Choosing the right generator

A properly sized generator ensures your shed or dairy plant runs smoothly without overloading your tractor.

 

Key things to check after using the calculator:

  • The generator’s kVA rating should meet or exceed your shed’s load.
  • Your tractor’s horsepower must be sufficient to handle the generator output.
  • Large motor loads may require a soft-start or VSD system.

Can I safely run all sensitive electronic components with the PTO Genset?

Yes, our PTO Generators can be used to power all sensitive electronics such as computers etc as they produce such clean power, far cleaner than the grid. AgriQuip generators come standard with a digital AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator) which maintains the generator output terminal voltage at a set value, or simply put, it stabilises the power output.

What's the advantages of a PTO driven generator over a diesel or petrol powered one?

A PTO generator uses your tractor’s engine for power, making it more cost-effective and easier to maintain than diesel or petrol units. It’s ideal for farms with existing tractors, offering reliable, portable power without extra fuel or engine servicing.

Should a PTO Generator be kept out of the rain?

Yes, PTO generators should be kept out of direct rain or wet conditions to ensure safe operation and prevent electrical damage. If you need to use it outdoors, set it up under a weatherproof cover or in a sheltered area. For year-round reliability, consider a model with all-weather protection or use a purpose-built generator cover.

Do you offer finance options?

Yes, Agriquip offers flexible finance options through UDC Finance. You can apply online in minutes and structure repayments to suit your farm’s income cycle.

What’s the difference between a PTO generator and a diesel generator?

A PTO generator connects directly to your tractor’s power take-off, making it ideal for farms with existing tractor power. Diesel generators are standalone units that provide reliable, portable power for workshops, sheds, and remote sites.
