Why Hire Industrial Equipment?

In a challenging economy where agility and performance are key, businesses need to act on every competitive advantage that presents itself. When it comes to industrial equipment, this means renting or hiring machinery and power generators rather than buying. Here’s why, from Australia’s leading CAT rental team. 


Maximize available resources while minimizing operating costs 

Generally speaking, this is the central benefit of choosing to rent industrial equipment rather than buy it outright. This translates into several significant advantages, which include: 
  • Avoid upfront investment costs: Industrial cooling equipment (fluid chillers, cooling towers, heat exchangers and air handlers), commercial power generators and air compressors can quickly amount to a significant capital cost. It may take many months or even years for an organization to develop a strategy to accommodate these costs and once you’ve purchased it, that capital is locked into that equipment, which is likely to slowly depreciate in value. 
  • Prevent long-term repair and maintenance costs: This industrial equipment will require repair and maintenance over the years that your business owns it. This includes mechanical inspections to check fluids and hydraulics, replacement of worn parts, and upgrades, not to mention unforeseen breakdowns and damage. If you choose to hire your industrial equipment, then the CAT rental team will take on the responsibility of installation, maintenance, and repairs as per your agreement. 
  • Avoid logistics issues and costs: When you own your industrial equipment, it becomes your organization’s responsibility to store and move it from project to project. Sometimes, this equipment will require long-term storage while between projects which, if done incorrectly, can result in machine wear and degradation. This is also an issue for organizations that work on projects in different locations as transporting across cities and states can be expensive. Instead, a CAT rental team can simply send the required industrial equipment, including power generators, cooling equipment and more, to any site within their area. 
  • Hassle-free workplace safety compliance: Compliance with employee safety regulations, environmental regulations and others regarding industrial equipment are made simple and efficient when you choose to hire rather than purchase power generators and cooling equipment. 
  • Reduced downtime on projects: If your industrial equipment breaks down on the job at a construction site, the office or mine, the downtime is going to cause financial and productivity losses as well as frustration. You’ll then have to source and book a repair specialist and wait for their schedule to clear and parts to arrive. When you rent your industrial equipment, downtime is reduced to a minimum. Either the CAT rental team sends out maintenance specialists immediately or the unit is replaced while awaiting repairs. 

If you are looking for a CAT rental team to handle your industrial equipment needs, including power generators, speak to the professionals at Energy Power Systems Australia. We are a specialized CAT technology dealer for Australia, Papua New Guinea, and the Solomon Islands, offering designs, engineering, procurement, installation and servicing for commercial projects.

A Guide to Different Types of Commercial and Industrial Fluid Chillers

Fluid chillers in Australia are used in a variety of different industries, including the food and beverage industry, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, and chemical manufacturing sectors. Running on electrical power , this industrial equipment provides critical cooling and temperature control, and utilizing the right type of fluid chiller will optimize productivity, improve efficiency and lower operating costs.  Types of Industrial Fluid Chillers in Australia By Condenser Type   Air-cooled chillers: Air-cooled fluid chillers use the air in the environment around them assisted by fans to remove heat from the refrigerant in the condenser. It then runs the refrigerant back through the system to provide cooling. As a result, the air around these chillers is usually very warm and they are not recommended in applications where this will be an issue. These systems are often portable, available in both large and small-scale commercial versions, are relatively affordable a...

Why Cat Generators Are One Of The Best

We are big fans of Caterpillar generators.  They are better known as Cat generators .  Leaders in the generator industry, you can never go wrong with a Cat rental .  With so many kinds of generators, different models all running on different fuels, it's a big world.  Generators are excellent for energy storage .  We use them in times of crisis, as back-up options and for rural purposes.  There are many uses for a generator, it can be quite difficult when it comes to choosing the right one.  We recommend the Caterpillar generators for several reasons, as outlined below. Generators aren't toys We don't research a Cat rental for fun.  Cat generators are not toys and not for playing.  That said, some may say generators are like toys for the grown men.  Generators work to provide an energy storage bank so that when they're needed, energy is available.  Generators are an expensive item that, if looked after, can last for ...

A Guide to Load Management for Your Power Generator

Commercial power generators , also known as gensets , are critical to many commercial and industrial applications, supplying reliable, clean standby power when the grid goes down as well as to remote locations. Load management is a critical process that ensures your generator stays online and is not overloaded by demand. What is the process of load management? Every standby power generator has a set capacity and cannot supply power above that limit – this is called it’s load capacity. When the generator nears or reaches that limit, it will start shedding the load by cutting off power to equipment/utilities or shutting down completely. Load management is a process of monitoring the demand on the power generator and preventing too many high-demand loads from operating at one time, thereby preventing an overload. This is usually achieved through a mart controller integrated with an automatic transfer switch and external relay modules which allows the controller to turn loads on a...
