The WAVE Generator 1500 combines a Yuchai diesel engine, a Leroy-Somer alternator and a SmartGen controller in a sound-insulated enclosure. With a manufacturer-stated output of 1,500 kVA and a 1,500-litre fuel tank, it provides the basis for a power supply tailored to your production and infrastructure.

Interkey Brain included as standard. Earlier maintenance insights, AI-assisted remote analysis and load management with your WAVE machines, connected in one system.

Existing signals

Existing controller

Signals collected

Oil pressure, coolant temperature, engine speed, operating hours and fault codes, where accessible.

Your benefit

Understand operating conditions and identify maintenance needs earlier.

01

Plan maintenance earlier

Changes in vibration, temperature and oil pressure can indicate maintenance needs before a fault interrupts operation.

02

A closer view from anywhere

Operating trends, alerts, video and audio support AI-assisted analysis and help the service team prepare for a visit.

03

Use diesel more effectively

Load profiles and running hours reveal unnecessary operation. Coordinated control can improve the scheduling of starts and flexible loads.

04

Connected to your production

The generator and WAVE machines can exchange operating states, bringing power demand and machine starts into the same view.

Find saving opportunities. Measure the result.

Potential fuel savings depend on loading and operating conditions. Brain provides the data to identify unnecessary running time and optimise operation. Results are assessed using comparable operating data.

Interkey Brain is standard equipment on every WAVE generator and included in the price. Sensor connections and available signals are matched to the individual genset. Remote access requires a suitable internet connection.

Engine protection and voltage and frequency regulation remain with the designated generator controller.

Power your WAVE production

How many machines could it power?

The overview covers our five production models. For IC570 we assume 40 kW during operation; FD480 and FD450 use their maximum catalogue loads. The number that can actually operate will be confirmed for your configuration.

Calculation assumption: 1,500 kVA × 0.8 = 1,200 kW · less 20% planning reserve

960 kW remain as the machine budget in these examples. A power factor of 0.8 and the generator’s prime/standby ratings still require confirmation. The reserve is a chosen planning assumption.

Calculated quantities with a 960 kW machine budget, one machine type at a time
WAVE modelPower / basisCalculated quantity*
IC570MAX40 kWrunning · assumed24
BIG WAVEpendingpending
FD49016.5 kWpreliminarypending
FD48022 kWmax. catalogue load43
FD45022 kWmax. catalogue load43

* One machine type at a time; rows are alternatives. Quantity = 960 kW ÷ listed power, rounded down. The IC570’s 40 kW is a running assumption, not a confirmed peak or starting load.

BIG WAVE’s total electrical load is missing. The FD490’s preliminary 16.5 kW still needs to be reconciled with its heater and compressor figures. Both quantities remain pending.

Example: a mixed production line

  • 10 × IC570MAX400 kW
  • 10 × FD480220 kW
  • 10 × FD450220 kW

30 machines · 840 kW

This example leaves 120 kW in the machine budget; the 240 kW planning reserve remains untouched.

What final sizing includes

Vacuum pumps, chillers, nitrogen generators and ventilation belong in the full load schedule. First confirm whether each pump is already included in its machine’s catalogue load. BIGWAVE and machines without a reliable maximum load require individual calculations.

This kW calculation is not an operating approval. Starting currents, staggered starts, power factor and kVA, phase balance and generator output at the installation site must be checked before confirming capacity. A flat reserve does not replace these checks.
