially well-suited for South Africa’s harsh climate. Additionally, the market-leading 500-hour service interval and service time of under two hours enhance the generator’s appeal to customers who prioritise minimal downtime.
Brutes Air Solutions was responsible for the commissioning, delivery and installation of the QES450 at the customer’s site, completing the entire process – from quote submission to installation – in just three days.
A combined team of skilled technicians from Brutes Air Solutions and Atlas Copco offers ongoing support and after-sales maintenance to the customer, reinforcing the reliability and service excellence that have become a hallmark of both companies.
“The combination of Atlas Copco’s globally renowned quality brand and Brutes Air Solution’s service capabilities was key in offering this solution,” adds Du Plessis. “This four-year partnership is rooted in trust and a shared commitment to delivering premium-quality products, ensuring our customers’ sustainable success.”
