In emergency generators (UPS, Uninterruptible Power Supply), the proper management of the heat generated by the engine is crucial in order to ensure continuity of service and long-term reliability. When the engine starts operating, especially under full load, temperatures rise rapidly, and heat dissipation becomes a key task to ensure a reliable system operation.
In Tempco, we create complete cooling systems that combine all the components needed to dissipate the heat produced by the engine and the charge air in a single solution, offering the advantage of an integrated design. This approach ensures hydraulic compatibility, ease of installation, and efficient and coordinated operation of all components.
The cooling system consists of:
• HX1 – Jacket water exchanger, dedicated to the main engine circuit.
• HX2 – Supercharged air exchanger, to maintain the optimal intake air temperature.
• P1/P2 – Pumping unit, built on a skid complete with pumps, valves, instruments, and electrical control panel.
• RAD – Remote electric radiator, installed in an optimal position for ventilation and heat dissipation.
• VEXP – Expansion tank, equipped with radiator cap, sight glass, and minimum level switch, supplied for customer installation based on the system configuration.
The system architecture can be described as follows:

The combination of the jacket water and charge air cooling circuits allows to maintain a constant operating temperature of the engine, improving efficiency and reducing emergency start-up times.
Compared to traditional solutions, where components are supplied separately, the Tempco system ensures simplified system management, with sizing and integration tailored to the engine specifications and upon installation environmental conditions.
This engineering approach combines modularity, reliability, and operational readiness, ensuring stable and high-performance cooling for emergency generators, always ready to go into action when needed.
