Eickhoff Antriebstechnik GmbH

The unrestricted availability of energy is playing an increasingly important role. Highly efficient gas or diesel generators, so-called gensets, are used as power generators, e.g. as emergency power generators in hospitals or as temporary power suppliers in areas that are difficult to access. Another area of application is large data centres, where the unrestricted and uninterrupted availability of electricity must be guaranteed. Gensets ensure the power supply in any situation, even under extreme conditions.

Our genset gearboxes are connected between the motor and the generator, so that a frequency adjustment for the required power grid is achieved. It is possible to adjust the frequency from 50Hz to 60Hz as well as from 60Hz to 50Hz. The speed transmission is highly efficient, as the single-stage spur gears guarantee a high efficiency of >99%. The use of a labyrinth sealing system also means that the drives require very low maintenance.
A lubrication and cooling system specially tailored to the application enables easy commissioning and reliable operational availability even after long downtimes.

In addition, our service team is also available to support our customers after delivery. A comprehensive range of products, from spare parts and retrofitting to condition monitoring solutions completes our portfolio. Preventive maintenance in particular helps to minimise the risk of unplanned downtimes.
