Monorail for DG Set.

02/04/2015 9:59 AM

Hi,

What is monorail for diesel generator? Is it a league kind of metal track where diesel generator rests? But it has fuel tank at its bottom. This means, diesel generator has to rest on the metal league? Is it necessary to get it bolted and get concreted?

Regs,

It may be a monorail mounted on ceiling above DG set on which a travelling chainblock could be hung to overhaul DG set.

Most monorails in an area you vaguely described are used during maintenance operations to aid in moving large components around a location that requires frequent moving of large items...........

monorail

Most large Gensets will require a permanent base to "rest" because they get real tired pushing electrons back and forth. So bolting may be necessary. Grouting (not concrete) may be necessary after leveling and aligning. I would definitely ask the the vendor who made the Diesel Generator.
