Contribution towards the success of 2010's flagship stadium Soccer Citys infrastructure
Company News Monday, October 11, 2010: Diesel Electric Services (Pty) Ltd
Diesel Electric Services prides themselves in their contribution towards the success of 2010's flagship stadium Soccer Citys infrastructure. The opposition were blown right out of the water with Diesel Electric Services own "vuvuzela".
Diesel Electric Services won an open tender to Design, Manufacture, Install and Commission 4 x 500 kVA and 1 x 650 kVA Diesel driven generator set on a "no break generators on / mains return system" and to Supply, install and commission 4 x 350 kVA and 1 x 450 kVA Uninterruptible Power System.
The 4 x 500 kVA Diesel Generators and 4 x 350 kVA UPS's will power the stadium lights and the 650 kVA Diesel Generator and 450 kVA UPS will power the media centre and executive suites. Protection against supply authority failure is ensured by running the stadium on Generator Power from 4 hours prior to the game to approximately 1 hour after the game.
To ensure additional protection against outages the Uninterruptible Power System with 10 minute battery back-up was installed. The reason for this equipment was to ensure that the lights and media centre / executive suites are never without power - not even for a second. This design concept was utilized because the light take a considerable amount of time to re-strike which could plunge the stadium into darkness if there was a power loss from Eskom.
A futher feather in Diesel Electric Services cap is the installation of a 350 kVA Diesel Generator to back up the Power Supply to the Telecommunications Network at the Stadium.
Other Diesel Electric Services prouducts include Rotary UPS, Static UPS, Diesel Generators, Bio-Gas generators, MV and LV solutions, SABS/NEFTA type tested LV Distribution boards, Hybrid power for Telecoms applications, Full Turnkey Data Centre Solutions and Service and Rebuilds. The staff complement is over 400 in JHB, which includes 22 contracts engineers, 38 service personnel and 20 installation teams.
