ARC Generator
Ensure continuous operation of your critical devices with the ARC Generator (ARC-GEN), a solar and methanol hybrid power solution engineered for use in remote, harsh, and disconnected environments. The ARC Generator autonomously combines solar charging by day and methanol-powered battery charging by night, ensuring uninterrupted 24/7 performance across demanding industrial, surveillance, and infrastructure sites.
Housed in a corrosion-resistant, powder-coated steel enclosure with IP66 protection, the unit features dual-sealed doors, concealed hinges, and anti-theft design measures including GPS tracking and a ruggedised, lockable cabinet. It is easily deployed using integrated forklift slots, pump truck access points, and adjustable stabilising legs, making it ideal for highways, construction, secure sites, telecoms, and rail environments.
