The WAVE Generator 1500 combines a Yuchai diesel engine, a Leroy-Somer alternator and a SmartGen controller in a sound-insulated container genset. With 1,500 kVA at 50 Hz and a 1,500-litre fuel tank, it powers your production and infrastructure. It is available in 50 or 60 Hz configurations. Brain for AI-assisted monitoring is included as standard.

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 shows planning examples for our five production models. For IC570 we assume 40 kW during operation; FD480 and FD450 use their maximum catalogue loads. WAVE plans your actual machine combination around its equipment and operating processes.

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

960 kW remain as the machine budget in these examples. The power factor cos φ = 0.8 and the 20% reserve are calculation assumptions. WAVE sizes your system individually for its duty, starting behaviour and installation site.

* One machine type at a time; rows are alternatives. Quantity = 960 kW ÷ listed power, rounded down. The IC570’s 40 kW is an assumption for running operation. WAVE accounts for peak and starting loads separately in your system design.

We plan BIG WAVE and FD490 installations individually. WAVE accounts for the total electrical load of your equipment, including heaters, compressors and operating processes.

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 your WAVE system planning includes

WAVE brings vacuum pumps, chillers, nitrogen generators and ventilation together in one load schedule. Loads already included in a machine’s power rating are counted once. We coordinate the generator, machines and accessories as one system.

The calculation examples provide planning guidance. For your system design, WAVE accounts for starting currents, staggered starts, power factor and kVA, phase balance, 50 or 60 Hz and site conditions. This determines the generator configuration suited to your operation.
